Abstract
Wireless sensor networks are prone to security attacks, which are either common to conventional networks or unique for themselves due to the resource-constraint, susceptibility to physical capture, and wireless nature. Security solutions using crypto schemes are not enough, and sometimes not efficient. In this paper, we develop a security framework with trust management, i.e. establishment of trustworthy network environment, to secure sensor networks. For trust management, we explore a distributed trust model, enabling recommendation-based trust and trust-based recommendation, to build reasonable trust relationship among network entities, represented by numerical values, i.e. trust values. And our security framework fully relies on the values to execute security-related actions aiming at the tradeoff between security and network performance.
