Iot Based Alzheimerās Disease Diagnosis Model for Providing Security Using Light Weight Hybrid Cryptography
Security in the Internet of things (IoT) is a broad yet active research area that focuses on securing the sensitive data being circulated in the network. The data involved in the IoT network comes from various organizations, hospitals, etc., that require a higher range of security from attacks and breaches. The common solution for security attacks is using traditional cryptographic algorithms that can protect the content through encryption and decryption operations. The existing solutions are suffering from major drawbacks, including computational complexities, time and space complexities, slower encryption, etc. Therefore, to overcome such drawbacks, this paper introduces an efficient light weight cryptographic mechanism to secure the images of Alzheimerās disease (AD) being transmitted in the network. The mechanism involves major stages such as edge detection, key generation, encryption, and decryption. In the case of edge detection, the edge maps are detected using the Prewitt edge detection technique. Then the hybrid elliptic curve cryptography (HECC) algorithm is proposed to encrypt and secure the images being transmitted in the network. For encryption, the HECC algorithm combines blowfish with the elliptic curve algorithm to attain a higher range of security. Another significant advantage of the proposed method is selecting the ideal private key, which is achieved using the enhanced seagull optimization (ESO) algorithm. The proposed work has been tested in the Python tool, and the performance is evaluated with the Alzheimerās dataset, and the outcomes proved its efficacy over the compared methods
Biometrics for internetāofāthings security: A review
The large number of InternetāofāThings (IoT) devices that need interaction between smart devices and consumers makes security critical to an IoT environment. Biometrics offers an interesting window of opportunity to improve the usability and security of IoT and can play a significant role in securing a wide range of emerging IoT devices to address security challenges. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive survey on the current biometrics research in IoT security, especially focusing on two important aspects, authentication and encryption. Regarding authentication, contemporary biometricābased authentication systems for IoT are discussed and classified based on different biometric traits and the number of biometric traits employed in the system. As for encryption, biometricācryptographic systems, which integrate biometrics with cryptography and take advantage of both to provide enhanced security for IoT, are thoroughly reviewed and discussed. Moreover, challenges arising from applying biometrics to IoT and potential solutions are identified and analyzed. With an insight into the stateāofātheāart research in biometrics for IoT security, this review paper helps advance the study in the field and assists researchers in gaining a good understanding of forwardālooking issues and future research directions
