Abstract

In this paper a secure wireless sensor network (WSN) developed within the MOVEDETECT project is presented. The goal of the project was to design, implement and demonstrate a secure WSN for the protection of critical infrastructure. In order to provide a reliable service, the system must detect any kind of tampering with the sensor nodes, prevent eavesdropping and manipulation of the communication as well as detect, track and classify intruders in the protected region. Therefore based on previous experiences, a real-world WSN was developed, which addresses practical issues like water proofing, energy consumption, sensor deployment and visualization of the WSN state, but also provides a unique security concept, a interesting combination of sensors and sophisticated sensor data processing and analysis. The system was evaluated by examining firstly the sensors and the sensor processing algorithms and then conducting realistic field test.
