Secure Communications Protocols for IoT Networks: A Survey

Abstract

In the constantly developing area of the IoT (Internet of Things), secure communication is critical for protecting sensitive data and maintaining user privacy. This paper provides a complete review of modern communication protocols aimed at improving security in IoT networks. It addresses the distinct issues provided by the heterogeneous nature of IoT devices, their limited processing capabilities, and the variety of application contexts. By evaluating existing protocols, we may identify their strengths and limitations in the context of IoT security. We next offer a unique framework that combines cutting-edge cryptographic algorithms with adaptive security measures to ensure strong data protection. We illustrate the efficacy of our technique in combating common security risks like as eavesdropping, data manipulation, and unauthorized access using comprehensive simulations and real-world applications. This research aims to advance the development of more resilient IoT networks, fostering secure and reliable IoT applications across various sectors.
