Light patterns are generated in the Google application called Firebase in sync with the lights used in the hardware circuit. An Android project like SMART STREET is added to Firebase by following a simple procedure by just simple login/register authentication. Firebase provides security and authentication to user data and automatically stores user’s credentials using bcrypt (a password hashing function based on Blowfish cipher) so that users can keep their focus on user interface. It supports various features like real-time database, authentication, analytics, cloud functions, etc. The application shows daily, weekly, and monthly basis of active users in graphical form and text. Any new user is added through an authentication tab; add a user by entering the mail ID of that person and password for keeping it secure. Once registered, the system generates the user ID of the particular user who has enrolled [31]. Database for the streetlight pattern is added in the database option and can be modified on a real-time basis shown in Figure 12.5.

With the recent increase in computational power that attackers have at their disposal to conduct brute force attacks, the overall password strength needs to increase as well. In addition, bcrypt parameterizes the hash computation complexity with the cost parameter, which enables adjusting the space and compute complexity of the algorithm to match the increased performance of new hardware.
