About one lightweight encryption algorithm ensuring the security of data transmission and communication between internet of things devices

Abstract

In this paper, a new encryption algorithm Twine-Mersenne was developed based on the Twine algorithm with the addition of a random number generator for the dynamic generation of S-boxes. Dynamic generation of random numbers based on the Mersenne Twister helps to increase the cryptographic strength of the proposed algorithm. The algorithm we propose solves the issues of optimizing the costs of computing and energy resources of internet of things (IoT) devices, using a combination of lightweight cryptographic principles and fuzzy logic, and also provides reliable security and intelligent authentication of the mobile application user. The paper also considers the practical implementation of the proposed algorithm based on Arduino ESP32, a device with limited computing resources. In addition to this, fuzzy logic has found its practical application in the field of intelligent user authentication in developed mobile applications based on Arduino Studio for mobile cellular applications. As a result, the proposed lightweight encryption algorithm has proven itself to be an effective tool in ensuring the security of data transmission and communication between IoT devices.
