Randomized Key Exchange Protocol Implementation for Internet of Things Application

Recently, the security of public key security algorithms have been research extensively; besides, the utilization of public key cryptography requires key exchange protocol. The security of key exchange protocol is significant as it transmits the key and therefore, the security of public key algorithms depend on the security of key exchange protocol. In addition, the concept of Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) is evolving with the number of security threats. Traditionally, the key exchange protocols use asymmetric and symmetric to exchange session keys, which consumes more hardware resources and time for implementation. Moreover, these encryption based key exchange protocols requires several messages to exchange before sending the key, which cause delay in key exchange and consume bendwidth ineffciently. This work provides a new key exchange protocol with randomized initialization vector and advanced features for PFS. The proposed algorithm is simple and faster as compared to previous algorithms, the security of proposed algorithm is comparable to One Time Pad (OTP) algorithm.
