Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) is a leading technology, where numerous sensors with the ability to exchange information over the internet are involved. It supports various applications ranging from smart home to smart city including smart grid for calculating electricity tariff, real time monitoring and controlling traffic, Co2 emission level finding etc. Research advancements in IoT facilitates us to control or monitor the things remotely and take actions accordingly. Efficient working of the IoT, involves continuous exchange of information between the nodes which should be executed in trusted environment as this data is confidential and only trusted nodes should handle it. Current research work in IoT suggests the confidentiality mechanisms which are heavyweight and not suitable in IoT scenario. So there is a need for lightweight confidentiality mechanism. In this paper we have shown how lightweight P-Box permutation encryption algorithm can be effective in IoT. We have compared this encryption algorithm with PRESENT protocol and our results show that lightweight P-Box permutation algorithm took less time. To prove that our encryption algorithm is better w.r.t. security, we have also carried out known plaintext attack and chosen plaintext attack and shown that lightweight P-Box permutation encryption algorithm is resistant to both of these attacks. Further we have used this technique to transfer the smart meter data in Smart Grid and shown that the data exchanged between the two nodes in confidential manner.
