Role of MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm for Providing Security to Low-Power Devices

With the growing realisation that traditional business perimeter and security architecture are no longer viable, a host of new security and risk management technologies have emerged that should be considered within the organisation. It makes sense to prioritise the protection of sensitive data because it is one of an organization's most valuable assets. The practise of preventing unauthorised access, use, disclosure, interruption, alteration, inspection, recording, or destruction of sensitive records is known as information security. Despite being cryptographically incorrect, the MD5 message-digest technique generates a 128-bit hash value and is frequently used. MD5 was created with the intention of being used as a cryptographic hash function. Because it uses less processing power than more modern Secure Hash Techniques algorithms, it's likely to be preferred. This paper presents how MD5 algorithm is used for providing data base portioning and for providing security to Low-Power Consumption Sensors.
