The paper is focused on the security issues of sensors provided with processors and software and used for high-risk applications. Common IT related threats may cause serious consequences for sensor system users. To improve their robustness, sensor systems should be developed in a restricted way that would provide them with assurance. One assurance creation methodology is Common Criteria (ISO/IEC 15408) used for IT products and systems. The paper begins with a primer on the Common Criteria, and then a general security model of the intelligent sensor as an IT product is discussed. The paper presents how the security problem of the intelligent sensor is defined and solved. The contribution of the paper is to provide Common Criteria (CC) related security design patterns and to improve the effectiveness of the sensor development process.

“…In [7] the authors have presented a security framework discussing the cluster formation and leader election process, secure key management scheme, secure routing and their algorithms. Mann et al describes a novel re-keying function protocol for the WSN network security in [8] covering keying aspects like key establishment, deployment and key refreshment. Yue et al [9] and Boyle et al [10] have given an overview on key establishment and agreement protocols in their papers.…”

Abstract-Strong cryptographic schemes are used for securing the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Even if a strong cipher is used for encryption/ decryption of messages in any form of WSN communication, if the key is compromised and it no longer remains secret, the security of the underlying network is compromised. Therefore key management schemes play a very vital role in the maintenance of security of any system. This paper deals with a secure key management scheme for the WSN which does not rely on a single key. Rather this scheme uses a combination of all key types like 'in-network generated keys', 'broadcasted keys' and 'pre-deployed keys' to come up with a robust keying mechanism for the WSN.

As the security key management problem is of great importance in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (HWSN), in this paper, we concentrate on how to design an effective security key management scheme in HWSN based on the clustering strategy. HWSN is belonged a special kind of wireless sensor networks, which is made up of wireless sensors with multiple sensing attributes. Firstly, a cluster head node selecting algorithm which is organized by a rounding mode is presented. Furthermore, which sensor node is suitable to be a cluster head node is implemented by the selecting a random number for the given node in the range from 0 to 1. Secondly, the security key management process is made up of three steps, which are 1) initializing wireless sensor network, 2) establishing key and 3) updating key. Finally, a series of experiments are conducted to make performance evaluation by compared with other two schemes using the metric “resistance degree” and “number of alive nodes”. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can manage the security key for HWSN effectivel
