“…1600 data records have been used for verifying the offered method, which shows that the probability of data being changed is almost zero, and the possibility of data being altered is extremely slight [3]. The authors [4] discussed the blockchain-based approach for optimal and secure routing in wireless sensor networks. They focused on WSN, Blockchain, traffic load, SINR, digital signature, and security.…”

<p>The study will shed light on the proposed system of WSN security for the sensor data transmission using the blockchain. The system will be presented according to the research and practical implications of the blockchain systems. The paper proposes a method for enhancing the data security of wireless sensor networks based on blockchain technology which makes the transfer data of the system challenging to be tamped. The aimed system utilizes a hash value representation calculated by the Merkel-tree algorithm. We offer a particular method of constructing a hash function from a compression function. This construction has the property that the resulting hash function satisfies desirable security properties, such as collision resistance, given that the compression function does. Moreover, the proposed system will implement the most secure algorithms that help to ensure better security for the WSN systems to transmit data.</p>

Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging domain in which different devices communicate with each other through minimum human intervention. IoT devices are usually operated in hostile and unattended environments. Moreover, routing in current IoT architecture becomes inefficient due to malicious and unauthenticated nodes' existence, minimum network lifetime, insecure routing, etc. This paper proposes a lightweight blockchain based authentication mechanism where ordinary sensors' credentials are stored. As IoT nodes have a short lifespan due to energy depletion, few credentials are stored in the blockchain to achieve lightweight authentication. Moreover, the route calculation is performed by a genetic algorithm enabled software defined network controller, which is also used for on-demand routing to optimize the energy consumption of the nodes in the IoT network. Furthermore, a route correctness mechanism is proposed to check the existence of malicious nodes in the calculated route. Moreover, a detection mechanism is proposed to restrict the malicious nodes' activities, while a malicious node's list is maintained in the blockchain, which is used in the route correctness mechanism. The proposed model is evaluated by performing intensive simulations. The effectiveness of the proposed model is depicted in terms of gas consumption, which shows the optimized utilization of resources. The residual energy of the network shows optimized route calculation, while the malicious node detection method shows the number of packets dropped.
