Security Issues in Distributed Sensor Networks Yi Sun Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering University of Maryland, Baltimore County 2007. 10
Outline • Introduction • Security Criteria • Vulnerabilities • Attack types • Security Schemes
1. Introduction • Explosive growth of mobile computing devices laptops personal digital assistants (PDAs) handheld digital devices … • Ubiquitous computing Individual users utilize, at the same time, several electronic platforms through which they can access all the required information whenever and wherever they may be
2. Security Criteria • Availability Provide all the designed services • Integrity Malicious altering, accidental altering • Confidentiality Accessible to authorized nodes • Authenticity Prove identities
2. Security Criteria • Nonrepudiation Cannot disavow sent or received a message • Authorization Specifies the privileges and permissions • Anonymity Privacy preserving
3. Vulnerabilities • Lack of secure boundaries No needto gain the physical access to visit the network • Threats from compromised nodes inside the network Behavioral diversity of different nodes, mobility • Lack of centralized management facility Benign failures, trust management, cooperative algorithm • Restricted power supply Battery, DoS, selfish node • Scalability Efficient routing protocol, key management service
4. Attack types • Denial of Service (DoS) Radio jamming, battery exhaustion • Impersonation Compromised nodes join the network as normal nodes • Eavesdropping Obtain confidential information during communication • Attacks against routing Attacks on routing protocols, attacks on packet forwarding/delivery
5. Security Schemes • Intrusion Detection Techniques Distributed and cooperative to meet with the needs of sensor networks • Secure Routing Techniques Defend specific attacks and general attacks • Medium Access Control Guaranteed or controlled access, random access • Key Management Cryptography
