Closed mightChamp closed 3 years ago

mightChamp commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I want to know about data security in Lora Mesh Network, is it encrypted? And How can I used two or more different Lora Mesh network at same place, like zigbee ?

Thank You

Hey mightChamp,

The RadioHead encryption is AES128 if I am not mistaken when using the encrypted driver. Note that this implementation is not perfect, for example it using ECB mode, but will protect against most trying to listen in or tamper. You can operate two RadioHead networks at a time by putting them on different frequencies, which if you use other solutions is like using another channel.

Notice that I am putting focus on "RadioHead", RadioHead is just a library to use the LoRa radios that is easy for hobbyist to use, and does not cover all of the subject "LoRa Mesh Networks".
