Post-quantum cryptography for Multiple high-resolution millimeter wave images for enhanced security in IOT Networks
P Govindhan, Krishan Kumar · 2024
In the current era, the exponential rise in security threats is a significant concern, extending beyond the realm of the Internet of Things (IoT). The data being transferred and stored requires a robust encryption and decryption mechanism. The existing system utilizes the SHA algorithm and various encryption methods to secure image data. However, with the evolution of next-generation networks, quantum techniques pose a potential threat to decrypting existing cryptographic methodologies. These quantum techniques can extract data from the internet today and process it in the future. To address this looming cybersecurity challenge, this paper proposes a novel technique—a post-quantum cryptographic method designed to withstand quantum attacks in the near future. Specifically, the paper introduces a wavelength multiplexing embedded post-quantum technique capable of encrypting multiple high-resolution Millimeter-wave images. Each image, representing a pixel value of 4160 horizontally and 3120 vertically, contributes to the overall security of the method. The proposed wavelength multiplexing method is compared with the BBM92 protocol in terms of processing speed, confidentiality, integrity, and nonrepudiation. Post quantum cryptographic method works in the quantum computers are fast, reliable in qubits ensures authentication, verify the identity of a system in IOT networks make the scope to support the future networks working in quantum environment and simulation environment shows a promising result in terms of encrypt time, and sum rate of the cryptographic system models.
