  • This paper proposes an efficient mechanism of node membership verification within the groups of sensors in a wireless sensor network (WSN). We utilize one-way accumulator to check the memberships of the legitimate nodes in a secure way. Our scheme also supports the addition and deletion of nodes in the groups in the network. Our analysis shows that, our scheme could be well-suited for the resource constrained sensors in a sensor network and it provides a lightweight mechanism for secure node membership verification in WSN.

  • Lots of researches have been focusing on ubiquitous computing which means wherever, whenever, whatever the required information must be accessible. In ubiquitous computing environment, ubiquitous sensor network (USN) is the basis technology for gathering and transferring the required information. However sensor network characteristically has more severe vulnerability than the existing networks do. The paper presents operation of secure protocols for delivering information in secure in ubiquitous computing environment and show improvement of the secure transferring protocol.

  • We propose a specific ubiquitous sensor network (USN) architecture as a promising candidate of the future telemedicine model which offers the patient's mobility and more cost-efficient medical care system. This new USN architecture is a kind of cell-based secure sensor network supporting encrypted multi-casting communications and it has a hybrid routing protocol by adapting flat routing to hierarchical routing. For the patient's privacy and the protection of patient's vital information from eavesdropping, we adopt a lightweight PKI-based secure communication protocol with some formal presentation on its core procedure.

  • A wireless sensor network is being actively researched around the world that are connected to the mesh are a plurality of sensor nodes in a wireless manner that span different regions of the techniques. However, wireless communications use the limitation of resources, so it is very weak due to the properties of the network itself secure in comparison to the normal network. Wireless sensor network is divided into tapped-based attacks, forgery based attacks, denial of service attacks based largely by securities laws must defend against various attacks such as insertion of the wrong information being sent eavesdropping or modification of information, which is usually sensor network applications need to do. The countermeasure of sensor network attack is described in this research, and it will contribute to establish a secure sensor network communication.

  • For reliable sensor network communication, secure data transmission mechanisms are necessary. In our work, for secure communication, we cluster the network field in hexagonal shape and deploy nodes according to Gaussian distribution. After node deployment, clusterheads and gateway nodes in each cluster play the role of aggregating and delivering the sensed data with suity information all the way to the base station. Our mechanism decreases the overhead and provides food performance. It also has resilience against various routing attacks.

  • Ubiquitous Sensor Network consists of a number of sensor nodes with a limited computation power and limited communication capabilities, and a sensor node is able to communicate with each other at anytime and in any place. Due to the rapid research and development in sensor networks, it will rapidly grow into environments where hmm beings can interact in an intuitive way with sensing objects which can be PDAs, sensors, or even clothes in the future. We are aiming at realizing an Unattended Secure Security System to apply it to Ubiquitous Sensor Network. In this paper, the vulnerabilities in the Unattended security system are identified, and a new protocol called OMAC-SNEP is proposed for the Unattended Secure Security System. Because the CBC-MAC in SNEP is not secure unless the message length is fixed, the CBC-MAC in SNEP was replaced with OMAC in SNEP. We have shown that the proposed protocol is secure for my bit length of messages and is almost as efficient as the CBC-MAC with only one key. OMAC-SNEP can be used not only in Unattended Security System, but also any other Sensor Networks.

  • Wireless sensor network (WSN) is expected to be used in many applications. However, sensor nodes still have some secure problems to use them in the real applications. They are typically deployed on open, wide, and unattended environments. An adversary using these features can easily compromise the deployed sensor nodes and use compromised sensor nodes to inject fabricated data to the sensor network (false data injection attack). The injected fabricated data drains much energy of them and causes a false alarm. To detect and drop the injected fabricated data, a filtering-based security method and adaptive methods are proposed. The number of different partitions is important to make event report since they can make a correctness event report if the representative node does not receive message authentication codes made by the different partition keys. The proposed methods cannot guarantee the detection power since they do not consider the filtering scheme. We proposed clustering method for filtering-based secure methods. Our proposed method uses fuzzy system to enhance the detection power of a cluster.

  • Mobile devices do not need the fixed network infrastructure in ad-hoc network, these devices communicate each other through the distributed control. Accordingly, mobile devices can discover several services using dynamic searching method and provide safely public ownership of these services. Ad-hoc network needs the distributed control and topology of dynamic network because the limited power for processing and network communication. This paper is devoted to provide the secure protocol that provides efficient services discovery using SDP(Service Discovery Protocol) and considers the security requirements. Proposed protocol provides the distributed control based on PKI without central server, the discovery of trusted service, secure telecommunication, the identification among mobile devices, and service access control by user authority.

  • A secure data gathering in a Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) has given attention to one of security issues. In general, the process of secure data gathering causes difficulties: one process is exchanging the secured data and the other is constructing secured data path. The previous studies have been resolving the difficulties in terms of two problems: security and data gathering in WSNs. However, a WSN requires a protocol that has to guarantee a security of path between sensors and sink, or a cluster head. Thus how to gather data securely is an important issue. In this paper, we propose a secure data gathering protocol over WSNs, which consists of hierarchical key settlement and secure path construction, and aims at tackling two problems. The proposed protocol causes little overhead to sensor nodes for secured key settlement and path construction. This work provides security analysis focused on the key settlement protocol and evaluates network performance for the proposed data gathering protocol through simulation.

  • Internet of Things has a wide range of vulnerabilities are exposed to information security threats. However, this does not deal with the basic solution, the vaccine does not secure encryption for the data transmission. The encryption and authentication message transmitted from one node to the construction of the secure wireless sensor networks is required. In order to satisfy the constraint, and security requirements of the sensor network, lightweight encryption and authentication technologies, the light key management technology for the sensor environment it is required. Mandatory sensor network security technology, privacy protection technology subchannel attack prevention, and technology. In order to establish a secure wireless sensor networks encrypt messages sent between the nodes and it is important to authenticate. Lightweight it shall apply the intrusion detection mechanism functions to securely detect the presence of the node on the network. From the sensor node is not involved will determine the authenticity of the terminal authentication technologies, there is a need for a system. Network security technology in an Internet environment objects is a technique for enhancing the security of communication channel between the devices and the sensor to be the center.
