An Effective Secured Privacy-Protecting Data Aggregation Method in IoT

Abstract
Because privacy concerns in IoT devices are the most sensitive of all the difficulties, such an extreme growth in IoT usage has an impact on the privacy and life spans of IoT devices, because until now, all devices communicated one to one, resulting in high traffic that may shorten the life of unit nodes. In addition, delivering data repeatedly increases the likelihood of an attacker attacking the system. Such traffic may exacerbate security concerns. The employment of an aggregator in the system as an intermediary between end nodes and the sink may overcome these problems. In any system with numerous sensors or nodes and a common controller or sink, we can use an intermediate device to combine all of the individual sensor data and deliver it to the sink in a single packet. Aggregator is the name given to such a device or component. Data aggregation is carried out to decrease traffic or communication overhead. In general, this strategy helps to extend the life of a node while also reducing network transmission.
