Abstract - The world is going to be surrounded by smart objects and most of them will be physical entities that are connected and interacting with each other, this will be possible because of the advancements in the Internet of Things (IoT) enabled with 5G. The IoT contains a vast quantity of devices and substances to encompass exceptionally low or fictional processing and communication assets of a high number of devices. The 5G term is very popular in industry because it will provide high speed data transmission, sufficient radio frequency (RF) coverage to interconnect different types of wireless networks and also connects an enormous amount of personal devices. The challenge is to provide security and privacy to these personal devices. In this paper, an adapted encryption standard named as Enhanced Advanced Encryption Standard (E-AES) is proposed, which enhances the security and privacy of IoT enabled 5G network. The authors of the paper compared the anticipated E-AES algorithm next to the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) in terms of delay and area, by simulating in the Cooja simulator and implementing both algorithms in Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) using Verilog Hardware Descriptive Language (Verilog HDL). It is found that the E-AES algorithm performs better than the AES algorithms in provisos of encryption such as conversion time and power consumption.
