This study introduces a hybrid framework for resource-constrained IoT systems, balancing security and energy efficiency. It achieves significant data compression and enhanced cryptographic security, enabling 14-year autonomous operation for critical infrastructure monitoring.
Area of Science:
- Internet of Things (IoT) Security
- Embedded Systems Energy Efficiency
- Signal Processing for Sensor Networks
Background:
- Resource-constrained IoT systems require both strong security and long operational life, especially for critical infrastructure monitoring.
- A conflict exists between cryptographic security needs and energy efficiency in these devices.
- Existing solutions often fail to adequately address both security and power consumption for long-term autonomous deployments.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop a hybrid framework that integrates signal-adaptive compression with hardware-accelerated encryption.
- To resolve the trade-off between cryptographic security and energy efficiency in IoT systems.
- To enhance the security and extend the operational lifetime of IoT devices for critical infrastructure monitoring.
Main Methods:
- Implemented a Dynamic Payload Compression with Selective Encryption (DPCSE) framework.
- Classified sensor data into three Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) regimes for adaptive compression.
- Integrated adaptive compression with hardware-accelerated Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) on an STM32L5 microcontroller.
Main Results:
- Achieved an average payload reduction of 5.91-fold across 2714 acoustic sensor samples, with 100% detection accuracy.
- Reduced power-data correlation from 0.820 to 0.041, significantly increasing resistance to differential power analysis attacks.
- Extended projected operational lifetime to 14 years on standard batteries, exceeding industrial requirements.
Conclusions:
- The DPCSE framework effectively balances security and energy efficiency in resource-constrained IoT systems.
- Hardware-accelerated encryption combined with adaptive compression provides robust security against side-channel attacks.
- The proposed system offers a viable solution for long-term, secure, and autonomous critical infrastructure monitoring.
