Implementation of Elliptic Curves in the Polynomial Blom Key Pre-Distribution Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks and Distributed Ledger Technology [PDF]
Journal of Sensor and Actuator Networks, 2023 One of the challenges in securing wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is the key distribution; that is, a single shared key must first be known to a pair of communicating nodes before they can proceed with the secure encryption and decryption of the data. In

Grouping Sensors for the Key Distribution of Implicit Certificates in Wireless Sensor Networks [PDF]
Electronics, 2023 As sensor nodes communicate via wireless channels, information security is essential for wireless sensor networks. Efficient protection mechanisms to ensure data security among nodes are critical. This study developed the bi-directed grouping (top-down grouping (TDG) and bottom-up grouping (BUG)) methods.

Improved Key Distribution and Management in Wireless Sensor Network
Journal of Wireless Communications, 2016 Key set up and distribution in sensor network is a complex task due to inherent limitations in sensor networks. For reducing the “communication and computation overhead” we proposed that the sensor network is partitioned into different zones. Each zone has a separate intrusion detection system (IDS) and key distribution center (KDC).IDS can detect the ...
