Special Issue on

Composite and Integrated Security Solutions for Wireless Sensor Networks

International Journal of Communication Networks and Information Security (IJCNIS)

http://ijcnis.kust.edu.pk

ISSN: 2073-607X


Overview:

This special issue is devoted to composite and integrated security solutions for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In WSNs, researchers have so far focused on the individual aspects (cryptography, privacy or trust) of security that are capable of providing protection against specific types of attacks. However, efforts on achieving completeness via a composite and integrated solution are lacking. That is ultimately necessary to attain because of its wide applicability in various sensitive applications, such as health-care, military, habitat monitoring, etc.

Current research so far seems to intensively focus on the cryptography-based security aspects of WSNs. Many cryptography-based security solutions have been proposed such as SPINS, TinySec, and LEAP, etc., but surprisingly less importance is given to privacy and trust issues of WSNs. Latter two aspects contribute in increasing the degree of completeness and reliability of a security solution. However, incorporating privacy and trust features in a security solution is not an easy task. This is due to the fact that the WSNs generally consist of large number of tiny sized sensor nodes. And they operate in highly resource-constraint environment in which nodes have limited memory, energy, and computation power. Thus, lightweight privacy and trust management schemes are needed to ensure completeness and reliability in the security solution of WSNs.

The objective of this special issue is to gather recent advances in the area of composite and integrated security solutions of wireless sensor networks. This special issue covers topics that include, but are not limited to:
Adaptive and Intelligent Defense Systems
Authentication and Access control
Data security and privacy
Denial of service attacks and countermeasures
Identity, Route and Location Anonymity schemes
Intrusion detection and prevention techniques
Cryptography, encryption algorithms and Key management schemes
Secure routing schemes
Secure neighbor discovery and localization
Trust establishment and maintenance
Confidentiality and data integrity
Security architectures, deployments and solutions
