According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a system and method for secure, decentralized device-to-device communication in an Internet of Things (IoT) network. The system enables IoT devices to communicate directly with one another using unique decentralized identities, mutual authentication, and dynamically generated session keys, without reliance on centralized servers. A distributed trust management module continuously evaluates device behavior and updates trust scores, while a lightweight distributed ledger maintained by edge nodes ensures tamper-resistant storage of identity references, trust records, and communication metadata. The invention provides encrypted peer-to-peer communication channels, fault-tolerant operation, and scalability across heterogeneous IoT environments, thereby enhancing security, privacy, resilience, and energy efficiency."
