WSN consists of hundreds to thousands of sensor nodes. In order to solve the problem of energy consumption imbalance cluster head is reelected in every round, while node authentication scheme is utilized for secure communication. However, re-clustering increases the overhead of sensor nodes and during the node authentication phase the frequent AREQ/AREP message exchange also increases the overhead. Therefore, a secure and energy efficient protocol, by which overhead of sensor nodes is reduced and long time communication is achieved, is required for wireless sensor network. In this paper, an energy efficient and reliable IDE-LEACH protocol for WSN is proposed. The proposed protocol is prolongs networks lifetime about average 20% compared to the LEACH-based protocols and all attending nodes in communication form BS authentication consisted of trusted nodes.

The authentication in WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) usually means the entity authentication, but owing to the data centric nature of sensor network, much more importance must be put on the authentication(or attestation) for code of sensor nodes. The naive approach to the attestation is for the verifier to compare the previously known memory contents of the target node with the actual memory contents in the target node, but it has a significant drawback. In this paper, we show what the drawback is and propose a countermeasure. This scheme can verify the whole memory space of the target node and provides extremely low probability of malicious code's concealment without depending on accurate timing information unlike SWATT. We provide two modes of this verification method: BS-to-node and node-to-node. The performance estimation in various environments is shown.

As the network composed of numerous sensor nodes, sensor network conducts the function of sensing the surrounding information by sensor and of the sensed information. Our military has also developed ICT(Information and Communication Technology) along with the methods for effective war by sharing smooth information of battlefield resources through network with each object. In this paper, a sensor network is clustered in advance and a cluster header (CH) is elected for clusters. Before deployment, a certificate is provided between the BS and the sensor nodes, and after clustering, authentication is done between the BS and the sensor nodes. Moreover, inter-CH authentication technique is used to allow active response to destruction or replacement of sensor nodes. Also, because authentication is done twice, higher level of security can be provided.

D-MAC protocol is used convergence network, which is designed to connect wireless link between things. This protocol is supported to local data exchange and aggregation among neighbor nodes, and distributed control packet from sink to sensor node. In this paper, we analysis about efficiency of power consumption according to whether or not security authentication of D-MAC in convergence network. If authentication scheme is applied to MAC communication, it is related to power consumption of preamble whether or not with and without authentication process. It is reduced to energy consumption against denial attack of service, when it is applied to authentication. Future work will take the effort to deal with security authentication scheme.

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.

In this paper, we propose a symmetric key establishment scheme for wireless sensor networks which tries to minimize the resource usage while satisfying the security requirements. This is accomplished by taking advantage of the communication pattern of wireless sensor networks and adopting heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. By considering the unique communication pattern of wireless sensor networks due to the nature of information gathering from the physical world, the number of keys to be established is minimized and, consequently, the overhead spent for establishing keys decreases. With heterogeneous wireless sensor networks, we can build a hybrid scheme where a small number of powerful nodes do more works than a large number of resource-constrained nodes to provide enhanced security service such as broadcast authentication and reduce the burden of resource-limited nodes. In addition, an on-demand key establishment scheme is introduced to support extra communications and optimize the resource usage. Our performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme is very efficient and highly scalable in terms of storage, communication and computation overhead. Furthermore, our proposed scheme not only satisfies the security requirements but also provides resilience to several attacks.

For Internet of Things, it is more preferred to have immediate access to environment information from sensor nodes (SNs) rather than from gateway nodes (GWNs). To fulfill the goal, mutual authentication scheme between user and SNs with session key (SK) negotiation is more suitable. However, this is a challenging task due to the constrained power, computation, communication and storage resources of SNs. Though lots of authentication schemes with SK negotiation have been designed to deal with it, they are still insufficiently secure and/or efficient, and some even have serious vulnerabilities. Therefore, we design an efficient secure authentication scheme with session key negotiation (eSAS2KN) for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) utilizing fuzzy extractor technique, hash function and bitwise exclusive-or lightweight operations. In the eSAS2KN, user and SNs are mutually authenticated with anonymity, and an SK is negotiated for their direct and instant communications subsequently. To prove the security of eSAS2KN, we give detailed informal security analysis, carry out logical verification by applying BAN logic, present formal security proof by employing Real-Or-Random (ROR) model, and implement formal security verification by using AVISPA tool. Finally, computation and communication costs comparison show the eSAS2kN is more efficient and secure for practical application.

Ubiquitous Sensor Network(USN) is the very core of a technology for the Ubiquitous environments. There is the weakness from various security attacks such that tapping of sensor informations, flowing of abnormal packets, data modification and Denial of Service(DoS) etc. And it's required counterplan with them. Especially it's restricted by the capacity of battery and computing. By reasons of theses. positively, USN security technology needs the lightweighted design for the low electric energy and the minimum computing. In this paper, we propose lightweight USN mutual authentication methology based on trust model to solve above problems. The proposed authentication model can minimize the measure of computing because it authenticates the sensor nodes based on trust information represented by subjective logic model. So it can economize battery consumption and resultingly increse the lifetime of sensor nodes.

A broadcast authentication is important and fundamental consideration for security in wireless sensor networks. Perigg et al suggests ${\mu}-TESLA$ used a key chain. But it is unavoidable the delay of time to authenticate packets. so it is hard to meet the property that most application of sensor are performed in real-time. To cope with these problems we propose an efficient broadcast authentication scheme which has no delay of time and provides re-keying mechanism. we also describe an analysis of security and efficiency for this scheme.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are an emerging technology and offers economically viable monitoring solution to many challenging applications. However, deploying new technology in hostile environment, without considering security in mind has often proved to be unreasonably unsecured. Apparently, security techniques face many critical challenges in WSNs like data security and secrecy due to its hostile deployment nature. In order to resolve security in WSNs, we propose a novel and efficient secure framework called TriSec: a secure data framework for wireless sensor networks to attain high level of security. TriSec provides data confidentiality, authentication and data integrity to sensor networks. TriSec supports node-to-node encryption using PingPong-128 stream cipher based-privacy. A new PingPong-MAC (PP-MAC) is incorporated with PingPong stream cipher to make TriSec framework more secure. PingPong-128 is fast keystream generation and it is very suitable for sensor network environment. We have implemented the proposed scheme on wireless sensor platform and our result shows their feasibility.
