Abstract
With high demand of efficient data collection from Internet of Things devices, researchers’ interest in providing new data collection methods is getting growing every day. Many data collection methods have been proposed, but still more efficiency is required. In this paper, a novel and secure data collection method from Internet of Things devices has been proposed. In this paper, creation of aggregator node and data collection from nodes within a cluster mechanisms have been proposed. Integrity of data will be maintained using hashing mechanisms. In earlier scenarios, there was an issue regarding fault tolerance in a network. To resolve this issue, aggregator node will be updated after each successful transmission of data to the fog server. As the huge amount of data transmission can create various challenges in network, so this proposed mechanism will provide the better results in terms of energy efficiency, storage requirement and latency as well.
