“…Using the secure registration protocol for plug and play [15] , using the gateway and the server, every entry and exit of a sensor can be authorized, so that tracking becomes secure. Based on this protocol a sensor has to register and de-register with the network every time it enters and leaves the network.…”

The growth in utilization of sensor networks in every field of science has compelled the research community to device a common addressing technique for sensor networks. To achieve this, we propose an addressing and naming scheme for sensors based on a hierarchical model of the sensor network in this paper. We show that, the complete scheme allows accessing and tracking sensor devices by names and inherently facilitates data aggregation. We study the performance of and optimize the hierarchical architecture and use algorithms for bounding timing delays, width and height. Finally, we suggest a gateway-based architecture to establish a secure layer above the routing protocol to perform safe communication and location tracking. From our analysis it is seen that the methodology can be adopted for various scenarios like disaster areas, habitat monitoring, target tracking, medical monitoring, battlefield, etc.

“…Here, we provide only an overview of the protocol. The detailed description can be found in our previous paper [8]. The primary goals of the protocol are to provide a secure bootstrap registration for a new media device and to establish a secure communication channel between the device and the home gateway.…”

Abstract. With their availability of high-bandwidth and extensive transmission range, Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) become a compelling technology for developing next-generation home entertainment systems. In the near future, home multimedia systems will rely on wireless networks in lieu of typical wired networks in interconnecting media appliances. Wireless connectivity will enable many novel and advanced features to entertain and comfort a home user. However, before systems are viable and widely acceptable, there are security and copyright protection problems that need to be addressed. Since the system relies on wireless communication, privacy of streaming media content becomes a great concern among media content owners and legitimate consumers who wish to protect their intellectual property against illegal use. In this paper, we present a gateway-based architecture for secure wireless home multimedia systems. We have developed a protocol to ensure secure bootstrap registration of new media devices and protect communication within a wireless home network. We have built the system prototype to evaluate the timing overhead of the device registration process and identify the bottleneck.
