Abstract:
In order to study deeply key management methods for node mobility scenarios in wireless sensor networks and overcome security shortcomings of current key management schemes that ignore the security of rejoining mobile nodes, composite security mechanisms based on the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm are proposed to help nodes in the mobility scenarios authenticate their identities. Meanwhile, this scheme can solve some security flaws in other key management schemes, such as nodes are susceptible to DoS(denial of service) attacks and keys are liable to be inferred. Using 160bit ECC(elliptic curve cryptosystems), this scheme has been implemented in Crossbow's IRIS nodes with the XMTS300CB sensor boards, in which nodes in the mobility scenarios can join the network securely by establishing shared pair wise keys and local broadcast keys with new neighbors. Security and performance analysis show that this scheme can effectively prevent main attacks on wireless sensor networks. Furthermore, its computation, communication and storage overhead are low.
