Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) applications can be found in various industry areas, including critical infrastructure and healthcare, and IoT is one of several technological developments. As a result, tens of billions or possibly hundreds of billions of devices will be linked together. These smart devices will be able to gather data, process it, and even come to decisions on their own. Security is the most essential thing in these situations. In IoT infrastructure, authenticated key exchange systems are crucial for preserving client and data privacy and guaranteeing the security of data-in-transit (e.g., via client identification and provision of secure communication).… More >

Abstract In this study, a new algorithm of fractional beta chaotic maps is proposed to generate chaotic sequences for image encryption. The proposed technique generates multi random sequences by shuffling the image pixel position. This technique is used to blur the pixels connecting the input and encrypted images and to increase the attack resistance. The proposed algorithm makes the encryption process sophisticated by using fractional chaotic maps, which hold the properties of pseudo-randomness. The fractional beta sequences are utilized to alter the image pixels to decryption attacks. The experimental results proved that the proposed image encryption algorithm successfully encrypted and decrypted… More >

Abstract The use of multimedia data sharing has drastically increased in the past few decades due to the revolutionary improvements in communication technologies such as the 4th generation (4G) and 5th generation (5G) etc. Researchers have proposed many image encryption algorithms based on the classical random walk and chaos theory for sharing an image in a secure way. Instead of the classical random walk, this paper proposes the quantum walk to achieve high image security. Classical random walk exhibits randomness due to the stochastic transitions between states, on the other hand, the quantum walk is more random and achieve randomness due… More >

Abstract The Human-Centered Internet of Things (HC-IoT) is fast becoming a hotbed of security and privacy concerns. Two users can establish a common session key through a trusted server over an open communication channel using a three-party authenticated key agreement. Most of the early authenticated key agreement systems relied on pairing, hashing, or modular exponentiation processes that are computationally intensive and cost-prohibitive. In order to address this problem, this paper offers a new three-party authenticated key agreement technique based on fractional chaotic maps. The new scheme uses fractional chaotic maps and supports the dynamic sensing of HC-IoT devices in the network… More >

Abstract The commercialization of the fifth-generation (5G) wireless network has begun. Massive devices are being integrated into 5G-enabled wireless sensor networks (5G WSNs) to deliver a variety of valuable services to network users. However, there are rising fears that 5G WSNs will expose sensitive user data to new security vulnerabilities. For secure end-to-end communication, key agreement and user authentication have been proposed. However, when billions of massive devices are networked to collect and analyze complex user data, more stringent security approaches are required. Data integrity, non-repudiation, and authentication necessitate special-purpose subtree-based signature mechanisms that are pretty difficult to create in practice.… More >

Abstract This research presents, and clarifies the application of two permutation algorithms, based on chaotic map systems, and applied to a file of speech signals. They are the Arnold cat map-based permutation algorithm, and the Baker’s chaotic map-based permutation algorithm. Both algorithms are implemented on the same speech signal sample. Then, both the premier and the encrypted file histograms are documented and plotted. The speech signal amplitude values with time signals of the original file are recorded and plotted against the encrypted and decrypted files. Furthermore, the original file is plotted against the encrypted file, using the spectrogram frequencies of speech… More >

Abstract Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a population based swarm intelligence algorithm that has been deeply studied and widely applied to a variety of problems. However, it is easily trapped into the local optima and premature convergence appears when solving complex multimodal problems. To address these issues, we present a new particle swarm optimization by introducing chaotic maps (Tent and Logistic) and Gaussian mutation mechanism as well as a local re-initialization strategy into the standard PSO algorithm. On one hand, the chaotic map is utilized to generate uniformly distributed particles to improve the quality of the initial population. On the other… More >
