Abstract
Nowadays, the demand for natural resources is increasing, which leads to the search for new solutions to prevent its resources from becoming scarce. Indeed, this resources scarcity, such as water one, poses a threat to all of humanity. Thanks to current technologies, we are able to avoid the worst if there are going to be implemented quickly. So, several research projects are being carried out in the field of smart agriculture with the use of advanced technologies such as IoT to optimize production and reduce costs. In parallel to their works, others are focused on solving other problems according to the development of smart agriculture, in particular energy consumption and the security of exchanges between IoT objects to avoid any alteration that may impact the correct exploitation of the Smart agriculture solutions. In this paper, we propose an adaptation of a widespread techniques used in the exchange confidentiality, which is steganography, in the smart agriculture field IoT based. Our approach aims to secure exchanges with a minimum of energy consumption for common objects with a limited energy resource. The results of our experiments show low impact resources consumption when using steganography as a secure exchange solution.
