 | Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using Identity-Based Cryptography Subjects: Computer Science; Engineering & Technology; Mathematics & Statistics; Legal Ethical & Social Aspects of IT; Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Advanced Mathematics; IT Security; Communications & Information Processing; Mathematical Logic; Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using Identity-Based Cryptography introduces identity-based cryptographic schemes for wireless sensor networks. It starts with an exhaustive survey of the existing layered approach to WSN security-detailing its pros and cons. Next, it examines new attack vectors that exploit the layered approach to security.Aft Harsh Kupwade Patil: Dr. Harsh Kupwade Patil is a Technical Advisor in the Dallas office of Fish & Richardson P.C.
