Comments from Accomplished People in the Field on
Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using
Identity-Based Cryptography

Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using Identity-Based Cryptography provides a step-by-step approach to everything youll need to know about wireless sensor network security. The book also has information about many topics relevant to wireless sensor network security planning, design, and implementation of Identity-Based Cryptography, which is a superior security solution with better resistance against known attacks.

John R. Vacca
Author, Professional Writer, Editor, Reviewer and IT Consultant

Getting the right balance of systems security is a hard enough task in traditional networking, let alone securing a wireless network composed of sensors with high resource limitations that, nonetheless, can collaborate to perform complex tasks. This book serves as an excellent starting point for practitioners in the industry and students in academia to come up to speed with security issues in wireless sensor networks.

Strong identity mechanisms are a hard sell for todays Net because people feel that they know who theyre talking to. In the Internet of Things with its focus on unfeeling machine-to-machine communications, we must replace feeling secure with actually being secure. Wireless sensors are the eyes, ears, noses and cat-whiskers of the Internet of Things. Yet these sensors are connected by a network that can be subverted by hostile parties, risking that their output could be diverted or false information inserted. Given the vast number of sensors to be deployed, cryptographic identity systems may be the only manageable approach to trusting our senses.
