Abstract

In this chapter, we investigate the security and privacy issues in mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Specifically, in Sects. 6.1 and 6.2, we briefly introduce the characteristics and the challenges of mobile WSNs. Section 6.3 outlines the security issues in WSNs, and reviews the conventional key establishment protocols (including symmetric key establishment protocols and asymmetric key establishment protocols) and physical layer key establishment protocols (including the key extraction protocols using the characteristics of wireless fading channels and the key distribution protocols using keyless cryptography technology). In Sect. 6.4, the privacy issues are outlined. Specifically, in this section, we review the localization protocols designed at higher layers and at the physical layer. Section 6.5 provides the future research trends and concludes this chapter.

    In practice, the internal attacks can be resisted by implementing certain techniques, such as the trust management protocols. This section only reviews the external attacks due to the length limitations.
