A Lightweight Pseudorandom Number Generator for Securing the Internet of Things

Lightweight cryptography aims to address the security demands in resource-constrained hardware and software environments, such as the Internet of Things (IoT). These constraints severely limit solutions offered by conventional cryptographic primitives, which turn too expensive to achieve. In this pa...
