The Key Establishment Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
Key Establishment is one of the most intriguing, fascinating and deeply studied problems in Cryptography. In this paper we propose a brief excursus among ideas and techniques that during the last years have been applied in a variety of settings, in order to design suitable and often mathematically delightful protocols to solve this issue. The presentation uses a very simple language: it is basically an introduction to the subject. Hopefully, it is even self-contained. Formal proofs and details are omitted, but the interested reader can find them in the referred papers.

An efficient symmetric polynomial-based key establishment protocol for wireless sensor networks
An essential requirement for providing secure services in wireless sensor networks is the ability to establish pairwise keys among sensors. Due to resource constraints on the sensors, the key establishment scheme should not create significant overhead. To date, several key establishment schemes have been proposed. Some of these have appropriate connectivity and resistance against key exposure, ...

Random Key Distribution (RKD) schemes have been widely accepted to enable low-cost secure communications in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, efficiency of secure link establishment comes with the risk of compromised communications between benign nodes by adversaries who physically capture sensor nodes. The challenge is to enhance resilience of WSN against node capture, while maintainin...

متن کاملA Location-Adaptive Key Establishment Scheme for Large-Scale Distributed Wireless Sensor Networks
— The establishment of pairwise keys between communicating neighbor nodes in sensor networks is a challenging problem due to the unsuitability of public-key cryptographic techniques for the resource-constrained platforms of sensor networks and also due to vulnerability of physical captures of sensor nodes by an adversary/enemy. In this paper, we propose a new location-adaptive key establishment...

We consider the problem of maximizing the secure connectivity in wireless ad hoc networks, and analyze complexity of the postdeployment key establishment process constrained by physical layer properties such as connectivity, energy consumption and interference. Two approaches, based on graph augmentation problems with nonlinear edge costs, are formulated. The first one is based on establishing ...
