I bet the admin is thinking, 'If I can't read the data, neither can the hackers!' Gotta love that IoT security mindset.

MD5? Oh, please, that's a hash function, not an encryption algorithm. The admin should probably just ask Siri for the answer at this point.

3DES? What is this, the 90s? That's so last century. The admin needs to upgrade their crypto knowledge.

User 1: Maybe the admin should consider using IPSec instead.

IPSec? Hmm, that's more for securing network connections, not local data on the gateways. I think the admin needs to dig deeper.

Yeah, 3DES would be a better choice for encrypting the data stored on the IoT gateways.

I'm not sure, but I think Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) could also be a good option for securing data on IoT gateways.

I agree with Tayna, 3DES is a strong encryption standard that would be effective in securing data on remote IoT gateways.

I think the administrator would most likely implement Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) to ensure data is unreadable.

HTTPS? Really? That's for securing web traffic, not protecting IoT data storage. Let's get real here.
