A Polynomial-based Pairwise Key Pre-distribution and Node Authentication Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract: Continuous advances
in the areas of sensor networks have made wireless sensor networks (WSNs)
attractive for wide variety of applications, with vastly varying requirements
and characteristics. As data sensed by nodes usually contains sensitive information,
adherence to data protection requirements is vital in WSNs. This paper
introduces a new robust key pre-distribution key management scheme using random
polynomial functions and a matrix. The proposed mechanism significantly
increases storage efficiency and enhances network resilience against node
capture. The effectiveness of the mechanism is demonstrated by security
analysis and a comparison to existing schemes.
