In software-defined wireless sensor networks (SDWSNs), topology control is a fundamental procedure to maintain the global network topology. However, the open wireless channels of SDWSNs make it possible for an attacker to eavesdrop, replay, or modify the topology messages, thus posing a great threat to the network operations. The security of SDWSN topology control has not received enough attention yet. Identity-based cryptography (IBC) may be fitter for SDWSNs due to its capability of generating the public key from the node identity directly, compared with traditional cryptography. In particular, identity-based combined encryption and signature cryptography (IBCES) could encrypt and sign the messages using the same identity. As such, to secure the confidentiality, integrity, and authentication of topology information, we put forward a secure topology control mechanism based on IBCES. First, we use an identity-based encryption authenticated key agreement scheme to implement the authentication of neighbor nodes and hop-to-hop verification via secure neighbor discovery and topology discovery processes. Then through the node admission and key establishment process, the end-to-end secure channels are established between the nodes, sinks, and Controller. Finally, secure topology collection and management processes supporting flat and hierarchical network structures are designed to guarantee the security of topology information. Theoretical analysis shows that our methods could satisfy the security needs of SDWSN topology control and resist several security attacks. The experimental results indicate that our mechanisms are suitable for SDWSNs.

“…However, it fails to provide integrity and privacy in a resource‐constrained wireless network environment. Mezrag et al 21 proposed an IBC‐based security protocol for cluster‐based wireless sensor networks. The scheme's advantages include guaranteed secure communication and sound protection against cyber‐attacks, an efficient key storage mechanism, and lower energy consumption.…”

Security in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is challenging, owing to resource, computing, and environmental constraints. Researchers have proposed several security systems for multicasting in WSNs, but none have offered foolproof security. To make high-security multicasting a reality, the proposed I-RLNMCDS-ODMRP protocol uses state-of-the-art techniques such as identity-based cryptography, random linear network coding, the minimum connected dominating set, and the on-demand multicast routing protocol. Also, this article analyzes computation and memory overhead in the proposed protocol in terms of time in seconds and bytes, respectively, and examines its security properties. In the experimental results, the proposed protocol does not take much time to compute encryption and decryption parameters. Further, it requires little memory to store multicast message information. In the future, the proposed protocol will be tested on healthcare applications for intrabody communication through wireless body area networks.

“…The CipherValue of the EncryptedData element contains the encrypted data, whereas the EncryptedKey element keeps the encrypted key. To learn more about a certain key, go no farther than the KeyInfo element, which is a child of the EncryptedKey element [6]. The KeyInfo's EncryptionMethod field specifies the asymmetric encryption algorithm used to encrypt the session key.…”

Web-based financial, insurance, and other corporate applications have made data security a top priority. Confidentiality, endpoint authentication, message integrity, and no repudiation are only some of the security criteria that must be met by such apps. Data security standards establish XML vocabularies and processing rules for encryption/decryption and signatures/validation of documents. In this research, we offer a safe architecture for exchanging sensitive documents, which involves the transfer of files between a sender (the server) and a receiver (the client) through a central gateway using web services applications. The only files that need to be sent over the internet are those that contain sensitive information, thus it's important to design a system with built-in security measures like digital signatures. Encryption/decryption, signature/validations, and web services have all seen their fair share of algorithmic innovation, implementation, and coding.
