Abstract

This paper introduces a robust network admission control (NAC) solution tailored specifically for 6LoWPAN Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), aiming to enhance the overall security infrastructure. By implementing stringent measures, this solution not only safeguards legitimate nodes but also fortifies the network against potential security threats originating from unauthorized nodes attempting to communicate with both legitimate nodes and the Internet. The solution enhances security through innovative features for administrative nodes, including node presence detection and robust authentication. It incorporates data filtering to swiftly identify and discard unauthorized frames, strengthening network resilience. Established protocols like Neighbor Discovery and DSDV facilitate seamless integration. This strategic utilization minimizes the reliance on additional control messages, thereby optimizing the network's efficiency and resource utilization. The solution utilizes cryptographic methods, particularly the XOR algorithm, to enhance data security in wireless sensor networks. This algorithm ensures authenticity, integrity, and freshness of transmitted data frames, providing robust protection against manipulation and bolstering network security. The proposed network admission control solution addresses security risks in 6LoWPAN WSN and integrates advanced features for a strong and efficient overall security infrastructure in wireless sensor networks.
