Fortified Data Transmission for IoT: Leveraging Trustless Networks with Adaptive Security and Energy Efficiency

Vinod Veeramachaneni

Abstract


With the rapid adoption of IoT devices in various sectors, ensuring secure and efficient data transmission in untrusted environments has become increasingly critical. This study introduces an innovative, adaptive security protocol designed specifically for IoT devices operating in trustless networks. The proposed system enhances data integrity and confidentiality by integrating lightweight encryption algorithms alongside dynamic key management and anomaly-based intrusion detection. Performance evaluation demonstrates that our approach reduces energy consumption by 28%, enhances data throughput by 34%, and decreases latency by 20% compared to existing methods. Additionally, the protocol achieves a 97% accuracy rate in detecting potential intrusions, significantly bolstering device resilience in untrusted environments. These improvements contribute to more secure, efficient IoT operations across various applications, including healthcare, smart cities, and industrial automation.
