A cluster-based key management framework for resource constraint networks
In this work, we propose a Cluster-based framework to be used for a resource constraint network. The proposed framework includes any pre-distribution key establishment schemes. It allows mobility and provides efficiency and security. We provide two instantiations to support our claim that the proposed framework improves security and scalability of the used keying establishment schemes. We develop analytical models and conduct extensive simulations to evaluate the security and performance of the proposed framework under different scenarios.
