A Framework for Secure and Survivable Wireless Sensor Networks

Blog Article

Wireless sensor networks increasingly become viable solutions tomany challenging problems and will successively 8x4.25 be deployed in many areas inthe future.A wireless sensor network (WSN) is vulnerable to security attacksdue to the insecure communication channels, limited computational andcommunication capabilities and unattended nature of sensor node devices,limited energy resources and memory.Security and survivability of thesesystems are receiving increasing attention, particularly critical infrastructureprotection.So we need to design a framework that provide both security andsurvivability for WSNs.To meet this goals, we propose a framework for secureand survivable WSNs and we present a key management scheme as a case studyto prevent the sensor networks being compromised by an adversary.

This paperalso considers survivability strategies for the sensor network against a variety ofthreats that can lead focusrite rednet r1 to the failure of the base station, which represents a centralpoint of failure.
