“…As WSN distributes the data from various sender nodes via multi-path-routing procedures, the need for sender-originated IHFs is generated for the original frame sequence. In this process, each IHF holds a random number of fake data and other lookalike network credentials to thwart the attackers [ 47 , 48 ].…”

The Wireless Medium Access Control (WMAC) protocol functions by handling various data frames in order to forward them to neighbor sensor nodes. Under this circumstance, WMAC policies need secure data communication rules and intrusion detection procedures to safeguard the data from attackers. The existing secure Medium Access Control (MAC) policies provide expected and predictable practices against channel attackers. These security policies can be easily breached by any intelligent attacks or malicious actions. The proposed Wireless Interleaved Honeypot-Framing Model (WIHFM) newly implements distributed honeypot-based security mechanisms in each sensor node to act reactively against various attackers. The proposed WIHFM creates an optimal Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) channel model, Wireless Interleaved Honeypot Frames (WIHFs), secure hash-based random frame-interleaving principles, node-centric honeypot engines, and channel-covering techniques. Compared to various existing MAC security policies, the proposed model transforms unpredictable IHFs into legitimate frame sequences against channel attackers. Additionally, introducing WIHFs is a new-fangled approach for distributed WSNs. The successful development of the proposed WIHFM ensures resilient security standards and neighbor-based intrusion alert procedures for protecting MAC frames. Particularly, the proposed wireless honeypot methodology creates a novel idea of using honeypot frame traps against open wireless channel attacks. The development of a novel wireless honeypot traps deals with various challenges such as distributed honeypot management principles (node-centric honeypot, secretly interleaved-framing principles, and interleaving/de-interleaving procedures), dynamic network backbone management principles (On Demand Acyclic Connectivity model), and distributed attack isolation policies. This effort provides an effective wireless attack-trapping solution in dynamic WSNs. The simulation results show the advantage of the proposed WIHFM over the existing techniques such as Secure Zebra MAC (SZ-MAC), Blockchain-Assisted Secure-Routing Mechanism (BASR), and the Trust-Based Node Evaluation (TBNE) procedure. The experimental section confirms the proposed model attains a 10% to 14% superior performance compared to the existing techniques.

The increasing relevance and significant acceptance of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) solutions have aided the creation of smart environments in a multitude of sectors, including the Internet of Things, and offer ubiquitous practical applications. We examine current research trends in WSN using Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and the potential application of these methods for WSN improvement in this study. We emphasize the security, fault detection and tolerance, and quality of service (QoS) concerns in WSN, and provide a detailed review of current research that used different AI technologies to satisfy particular WSN objectives from 2010 to 2022. Specifically, this study’s purpose is to give a current review that compares various AI methodologies in order to provide insights for tackling existing WSN difficulties. Furthermore, there has been minimal existing related work concentrating employing AI approaches to solve security, fault detection and tolerance, and quality of service (QoS) concerns associated to WSN, and our goal is to fill the gap in existing studies. The application of AI solutions for WSN is the goal of this work, and we explore all parts of it in order to meet different WSN challenges such as security, fault detection and tolerance, and QoS. This will lead to an increased understanding of current AI applications in the areas of security, fault detection and tolerance, and QoS. Secondly, we present a comprehensive study and analysis of various AI schemes utilized in WSNs, which will aid the researchers in recognizing the most widely used techniques and the merits of employing various AI solutions to tackle WSN-related challenges. Finally, a list of open research issues has been provided, together with considerable bibliographic information, which provides useful recent research trends on the topics and encourages new research directions and possibilities.

Confidentiality is one of the fundamental aspects to consider while securing wireless communication. Endeavouring current developments will catch up with the conventional cryptographic methods soon than expected; therefore, a new path is indispensable. In this context, this article presents an innovative idea of using polynomials to achieve a higher level of data privacy. Polynomials' strength lies in their irreducible property, which makes them plausibly appropriate for cryptography. Thenceforth, two novel schemes are proposed based on root-finding polynomial interpolations such as Bisection, Newton-Raphson, and Secant. Relying on these techniques, while the first scheme performs substitution, the BI-New scheme performs substitution, rotation, replacement, and substitution. Hence, both schemes provide confusion and diffusion, a fundamental security aspect. Besides, these algorithms utilise initial points to extract the exact root of the polynomial p1(y) =0. On the basis thereof, an algorithm is developed to retrieve the initial data points. Consequently, the decryption is accomplished in reverse order by evaluating a function. The proposed scheme has unique characteristics, including non-linear interpolating polynomials, roots of non-linear algebraic equations, and non-linear functions. Due to the amalgamation of various non-linear methods and randomised variables, the methods are one-way functions that can endure several assaults. Lastly, the algorithm's security is illustrated by multiple state-of-the-art quantitative metrics such as time complexity, accuracy, memory usage, key space analysis, key sensitivity analysis, robustness analysis, and statistical analysis.
