One technological trend that will not go away in the modern world is the Internet of Things (IoT). With the development of the Internet of Things, the world is becoming smarter. The efficacy, flexibility, and simplicity of deployment of IoT make it the preferred choice for most real-time applications. But energy efficiency and security are the big obstacles for the Internet of Things. Presented here are safe, energy-efficient solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), a problem whose significance this study acknowledges. Since routing is the primary energy consumer, this study presents secure routing strategies that are both energy efficient and reliable. Three distinct safe data transmission techniques for the Internet of Things (IoT) are presented in this paper, all of which aim to reduce energy usage during routing. The first part of this study lays out a clustering-and secure route selection-based architecture for safe and energy-efficient data transmission with the Internet of Things (IoT). The W-HHO technique, which is based on Whale Optimization, is used to identify the secure routes, and fuzzy-based secure clustering is used for that purpose. Encryption protocols that work in tandem with cypher block chaining ensure the safety of sensitive information. Using industry-standard metrics like packet delivery rate, throughput, energy efficiency, network longevity, etc., we assess how well each solution performs. When compared to the current methods, the outcomes produced by the presented works demonstrate promising performance.
