Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a fast-emerging technology which has become an integral part of the research. WSNs have various applications covering military, environment monitoring, health care, surveillance, national security, etc. Due to the inherent nature of wireless communication, such types of networks are more vulnerable to security attacks, and the authentication and confidentiality of wireless networks are much more critical. WSNs needs include efficient clustering methods, data aggregation methods, data compression methods, data encryption and authentication methods, and data gathering methods. WSNs are more vulnerable to attacks due to their ad hoc nature, so the design of a good key management scheme to provide security is necessary. In this paper, different methods of clustering, data aggregation, data compression, data encryption and authentication, and data gathering are analyzed. A survey is conducted on the key management schemes of WSNs.
