Could you elaborate on the concept of lightweight cryptography? As a field within cryptography, I'm curious to understand how it differs from traditional cryptography methods. Specifically, what makes it "lightweight"? Is it optimized for use on devices with limited computing resources? How does it balance security and efficiency? Are there any specific algorithms or techniques that are commonly associated with lightweight cryptography? I'm interested in understanding its applications and how it can be utilized in today's digital landscape.
