“…Multipath routing can improve the reliability of data transmission and balance the load for the network. In [10,21], multiple paths were established by utilizing the redundancy of wireless sensor nodes to ensure the reliability of data transmission. The authors of [22] presented a multipath routing protocol to ensure network security by building node disjoint paths.…”

Secure routing is crucial for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) because they are vulnerable to various attacks. In this paper, we propose a new secure routing protocol for WSNs in the presence of malicious nodes. For each relay node in the route, associated information such as its trust value and status is considered in the protocol. The trust value is defined as the attack probability of the node according to previous packet-forwarding behaviors, and the status is a hybrid metric that combines the residual energy and distance to the sink node. Therefore, the route generated by the protocol is secure against malicious attacks and globally optimal according to the associated information. We used an improved variant of the Dijkstra algorithm to generate the secure route for WSNs in the presence of malicious nodes. Compared with the Reputation-Based Mechanism to Stimulate Cooperation (RBMSC) model in the same simulation environment, the proposed model can maintain a higher delivery ratio, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed model on the basis of global optimization. Furthermore, compared with the traditional Dijkstra algorithm, the packet loss ratio in the improved Dijkstra algorithm is lower because it can more effectively avoid malicious nodes, thus verifying the effectiveness of the improved algorithm.

“…But the compact design of sensor nodes with little security attributes increases security challenges and vulnerabilities. Further, due to resources contraints, security features is considered last in the design of WSN [9], [10]. Given the resource limitation and salient feature of WSN, the addition of security is the last thing considered in the design of WSN for the reason that it produces unwanted surplus to energy cost and processing overload cost to sensor nodes [11].…”

 Abstract: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is one of the most secured encryption algorithm because of its robustness and complexity. Because of its complexity, AES has slow computation. This paper presents a Lightweight Advanced Encryption Standard (LAES) design by replacing the MixColumn transformation of the traditional AES with a 128-bit permutation to lessen its computational complexity. Implementation of hardware cryptographic encryption aims to find the best trade-off between throughput and resource utilization. The proposed design is synthesized on various Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices and achieves the maximum clock frequency of 480.50 MHz with the highest throughput of 6.15 Gbps when synthesized on Virtex 7 XC7VX690T. The results on other devices show a higher throughput, better performance efficiency, and lesser area utilization when compared to the existing AES hardware implementation.

“…We next present a structured multipath fault tolerance (SMFT) scheme to extend standard fault tolerance techniques to the case of adversarial faults in networks [16, 17]. The SMFT scheme requires the existence of a concurrent multipath routing (CMR) algorithm [7, 18, 19], to takes advantage of the independence of faults along independent paths . We also present a novel CMR algorithm for the butterfly network topology.…”

It is crucial for large-scale communication networks such as the internet to be resilient against attacks such as censorship and surveillance, which pose a threat to free expression and free association. Self-organized networks such as the internet’s router network typically have heavy-tailed degree distributions, making them highly vulnerable to targeted attacks against central nodes. While cryptographic solutions exist, they fail to address the underlying topological problem, and remain vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks and coercion. Coercion-resistant, topological approaches to attack tolerance are needed to address the current vulnerability of communications infrastructure to censorship and surveillance. We present a novel concurrent multipath routing (CMR) algorithm for the wraparound butterfly network topology, as well as a highly attack-tolerant Structured Multipath Fault Tolerance (SMFT) architecture which incorporates the butterfly CMR algorithm. We also identify a previously unexplored relationship between network topology, trust transitivity, and attack-tolerance, and provide a framework for further exploration of this relationship. Our work is the first theoretical demonstration of a point-to-point communication network architecture that can resist coercion and other non-technical attacks, without requiring infinitely transitive trust. To address cases where the network structure cannot be fully controlled, we demonstrate how a snapshot of the internet’s router network can be partially rewired for greater attack-tolerance. More broadly, we hope that this work will serve as a starting point for the evelopment of additional topology-based attack-tolerant communication architectures to guard against the dangers of censorship and surveillance.
