“…In this section we made a survey on the traditional algorithm like AES, DES, 3DES, blowfish algorithm and made a comparison among them based on the basic features like key size, block size, number of rounds taken to encrypt or decrypt the data by those algorithm as well as we highlighted the cryptanalysis attacks which are able to break the security of those algorithms . [17] to eliminate the probabilities of node compromise and node capture attacks in wireless sensor networks. Based on two major block elements i.e.…”

Science and Technology are updating rapidly. Data are transferred through various communicative mediums. Hence always there been a major requirement of confidentiality and secure authorization of information to prevent the unauthorised access and attacks. Symmetric key cryptography is an integral part of cryptographic technique which ensures high security and confidentiality of data transmitted through the communication channel using a common key for both encryption and decryption. There are so many traditional symmetric key algorithms as well as some proposed algorithms which can provide high confidentiality along with authorized access of data. In this paper we made a comparison analysis of some of those proposed algorithms as well as the traditional algorithms of symmetric cryptography with the merits and demerits of those different types algorithm.

Node capture attack is one of the most dreadful security attack exist in wireless sensor networks. An adversary steals cryptographic key information from a captured node to compromise entire network. So, Security of wireless sensor network is an important issue for maintaining confidentiality and integrity of wireless links. Now-a-days, researchers are paying attention towards developing security schemes against Node capture attack. Our survey provides deep insights of existing modeling techniques of node capture attack in wireless sensor network. It also analyzes various detection and key predistribution schemes for inventing a new scheme to improve resilience against node capture attack..

“…Though a node pretends to be a forgery CA and issues certificates with Q CA , eventually the fake certificates and public keys are disclosed during the key establishment phase (i.e., calculating K U V = d U Q V ). We assume that the CH can identify compromised nodes using beacon message technique, as explained in references [9] and [4]. Then the CA will broadcast the compromised node ID to the non-compromised nodes.…”

“…Sensor nodes can reach the corresponding CH by single or multiple hops. Finally, physical node capturing attacks are to be identified by beacon messages as explained in references [9] and [4]. When one node is compromised the CH will identify it and broadcast its ID to the cluster.…”

“…The network is constructed with one or few powerful base stations and thousands to millions of sensor nodes, which are inherently resources restricted in terms of memory, battery capacity and computational power [2]. In order to defend malicious attacks and ensure hop-by-hop security, symmetric key encryption is used for secure communication between WSN nodes as motivated in references [3] and [4]. However, it is impractical to incorporate conventional network layer key management protocols in their original formats since they are too expensive for low-power low-performing sensor nodes [3].…”

In order to guarantee the privacy and safety of data transactions in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), secure key transportation and unique node identification have become major concerns. WSNs are deployed in a wide range of applications with a high demand for secure communications. When designing a secure key management protocol for WSNs, special attention should be given to the resource constraints of the devices and the scalability of the network. In this paper, we exploit public-key nature protocols to define a hybrid key establishment algorithm for symmetric key cryptography. We propose an Elliptic Curve Cryptography based implicit certificate scheme and show how to utilize the certificates for deriving pair-wise link keys in a WSN. By a performance and security analysis, we justify that the proposed scheme is well fitting with the functional and architectural features of WSNs. Both experimental results and theoretical analysis show that the proposed key establishment protocol is viable to deploy in a real-time WSN application.
