A New Threshold Certification Scheme Based Defense Against Sybil Attack for Sensor Networks. |

|---|---|---|
Security is a major concern for a large fraction of sensor network applications. Douceur first introduced the notion of Sybil attackï¾ź[5], where a single entity node illegitimately presents multiple identities. As the nodes in sensor networks can be physically captured by an adversary, Sybil attack can manifest in a severe form leading to the malfunction of basic operational protocols. It is also pointed out inï¾ź[5] that Sybil attack could be prevented if each honest identity possesses an unforgeable certificate issued by a trusted authority. The identity is mandated to produce the certificate as a proof of authenticity before it takes part in any network activity. Since ordinary certification schemes are not suitable for sensor networks due to some typical incompatibility features, we propose a symmetric key based threshold certification scheme specially designed to defend Sybil attack in sensor networks. |
