“…A set of defence methods based on different networking protocol layers are summarized by Chen et al [9], to show the threats and vulnerabilities present in a WSN. Abdullah and Hua [10] proposed a re-keying function protocol for wireless sensor network which uses the local administrative function as the master function. In some specific application we may need to access real-time from the sensor nodes.…”

In this paper, we propose an authenticated data transmission technique for Clustered wireless sensor network (CWSN). The proposed scheme starts by assigning the identity, shared secret key and an encryption key to the sensor nodes by the base station (BS). Driven by the technology advances in micro-electronics, it is possible to run some key management techniques at each sensor level. This step helps in authentication of the sensors and secured communication in the network. Subsequently the sensor nodes are deployed in the hostile environments, due to the self healing nature of the sensors, they will form a network to transmit the data. The secured communicating protocol described in this paper guarantees that, when two sensor nodes are in communication, they must have gone through prior authentication and key pre-distribution process. The proposed scheme is invariant to the environment where the clusters are formed dynamically and periodically. According to the message communication point of view, we are restricting the network from receiving junk message from the adversaries or compromised nodes due to the authentication and confidentiality.

-Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the combination of small devices called as sensor nodes which have sensing, computing and processing capabilities. Due to distributed nature of the WSNs, nodes are more vulnerable and can be physically accessible by an attacker; he/she can destroy the network and injects some extra bits in the information. An attacker can put some potential threats in the network. So, security is main concern in wireless sensor network especially in hostile environment. In this paper we focus on security requirements, threats and some security schemes that provide the solutions for such attacks.

“…Similarly, key establishment among sensors at the post-deployment phase is not feasible as sensors are normally deployed randomly. A link layer group communication scheme [ 23 ] for the wireless sensor networks is proposed to achieve security of the node-to-node communication. Though the scheme is independent of the key management and distribution architecture, there is no mention about data confidentiality, which is highly essential for the WSNs deployed on the battle field and similar security applications.…”

Recent technological advances in wireless communications and physiological sensing allow miniature, lightweight, ultra-low power, intelligent monitoring devices, which can be integrated into a Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN) for health monitoring. Physiological signals of humans such as heartbeats, temperature and pulse can be monitored from a distant location using tiny biomedical wireless sensors. Hence, it is highly essential to combine the ubiquitous computing with mobile health technology using wireless sensors and smart phones to monitor the well-being of chronic patients such as cardiac, Parkinson and epilepsy patients. Since physiological data of a patient are highly sensitive, maintaining its confidentiality is highly essential. Hence, security is a vital research issue in mobile health (mHealth) applications, especially if a patient has an embarrassing disease. In this paper a three tier security architecture for the mHealth application is proposed, in which light weight data confidentiality and authentication protocols are proposed to maintain the privacy of a patient. Moreover, considering the energy and hardware constraints of the wireless body sensors, low complexity data confidential and authentication schemes are designed. Performance evaluation of the proposed architecture shows that they can satisfy the energy and hardware limitations of the sensors and still can maintain the secure fabrics of the wireless body sensor networks. Besides, the proposed schemes can outperform in terms of energy consumption, memory usage and computation time over standard key establishment security scheme.
