10.  The problem of establishing shared keys between sensor nodes.  Due to the sensor nodes constraints, the problem is considered a challenge.  Public key cryptography is infeasible (computation power limitation).  So a symmetric key cryptography is a convenient choice. 10

12.  Using base stations as key-distribution centers(KDCs) ◦ Master keys used by nodes to establish secured keys. ◦ Drawback:  Compromising the base stations(usually they are more active than sensor nodes so it is easy for attackers to discover and compromise them).  Random key pre-distribution. ◦ Before deployment phase, each node gets a certain number of keys from large pool of keys. ◦ Probability of sharing keys with another node is p. ◦ Drawbacks:  Pre-computation phase.  Large enough memory required in each node to store m keys(cost issue). 12

14.  Possibility of global active adversary. ◦ Todays huge traffic volume. ◦ Licenses to install surveillances(law constraint). ◦ Knowledge of deploying at the target area. ◦ Long term surveillance. ◦ Importance of network application (trade-off between security and network application). ◦ Deployment time window is small(key establishment phase may continue for seconds). SO, it is more realistic to consider no attacks during the deployment stage. If yes, small amount of communication links may be compromised. 14

15.  Paper assumptions:  During the deployment: ◦ No physical access. ◦ Small amount of links compromised. ◦ No active attacks(e.g. jamming). After completing key exchange phase, passive & active attacks are possible. 15

17.  Key distributed by contact(virus infection)  Two methods:  Speaking loudly: ◦ Each node chooses a key and broadcasts it in clear to its neighbors. ◦ If the signal received, the neighbor establishes a pairwise key. 17

18.  Node A Send in clear its key to its neighbors speaking with its maximum communication power. 18

19.  As a response, each neighbor establishes a session key and encrypts it, along with A identity, using A key.  These session keys are used to secure communication between nodes. 19

20.  Whispering : initiate transmission power while (transmission power <= transmission power.max) start transmission If (there is a respond) establish a secret key Increase the transmission power 20

44.  Their approaches do not need a particular routing strategy.  Can support mechanisms used to recover after nodes being compromised. ◦ E.g. re-run initial network discovery algorithm ◦ Instead of run discovery routing many time along a certain path, multipath key infection protocol automatically can discover paths.  Multi-hop keying has the ability to discover different paths along the same physical path. ◦ This may use to isolate compromised nodes. 44

If Attacker we are good.  Is the network long life ? We should concentrate on security maintenance not the key establishing. 46
