Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have expanded rapidly due to advances in communication technologies, offering diverse applications that benefit society. WSNs rely on interconnected sensor nodes and demand secure data transmission and resource access to ensure Quality of Service (QoS) in IoT systems. However, current systems often rely on single-layer security or classical cryptography, which are prone to attacks and lead to energy inefficiency from key management tasks. Biometric or fuzzy logic-based methods also fall short in optimizing security. A lightweight, secure, and durable paradigm...
