Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is arising as a potential computing platform in diverse zones such as weather forecasting, modern robotization, medical health care, and military systems, etc. Since the sensors are constantly gathering information from the actual world and communicate with one another through remote connections, keeping up the security and protection of WSN communication is a prerequisite. In this paper, safe confirmation and key organization scheme dependent on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has been suggested to make sure about information/picture transmission in WSNs. The scheme proposed in this paper is protected, competent, and appropriate for providing sensor technology based IoT services and applications. The protocol provides all the security features such as mutual authentication, confidentiality, data integrity, perfect forward secrecy, fair key agreement, etc. and is secure against hello flood attack, DoS attack, man-in-middle attack, etc. Simulation software AVISPA has confirmed the safety of the protocol for the known assaults. The performance analysis ensures the superiority of the projected proposal over the existing schemes.
