RSA performance evaluation for privacy preserving scheme in internet of things

Abstract

A worldwide network of interconnected objects which are uniquely addressable, based on standard communication protocols is called: Internet of Things (IOT). As the Internet of Things is a large field with diverse technologies used there is a categorization of components including: Communication, sensors/RFID sensors, actuators, storage, devices, processing, localization and Tracking that each component has its own special problems of security which might be happened. The major factor which plays an important role in the future Internet of Things is Privacy. The protection of data and privacy of users is one of the key challenges in Internet of Things. Lack of confidence about privacy is one of the driving factors in the success of intelligent collaboration of miniaturized sensors. So it is needed to identify an applicable mechanism of privacy in internet of things. As RFID tags identify unique items and RFID market is growing fast and also RFID tags posing an important role in Internet of Things, various mechanisms exist for privacy. In this project evaluation of existing mechanisms in RFIDs has been considered and enhanced mechanism selected in this area. By using the Montgomery reduction for implementing the RSA algorithm and combing by hybrid method in multiplication, improvement in performance is achieved based on clock cycle counts.
