The increased efficiency, low cost, widespread accessibility and numerous benefits of cloud computing are currently having a significant impact on the information technology sector. Additionally, it gives various Internet users faster data transmission between locations and more storage space for data. The advancement of technology allows users to store data online and access it from anywhere. To exchange data between Internet of Things (IoT) devices, a solid security and storage mechanism for authentication is required. In order to solve this problem, a unique cluster-based secured user authentication mechanism is recommended. The anticipated paradigm consists of four main phases: (a) user authentication, (b) authorised user clustering, (c) data encryption and decryption, and (d) block chain-based secured data transfer. Initial user authentication in the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) network is performed using the Query Assisted Multi-User Authentication Protocol (QMAP). The authenticated users are then grouped using the two-fold optimal clustering model (only authorised users are allowed to participate in data transfer). For the authorised users, the two-fold objectives like angular distance and trust level are computed in the two-fold optimal clustering model. The Cluster Head (CH) is chosen as the authorised user (i.e., node) with the highest trust level and shortest angular distance. Additionally, a new Meliorated Mayfly optimization method (MMO) is presented for the selection of the best CH. The Mayfly Algorithm standard version is expanded in this MMO (MA). Once the CH is chosen, the cluster's nodes communicate with one another by using the CH that was chosen with the greatest consideration for efficiency. Additionally, block chain-based data transmission is utilised for secure data transmission between nodes in various clusters. The newly proposed Optimized Blowfish Algorithm is used to encrypt the data before it is sent via the block chain. These encrypted files are kept in the cloud and sent via blocks of the block chain. The decryption operation is carried out at the receiver end. Additionally, using the brand-new Meliorated Mayfly optimization (MMO) method, the blowfish algorithm's private key is chosen ideally to increase the security level of the data being communicated. In general, data transfer is done safely. The projected model is validated in terms of encryption time, security and decryption time as well.
