Abstract—Wireless Sensor Network communication is naturally unreliable and can cause communication packets to be damaged or dropped. This unpredictability in communication poses additional threats to the nodes if dropped packets are taken over by adversaries. Optimized Elliptic curve cryptography (O-ECC) can assist more secure towards WSN security and improved protocol design. Optimized Elliptic curve cryptography is not only emerged as an attractive public key crypto-system for mobile / wireless environments but also provides bandwidth savings. This paper presents a light security algorithm i.e. Optimized ECC which is enhancement of traditional Elliptic Curve Cryptography for wireless sensor network.
Index Terms—Cryptography, ECC, security, wireless sensor.
