SUMMARYEstablishing trust measurements among peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is fast becoming a de-facto standard, and a fair amount of work has been done in the area of trust aggregation and calculation algorithms. However, the area of developing secure underlying protocols to distribute and access the trust ratings in the overlay network has been relatively unexplored. We propose an elliptic curve-based trust management protocol for P2P systems, which is designed to provide authentication and signature functions to protect the processes of trust value query and rating report. Additionally, instead of using single identities, the protocol generates two verifiable pseudonyms, one is used for transaction, the other is applied when the peer acts as a trust holding peer. A security analysis shows that the proposed protocol is extremely secure in the face of a variety of possible attacks.

“…Therefore, public key cryptography (PKC) was thought to be forbiddingly computationally expensive, although it could provide much simplified solutions with much stronger security strengths. However, recent studies [4], [5] showed that, contrary to widely held beliefs, PKC with software implementations only is very viable on sensor nodes. With the advance of fast growing technology, PKC is no longer impractical for WSNs [6], although still expensive for the current generation of sensor nodes.…”

SUMMARYSecurity and privacy of wireless sensor networks are key research issues recently. Most existing researches regarding wireless sensor networks security consider homogenous sensor networks. To achieve better security and performance, we adopt a heterogeneous wireless sensor network (HWSN) model that consists of physically different types of sensor nodes. This paper presents a secure message distribution scheme with configurable privacy for HWSNs, which takes advantage of powerful highend sensor nodes. The scheme establishes a message distribution topology in an efficient and secure manner. The sensor node only need generate one signature for all the messages for all the users, which can greatly save the communication and computation cost of the sensor node. On the other hand, the user can only know the messages that let him know based on a pre-set policy, which can meet the requirement of the privacy. We show that the scheme has small bandwidth requirements and it is resilient against the node compromise attack. key words: configurable privacy authenticated encryption, message distribution, wireless sensor networks

Abstract. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a new security protocol based on Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems (ECC) for securing Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Some public-key-based protocols such as TinyPK and EccM 2.0 have already been proposed in response. However, they exhibit poor performance. Moreover, they are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks. We propose a cluster-based Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) for efficiency and security during the pairwise key setup and broadcast authentication phases, respectively. We have implemented our protocol on 8-bit, 7.3828-MHz MICAz mote. The experimental results indicate the feasibility of our protocol for WSNs.
