Abstract

In this paper, we suggest a secure data dissemination by Lightweight Individual Encryption Multicast scheme over wireless sensor networks using the individual encryption method with Forward Error Correction instead of the group key encryption method. In wireless sensor networks, a sink node disseminates multicast data to the number of sensor nodes to update the up to date software such as network re-programming and here the group key encryption method is the general approach to provide a secure transmission. This group key encryption approach involves re-key management to provide a strong secure content distribution, however it is complicated to provide group key management services in wireless sensor networks due to limited resources of computing, storage, and communication. Although it is possible to control an individual node, the cost problem about individual encryption comes up and the individual encryption method is difficult to apply in multicast data transmission on wireless sensor networks. Therefore we only use 0.16% of individually encrypted packets to securely transmit data with the unicast to every node and the rest 99.84% non-encrypted encoded packets is transmitted with the multicast for network performance.

본 논문에서는 무선 센서네트워크상에서 Lightweight Individual Encryption Multicast 방식으로 그룹키의 사용대신에 Forward Error Correction을 이용한 개인별 인크립션을 사용하여 안전한 데이터 전송을 제안한다. 무선 센서네트워크에서 센서노드 프로그램을 위한 업데이트 방법으로 싱크 노드는 데이터를 다수의 센서노드에게 멀티캐스트 방식으로 전송이 가능하며, 그룹키 인크립션 방식이 가장 보편적인 안전한 데이터 전송을 위한 방식이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 그룹키 방식은 더 강력하고 안전한 데이터 전송을 위하여 멤버의 가입 및 탈퇴시 키를 재 생성하는 re-key 방식이 필요하다. 그러나 이러한 그룹키 방식을 센서네트워크에서 구현하기에는 제한된 컴퓨팅 자원, 저장 공간, 통신 등으로 인한 많은 제약이 존재한다. 또한 개인별 인크립션을 사용하면 각 노드에 대한 개별적 컨트롤은 가능하지만, 데이터 전송을 위한 개인별 인크립션 비용이 많이 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 멀티캐스트 전송시 개인별 인크립션 방식이 많이 고려되지 않았지만, 보내고자 하는 전체 데이터의 0.16 %만 개인키를 사용하여 각 노드에게 유니캐스트로 안전하게 전송하고, 나머지 99.84%의 데이터는 멀티캐스트를 이용하여 전송함으로써 무선 센서네트워크 성능을 향상시킨다.
