Securing data transfer in IOT environment

Abstract

New method has been developed that securing data exchange process. Third party compute module used to secure data coming over different devices to the cloud environment. The module serves as middleware between 2 dif-ferent endpoints and can handle several connections through wireless or wired connection. The OS adaptation are done in order to easy run custom software solution and adapt device to our goals. The encryption is done through symmetric algorithm, which was adapted to compute module in order to provide a high level speed and security. The two main improvements in algorithm are related to AES instruction usage and processing parallel computing. Cor-responding software solution that will manage encryption and decryption process is also described. Software solution consist from 2 parts, where first part is preinstalled in compute module and second part need setup in cloud environment. These 2 parts work together as whole system and ensure data connection securing without requesting lot of changes in exist application environment.
