“…Over the years, attempts have been made to use different solutions using eg. 802.15.4 physical layer protocol to transmit hidden content [21] [22]. These works demonstrated the potential issues associated with knowledge areas of creating a special hidden information channels in WSN networks.…”

Abstract-This paper describes an idea and realisation of hidden data transmision using Tiny Aggregation Covert Channel (TAGCC)in Wireless Sensor Networks. Our solution uses data aggregation mechanism called Tiny Aggregation (TAG). The protocol is based on idea of hidden messages sending without generate additional data packets and encryption. The paper describes details of proposed algorithm and simulation results obtained during testing of the sensor networks with hidden channel TAGCC.

“…However [10] and [11] show possibilities using noise in the physical layer of the 802.15.4 protocol to hide data and create a steganographic channel. If these examples are known possibilities for using the 802.15.4 protocol to hide data, and show that steganography is a new way of research in wireless sensor network, to the best of our knowledge [12], we do not know of an example of steganography using communication of MAC layer fields in the 802.15.4 protocol.…”

“…The fake nodes can then send false link layer acknowledgements or inject false data into the network [97]. An excellent survey of the information security vulnerabilities of wireless sensor networks can be found in [98] and a survey of proposed defence mechanisms has been provided in [99]. Here, we will focus on research carried out specifically on the information security of sensor networks that have been used or proposed for EM.…”

A Review of Cyber Threats and Defence Approaches in Emergency Management

Emergency planners, first responders and relief workers increasingly rely on computational and communication systems that support all aspects of emergency management, from mitigation and preparedness to response and recovery. Failure of these systems, whether accidental or because of malicious action, can have severe implications for emergency management. Accidental failures have been extensively documented in the past and significant effort has been put into the development and introduction of more resilient technologies. At the same time researchers have been raising concerns about the potential of cyber attacks to cause physical disasters or to maximise the impact of one by intentionally impeding the work of the emergency services. Here, we provide a review of current research on the cyber threats to communication, sensing, information management and vehicular technologies used in emergency management. We emphasise on open issues for research, which are the cyber threats that have the potential to affect emergency management severely and for which solutions have not yet been proposed in the literature.
