Secure Hybrid Scheme For Securing Mqtt Protocol Based On Enhanced Symmetric Algorithm

Internet of Things (IoT) enables device and machine communication using TCP/IP protocol. Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is the most preferred protocol and is expected to be the de facto messaging IoT standard. Therefore, MQTT must achieve efficient security. Nevertheless, the most signif...
