Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have a vast field of applications, including deployment in
hostile environments. Thus, the adoption of security mechanisms is fundamental. However …

Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are the enabling technology for smart cities,
intelligent cars and transportation systems, precision agriculture, animal tracking, and all …

Several symmetric-key distribution mechanisms are proposed in the literature, but most of
them are not scalable or they are vulnerable to a small number of captured nodes. In this …

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous system of mobile nodes, which are
connected each other through wireless links. A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a type of …

In most general terms, Internet of Thing (IoT) applications and networks contain
interconnected equipment, which are mostly resource constrained. Sensor nodes with …

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sensor nodes eventually die due to battery depletion.
WSNs in which new nodes are periodically redeployed with certain intervals, called …

Many current key management schemes do not effectively consider the attack probability
and assume it to be same for every sensor node. However, for some applications like …

Availability is very important for long‐term use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs),
assuming the presence of an attacker. It is thus important to achieve secure communication …

In this paper, we propose a strongly resilient polynomial-based random key pre-distribution
scheme for multiphase wireless sensor networks (RPoK): a private sub-key is not directly …

Summary Internet of Things (IoT) networks continue to be deployed and play a crucial role in
our daily life. Thus, ensuring their security is of utmost importance. This necessitates the use …
