Abstract The highly demand concerns in cybersecurity is preventing unknowns, which evolve from time to time. Internet of Things (IoT) deployments can enable the real-time monitoring and management of the emerging fields that have been applied for critical applications like healthcare, supply chain, smart cities, and industries. This heavy dependence on interconnected and intelligent things makes it difficult to ensure security for the data and also the network devices. The edge nodes in the IoT are also exposed to large attack in the wireless sensor network. Authentication of edge nodes is a critical process to maintain the overall trust of any given network. The variety of devices comprising the Internet of Things (IoT) is plentiful; these devices scale from high potential servers to low-powered devices compatible with the heterogeneous platform like Bluetooth, Zigbee, RFID, and Wi-Fi, which are used for the transmission of critical information most of the times. These low-power edge devices are restrained to security, reliability, power management, and privacy limitations. In this chapter, proposed an Energy-Efficient Lightweight Cryptography (EELC) for low-power devices. To maintain security without compromising energy and processing, power consumptions have been formulated. The proposed security algorithms reduce the computational requirements for subkey generation, MAC generation, and overall encryption in low-power devices. From the experimental results, it is observed that the proposed algorithms reduce the key generation time and battery power consumption, and in turn, it extends the network lifetime. The proposed EELC method saves more than 30% of battery power when compared with the existing methods SHA and RC5. © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
