The paper aims to do a survey along with a comparative analysis of the various cryptography libraries that are applicable in the field of Internet of Things (IoT). The first half of the paper briefly introduces the various cryptography libraries available in the field of cryptography along with a list of all the algorithms contained within the libraries. The second half of the paper deals with cryptography libraries specifically aimed for application in the field of Internet of Things. The various libraries and their performance analysis listed down in this paper are consolidated from various sources with the aim of providing a single comprehensive repository for reference to the various cryptography libraries and the comparative analysis of their features in IoT.

With the emergence of 5G, Internet of Things (IoT) has become a center of attraction for almost all industries due to its wide range of applications from various domains. The explosive growth of industrial control processes and the industrial IoT, imposes unprecedented vulnerability to cyber threats in critical infrastructure through the interconnected systems. This new security threats could be minimized by lightweight cryptography, a sub-branch of cryptography, especially derived for resource-constrained devices such as RFID tags, smart cards, wireless sensors, etc. More than four dozens of lightweight cryptography algorithms have been proposed, designed for specific application(s). These algorithms exhibit diverse hardware and software performances in different circumstances. This paper presents the performance comparison along with their reported cryptanalysis, mainly for lightweight block ciphers, and further shows new research directions to develop novel algorithms with right balance of cost, performance and security characteristics.
Bitcoin has emerged as a revolutionary payment system with its decentralized ledger concept however it has significant problems such as high transaction fees and long confirmation times. Lightning Network (LN), which was introduced much later, solves most of these problems with an innovative concept called off-chain payments. With this advancement, Bitcoin has become an attractive venue to perform micro-payments which can also be adopted in many IoT applications (e.g. toll payments). Nevertheless, it is not feasible to host LN and Bitcoin on IoT devices due to the storage, memory, and processing requirements. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an efficient and secure protocol that enables an IoT device to use LN through an untrusted gateway node. The gateway hosts LN and Bitcoin nodes and can open & close LN channels, send LN payments on behalf of the IoT device. This delegation approach is powered by a (2,2)-threshold scheme that requires the IoT device and the LN gateway to jointly perform all LN operations which in turn secures both parties funds. Specifically, we propose to thresholdize LNs Bitcoin public and private keys as well as its commitment points. With these and several other protocol level changes, IoT device is protected against revoked state broadcast, collusion, and ransom attacks. We implemented the proposed protocol by changing LNs source code and thoroughly evaluated its performance using a Raspberry Pi. Our evaluation results show that computational and communication delays associated with the protocol are negligible. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that implemented threshold cryptography in LN.
Differential privacy (DP) has arisen as the state-of-the-art metric for quantifying individual privacy when sensitive data are analyzed, and it is starting to see practical deployment in organizations such as the US Census Bureau, Apple, Google, etc. There are two popular models for deploying differential privacy - standard differential privacy (SDP), where a trusted server aggregates all the data and runs the DP mechanisms, and local differential privacy (LDP), where each user perturbs their own data and perturbed data is analyzed. Due to security concerns arising from aggregating raw data at a single server, several real world deployments in industry have embraced the LDP model. However, systems based on the LDP model tend to have poor utility - a gap in the utility achieved as compared to systems based on the SDP model. In this work, we survey and synthesize emerging directions of research at the intersection of differential privacy and cryptography. First, we survey solutions that combine cryptographic primitives like secure computation and anonymous communication with differential privacy to give alternatives to the LDP model that avoid a trusted server as in SDP but close the gap in accuracy. These primitives introduce performance bottlenecks and necessitate efficient alternatives. Second, we synthesize work in an area we call DP-Cryptography - cryptographic primitives that are allowed to leak differentially private outputs. These primitives have orders of magnitude better performance than standard cryptographic primitives. DP-cryptographic primitives are perfectly suited for implementing alternatives to LDP, but are also applicable to scenarios where standard cryptographic primitives do not have practical implementations. Through this unique lens of research taxonomy, we survey ongoing research in these directions while also providing novel directions for future research.
In recent years, there has been a massive increase in the amount of Internet of Things (IoT) devices as well as the data generated by such devices. The participating devices in IoT networks can be problematic due to their resource-constrained nature, and integrating security on these devices is often overlooked. This has resulted in attackers having an increased incentive to target IoT devices. As the number of attacks possible on a network increases, it becomes more difficult for traditional intrusion detection systems (IDS) to cope with these attacks efficiently. In this paper, we highlight several machine learning (ML) methods such as k-nearest neighbour (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), naive Bayes (NB), random forest (RF), artificial neural network (ANN), and logistic regression (LR) that can be used in IDS. In this work, ML algorithms are compared for both binary and multi-class classification on Bot-IoT dataset. Based on several parameters such as accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and log loss, we experimentally compared the aforementioned ML algorithms. In the case of HTTP distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, the accuracy of RF is 99%. Furthermore, other simulation results-based precision, recall, F1 score, and log loss metric reveal that RF outperforms on all types of attacks in binary classification. However, in multi-class classification, KNN outperforms other ML algorithms with an accuracy of 99%, which is 4% higher than RF.
Network Forensics (NFs) is a branch of digital forensics which used to detect and capture potential digital crimes over computer networked environments crime. Network Forensic Tools (NFTs) and Network Forensic Processes (NFPs) have abilities to examine networks, collect all normal and abnormal traffic/data, help in network incident analysis, and assist in creating an appropriate incident detection and reaction and also create a forensic hypothesis that can be used in a court of law. Also, it assists in examining the internal incidents and exploitation of assets, attack goals, executes threat evaluation, also by evaluating network performance. According to existing literature, there exist quite a number of NFTs and NTPs that are used for identification, collection, reconstruction, and analysing the chain of incidents that happen on networks. However, they were vary and differ in their roles and functionalities. The main objective of this paper, therefore, is to assess and see the distinction that exist between Network Forensic Tools (NFTs) and Network Forensic Processes (NFPs). Precisely, this paper focuses on comparing among four famous NFTs: Xplico, OmniPeek, NetDetector, and NetIetercept. The outputs of this paper show that the Xplico tool has abilities to identify, collect, reconstruct, and analyse the chain of incidents that happen on networks than other NF tools.
