Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless sensor and vehicular networks play an important role in critical military and civil applications, and pervade our daily life. However, security concerns constitute a potential stumbling block to the impeding wide deployment of sensor networks and vehicular communications. This dissertation studies communication security for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and vehicular communication. To this aim, we address four important aspects. The first study addresses broadcast authentication in WSNs. We focus on key disclosure based schemes. We demonstrate that key disclosure delay induces an authentication delay, which could lead to a memory DoS attack. We then propose two broadcastauthentication protocols for WSNs, which overcome the security vulnerability of existingsolutions. The proposed schemes guarantee the efficient management of receiver's buffer, by employing a staggered authentication mechanism, and a Bloom filter data structure to reduce the communication overhead. We also validate our protocols under the AVISPA model checking tool, and we evaluate them with experiments under TinyOS. Our findings are that these protocols provide source authentication service while respecting the WSN constraints.The second study addresses the storage issue in WSNs, in particular the Delayed AuthenticationCompromise attack (DAC). We first demonstrate that recently proposed schemes, which also address the DAC issue are vulnerable to two kinds of attacks: switch command attack (where an adversary pretends to “switch” two messages over time), and drop command attack (where an adversary just pretends to “hide” a message sent from the broadcaster). As a countermeasure against these attacks, we propose a new solution for broadcast authentication. Our analysis shows that our solution is effective in detecting both switch command and drop command attack, and--at the same time--is more efficient (in terms of both communication and computation) than the state of the art solutions.In the third study, we address key management security in WSNs. We present novel symmetric-key-based authentication schemes which exhibit low computation and communication authentication overhead. Our schemes are built upon the integration of a reputation mechanism, a Bloom filter, and a key binary tree for the distribution and updating of the auxviii thentication keys. Our schemes are lightweight and efficient with respect to communication and energy overhead. The fourth study addresses security in vehicular communications. We focus on fast multi hop broadcast applications. We analyze the security threats of state of the art vehicular based safety applications. We demonstrate that these schemes are vulnerable to the position cheating attack, the replay broadcast message attack, and the interrupting forwarding attack. Then, we propose countermeasures for these threats. We hence propose a complete solution which is both fast and secure in broadcasting safety related messages: Fast and Secure Multi-hop Broadcast Algorithm (FS-MBA). Finally, we confirm the efficiency and feasibility of our proposals using an extensive set of simulations under NS-2 Simulator.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building Wireless Sensor Networks: Application to Routing and Data Diffusion discusses challenges involved in securing routing in wireless sensor networks with new hybrid topologies. An analysis of the security of real time data diffusion—a protocol for routing in wireless sensor networks—is provided, along with various possible attacks and possible countermeasures. Different applications are introduced, and new topologies are developed. Topics include audio video bridging (AVB) switched Ethernet, which uses the representation of a network of wireless sensors by a grayscale image to construct routing protocols, thereby minimizing energy consumption and data sharing in vehicular ad-hoc networks. Existing wireless networks aim to provide communication services between vehicles by enabling the vehicular networks to support wide range applications. New topologies are proposed first, based on the graphiton models, then the wireless sensor networks (WSN) based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard (ZigBee sensors, and finally the Pancake graphs as an alternative to the Hypercube for interconnecting processors in parallel computer networks.
