2. Key management in wireless sensor networks
Key management is an essential function in any cryptographic system to ensure security services such as confidentiality, authentication, non-repudiation, etc. This aspect covers key generation, granting or transporting keys in a secure manner, their storage and verification, renewal and revocation. It covers key generation, secure key granting or transport, key storage and verification, key renewal and key revocation.
2.1 Classification of key management protocols in an RCSF
Key management in asymmetric cryptosystems (RSA) is relatively straightforward, since public keys are protected by certificates. However, this type of key management is less suited to FSKNs due to resource limitations
