      <abstract>
        <p>As IoT devices grow, contact safety is critical. IoT devices lack computer power and connection, making it difficult to collect precise, exclusive data. Elliptic Curve encryption (ECC), which is short, invulnerable, and has smaller key sizes than other methods, is used on this site to recommend secure verbal interaction. The proposed protocol addresses IoT security concerns by providing robust encryption, identification, and key exchange techniques optimised for restricted IoT device sources. The protocol streamlines verbal conversation and accelerates computations using ECC. For many great IoT bundles, this is best. Tests of the protocol’s protection and velocity policies show that it can safeguard IoT networks from numerous hacking risks. The findings demonstrate that ECC-based methods are viable and flexible for secure IoT communication.</p>
