Security and Privacy in Smart Sensor Networks

A book edited by Yassine Maleh, Hassan 1st University, Morocco
Abdellah Ezzati, Hassan 1st University, Morocco
Mustapha Belaissaoui, ENCG of Settat, Morocco

Introduction
The proliferation of mobile ad hoc and sensor network has promoted the development of the
concepts of autonomous computing with a potentially large range of applications. However,
the inherent vulnerability of these autonomous networks introduces new security challenges.
Security Solutions in Smart Networks (WSN, WBAN, 6loWPAN ...) is a pivotal reference
source for the latest research on the development of smart Sensors technology and best
practices of utilization. Smart Networks represents a new generation of ubiquitous computing
that can be found anywhere and everywhere. This book is ideally designed for students,
researchers, academicians, and professionals who are looking for current research on how to
implement Smart Sensor Networks, covering a range of perspectives and relevant topics, such
as threat and attacks detection, Lightweight Crypto and security solutions, authentication and
intrusion detection.

Objective of the Book

The main goal of this project is to encourage both researchers and practitioners to share and
exchange their experiences and recent studies between academia and industry. The overall
objectives are:
 To improve the awareness of readers about Smart Sensor Networks, concepts,
security, and privacy areas.
 To analyze and present the state-of-the-art of the smart sensors security and related
technologies and methodologies.
 To highlight and discuss the recent development and emerging trends in the smart
sensors security.
 To propose new models, practical solutions and technological advances related to
security.
 Discusses new smart sensor network security protocols

Target Audience
This book is ideally designed for policy makers, students, researchers, academicians, and
professionals who are looking for current research that are interested in exploring and
implementing on Smart Sensor Networks and related technologies.
