海报摘要

Lightweight cryptography is a novel diversion from conventional cryptography to minimise its high level of resource requirements; thus, it would fit in the internet-of-things (IoT) environment. The IoT platform is constrained in terms of physical size and onboard memory capacities. However, provision of sufficient security is challenging because the existing cryptographic methods are heavy to adapt in the IoT. Consequently, an interest arose in the recent past to construct new cryptographic algorithms in a lightweight. There exists a lack of literature studies to offer overall and up-to-date knowledge on lightweight cryptography. Therefore, this effort is to bridge the areas in the subject by summarising the content we explored during our complete survey recently. This work contains the development of lightweight cryptographic algorithms, its current advancements and futuristic enhancements. Additionally, this covers the history, parametric limitations of the invented methods, research progresses of cryptology as well as cryptanalysis.
