Abstract: Now a days, the Internet of Things (IoT) plays a vital role in every industry including agriculture due to its widespread and easy integrations. The agricultural methods are incorporated with IoT technologies for significant growth in agricultural fields. IoT is utilized to support farmers in using their resources effectively and support decision-making systems with better field monitoring techniques. The data collected from IoT-based agricultural systems are highly vulnerable to attack, hence to address this issue it is necessary to employ an authentication scheme. In this paper, Auth Key_Deep Convolutional Neural Network (Auth Key_DCNN) is designed to promote secure data sharing in IoT-enabled agriculture systems. The different entities, namely sensors, Private Key Generator (PKG), controller, and data user are initially considered and the parameters are randomly initialized. The entities are registered and by using DCNN a secret key is generated in PKG. The encryption of transmitted data is performed in the data protection phase during the protection of data between the controller and the user. Additionally, the performance of the designed model is estimated, where the experimental results revealed that the Auth Key_DCNN model recorded superior performance with a minimal computational cost of 142.56, a memory usage of 49.5 MB, and a computational time of 1.34 sec.
