§Key
establishment in wireless networks
Mostly based on key pre-distribution
Other methods measure feasibility of time or space
properties of node signals
§Use of
physical attributes for authentication in wireless networks
physical proofs of presence from nodes (e.g. based on
physical contact or based on other auxiliary
channels that are fully trusted)
§Impossibility
results for distributed consensus
A majority of honest nodes is required to reach
consensus (or even stronger requirements)
Distributed credentials are also affected by this
result
§RF
fingerprints
Recently advocated for WSNs
Not measured as being perfectly consistent or reliable
(no study of resiliency to attack)
§Burmester/Desmedt
present a method for shared conference key establishment
