A Pragmatic Review on Security and Integrity in Wireless Networks

Abstract

Wireless transmission is one of the prominent and widely used aspects for remote and trust based networks. A wireless network encompass of a set of arbitrary as well virtually connected devices using wireless transmission media. It includes assorted but compatible set of protocols so that the communication can be done with security, integrity and higher accuracy. In wireless networks, there are two key segments as “Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)” using which the data transmission can be established between numbers of mobile nodes called as motes. In wireless networking, there are number of dimensions in which efficiency and quality of service is a key issue. Such aspects are energy optimization, security, cryptography, routing, scheduling, cost factor and many others. Security is one of the key domains that is considered as sensitive and most addressed domains because of many applications of wireless networks in defense, corporate sector and related sensitive domains. Till now, there are number of protocols and an algorithm using encryption and hash keys but still this area is under research. In this research manuscript, an empirical review on assorted security protocols and algorithms is presented and it is extracted that a novel multilayered algorithm can be devised, developed and proposed having the concept of dynamic hash key based generation of cryptography. Using this unique and effective approach, the overall security, integrity and performance of the wireless scenario can be improved as compared to the classical approach.
