The Internet of Things (IoT) is a transformative technology, which is revolutionizing our
everyday life by connecting everyone and everything together. The massive number of …

Key management in wireless sensor networks faces several unique challenges. The scale,
resource limitations, and new threats such as node capture suggest the use of in-network …

We present the design of a suite of protocols for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with
respect to a complete life cycle of a WSN node from warehouse to the end of operation …

An attacker can disrupt the network operations in the 6LoWPANs by spoofing the IPv6
address while evading the detection. Despite many existing spoofing prevention techniques …

In this chapter, we first overview the applications of combinatorics in cryptography. Then, we
take look at some historical applications of non-combinatorial squares and cubes in …

Perfectly-secure cryptography is a branch of information-theoretic cryptography. A perfectly-
secure cryptosystem guarantees that the malicious third party cannot guess anything …

Currently, adding a new node to an existing 6Lo-WPAN network is tedious. The user has to
plug a cable into each new node so as to preload it with cryptographic material, as well as …

In any security design, the initial secret distribution for further key management solution is a
major step. In industrial wireless sensor networks also, initial bootstrap** of the trust in the …

We present an implementation of AdhocPairing, an audiobased secure pairing application
for Android mobile devices. The application implements recent advances in audio-based …

An efficient key management system is required to support cryptography. Most key
management systems use either pre-installed shared keys or install initial security …
