Abstract

Gas leakages are a worldwide threat and adversely affect the lives of all living beings. These gas leakages can increase poor air quality across most parts of the world, which is one of the primary reasons for the declining health and increasing diseases among humans and animals. It is essential to start tracking these gas leakages before they cause problems. In Malawi, due to the current shortage of energy and power, people have turned to other sources of energy and power, frequently using gas for cooking and other activities. Therefore, there is a high and increasing number of gas leakage threats, which are becoming a significant concern for our daily lives in Malawi. Therefore, controlling gas leakage will be essential. With an IoT-based system, a system has been created that can detect gas leakage and monitor safety whenever gas equipment is being used at home. It will use the Brute Force algorithm and the BCrypt algorithm as well, which is a password hashing function.

Keywords
