Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) play a pivotal role in diverse applications, from environmental monitoring to industrial automation, necessitating robust security mechanisms to protect sensitive data. This paper investigates the efficacy of the Hashing Semantic Cipher Network (HSCN) in enhancing data security and classification accuracy within WSNs. The HSCN framework integrates semantic hashing (SHA-256) for data integrity verification and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for secure data transmission, bolstered by blockchain technology for immutable transaction validation. Experimental evaluations demonstrate the HSCN’s effectiveness, achieving high rates of data integrity verification (98%) and blockchain validation (95%), alongside efficient encryption processes (0.5 ms per packet on average). Classification experiments employing SVM, Random Forest, and Neural Network models on multiple datasets underscore the HSCN’s capability in achieving accuracy rates up to 94% and superior F1-scores, with the Neural Network consistently outperforming other models. These findings highlight the HSCN’s potential to fortify WSNs against data breaches while optimizing classification performance, thereby advancing the reliability and security of IoT ecosystems.
