A random key distribution based Artificial Immune System for security in clustered wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless sensor networks are associated with risk due to the threats of security vulnerabilities. In this context, we propose a scheme, which uses random key distribution based Artificial Immune System (AIS) for detecting spoofing attacks. The prospective method is for clustered sensor networks and as an example, the algorithm is executed on LEACH protocol. The simulation results prove that the design is energy efficient than the other widely used cryptographic methods while providing robust security in the network. Index Terms-ArtificialImmune System, cryptography, LEACH protocol, clustered sensor networks This packet consists of the details regarding randomly picked keys by the node and the trailer. K1 K2 CRITICAL INFO k Where, K1, K2 keys randomly picked by the node for communication with its CH. CRITICAL INFO consists of various fields including, preamble, sync bits, destination address, type, group identity, length of message, counter for message sent, source address, error checking bits, payload. k prime number picked by the node for communication with CH, which are the trailer bytes iv) Packet sent from CH to the BS W1 W2 CRITICAL INFO m Where, W1, W2 keys randomly picked by the CH for communication with its node. CRITICAL INFOconsists of various fields including, preamble, sync bits, destination address, type, group identity, length of message, counter for message sent, source address, error checking bits, payload containing aggregated data from one or more ordinary nodes. m prime number picked by the CH for communication with the BS, which are the trailer bytes.

“…The technique used is a random key hopping based approach. The randomness creates difficulty in altering the network operation by spoofing unwanted packets as the malicious nodes will be unaware of it [71]. The security issues arise in the context of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) in 5G, which is a radio system aimed at extremely high data rates and lower latency, energy, and cost [72].…”

“…Simulations using software environments or actual nodes need to be carried out in order to evaluate the performance of the protocol in practical conditions [3] The focus of this paper was on the protocol flexibility against deceptive nodes within the network that disrupt communications. Earlier studies have presented that, routing protocols are made increasingly resilient by the additionof randomness and methods of data duplication.…”
