Providing security using Signature-Based Broadcast Authentication in Sensor Networks
Abstract: As per recent studies it is feasible to perform public key cryptographic operations on resource-constrained sensor platforms. But the problem is energy consumption introduced by public key operations makes any public key-based protocol an easy target of Denial-of-Service attacks. For example, if digital signature schemes like Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm are used directly for broadcast authentication without further protection, an attacker can simply broadcast fake messages and force the …
