WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) is a network of devices that can perform data transmission from an analyzed field via wireless links. Thus, secure data transfer is needed to ensure correct data transmission from source nodes to the destination node as data passes via numerous intermediate nodes. It is significant to confirm that the network is free from malicious nodes to securely transfer the data in WSN, thereby achieving a reliable transmission. This study aims to form a cluster-based topology and then perform energy-based clustering by the proposed Hamilton Theory-based Clustering (HTC). As security is in WSN, Multicast Asymmetric Encryption (MAE) and decryption are employed. The high density of nodes makes it sense the same data repeatedly, leading to energy loss and minimized network lifetime. To solve this issue, the study introduced Algebraic Model-based Data Aggregation (AM-DA). Performance analysis is also assumed to assess the efficiency of the proposed methods.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a growing area of research in terms of applications, life enhancement and security. Research interests vary from enhancing network performance and decreasing overhead computation to solving security flaws. Secure Group Communication (SGC) is gaining traction in the world of network security. Proposed solutions in this area focus on generating, sharing and distributing a group key among all group members in a timely manner to secure their communication and reduce the computation overhead. This method of security is called SGC-Shared Key. In this paper, we introduce a simple and effective way to secure the network through Hashed IDs (SGC-HIDs). In our proposed method, we distribute a shared key among the group of nodes in the network. Each node would have the ability to compute the group key each time it needs to. We provide a security analysis for our method as well as a performance evaluation. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, we present for the first time a definition of joining or leaving attack. Furthermore, we describe several types of such an attack as well as the potential security impacts that occur when a network is being attacked.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is exceedingly predisposed to quite a lot of complex attacks due to confine resource deployment in big network communiqué vicinity. The adversary initiates a node capture attack to future WSN for snatching the private data from ubiquitous computing intelligent system through confiscating vertices (sensor nodes) for cooperating full network. We develop a Harris Hawk Optimization Algorithm for Node Capture Attack (HHOA_NCA) to identify the vertices in ubiquitous computing having higher seizing chance by attack over future network system. HHOA_NCA applies on function sensor node participation with multi objectives such as sensor node key contribution through links, sensor node contribution, sensor node energy cost, distance between sensor nodes and sensor node velocity. Key contribution is the number of keys utilized by vertices. The contribution of sensor nodes is evaluated as the association among all paths and vertices. Sensor node energy cost is obtained on the basis of energy expenditure for packet transmission through vertices over WSN. The distance between two sensor nodes is evaluated using neighbourhood degree. The velocity is measured by the stability time of a sensor node. Simulation is performed in MATLAB 2019a environment and experimental outcomes represent the greater performance of HHOA_NCA based on compromised traffic fraction, power utilization cost, attacking rounds and complexity over future WSN. The results of simulation for ubiquitous computing show that the HHOA_NCA obtains better results than MA, PCA, FGA, MREA, GA, ACO, PSO, FiRAO-PG and FFOA for single and multipath routing based on all performance factors over future network system.
