In this paper, the Secure Entry Gateway (SEG) was devised and tested, to optimize Smart Grid and Smart Irrigation systems, aiming to assess its efficiency and security in managing data within a home irrigation network. It showed promising results with a data throughput of 98 Mbps and a 97% cyber-attack detection rate, exceeding expectations. However, a 20% increase in latency and minor command response delays were noted. The user-friendly SEG, with its seamless smartphone interface, represents a shift towards intuitively accessible advanced systems. It serves as a pivotal gatekeeper in an envisioned future of interconnected smart systems, emphasizing balanced functionality and robust security, reaffirming the importance of innovative, secure, and user-friendly systems.
