Synoptic analysis techniques for intrusion detection in wireless networks

Abstract

I would like to dedicate this dissertation to my husband Kenneth. Without his love, sacrice, and support this accomplishment would not have been possible. I also dedicate this dissertation to my children Melanie, Douglas, Thomas, Amanda, and daughter-in-law Samantha for their unwavering emotional support-they are my biggest fans. I must include my granddaughter, Jadyn, for providing fun and recreation during my rst year at Iowa State University by taking me to all of the playgrounds in Ames, Iowa and schooling me in the strategy of the game "Trouble". Dedication also goes to Dorothy and Eugene Hlavacek for providing babysitting and family support during my military career. Finally, I dedicate this dissertation to my parents Samuel and Shirley Craig. They instilled the love of lifelong learning and the appreciation of a hard day's work. They are not here to see the conclusion of my eorts, but I know they are proud. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES .

Enhancing Security and Efficiency in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks: A Lightweight Key Management Framework

“…UWSNs are vulnerable to various security attacks, such as node capture, sinkhole, and wormhole attacks, which can compromise the network's security. For instance, node capture attacks can lead to the theft of cryptographic keys, while sinkhole attacks can redirect the communication flow to an attacker's node, making it difficult to establish a secure communication channel [21]. Mezrag et al [22] proposed an identity-based cryptographic scheme for secure communication with ECC based key distribution model to resist all known common attacks.…”
