tscp (tiny secure communication protocol)

tscp

An E2EE (endpoint-to-endpoint encryption) is possible to implement on resource constraint microcontrollers using a high-level programming language. A secure protocol based on a well-known key-exchange technique Diffie-Hellman-Merkle and TLS1.3 style session-key negotiation is implemented and tested.

Large primes are not needed in the modified DHM key-exchange protocol pow(x,b)%P == pow(y,a)%P. MicroPython modules are developed to provide identification, authentication, and privacy of messages between two communicating end-points. The limiting factor of large integers arithmetic in Python is the amount of runtime time RAM available. An end-to-end is an application-level protocol and thus can be used for any form of message exchange.

This work entitled Simple E2EE Secure Communication Protocol for Tiny IoT Devices was submitted to The 19th. International Conference on Cooperative Design, Visualization and Engineering - CDVE2022. The proceedings book will be published by the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
