In Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), a sensor node may communicate with a small set of neighbor sensor nodes. Existing key management schemes, did not consider this communication between these nodes. They establish shared keys for all pairs of neighbor sensor nodes. When the number of sensor nodes in WSN is augmented, large number of keys is to be loaded in each sensor node, which in turn causes supplementary energy consumption. If any two close sensor nodes are seldom in the active-state the assignment of shared keys may be gratuitous, since they may be hardly exploited.In this paper, based on this information, secure and Energy-Efficient Traffic Aware key Management (EETKM) is developed for WSN. This determines shared keys for active sensors which takes part in the direct communication. In order to broadcast keys without retransmission or acknowledgements, the proposed scheme gives an efficient Re-keying mechanism. The proposed scheme attains high connectivity which is shown through numerical results. The proposed scheme is applied for various routing protocols and the simulation results shows the stronger resilience, low energy consumption and increased delivery ratio.
