Abstract

A massive amount of data is generated in today's modern era. The world's open and interconnected nature puts this data and its privacy at constant risk. As a result, establishing a secure data exchange mechanism for large datasets in cyberspace is an extremely difficult task. To address this issue, several architectures already exist that include a safe and reliable data exchange algorithm. The focus of this research lies in the development of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) system that fosters secure data sharing. To achieve this, an intelligent security model that supports the WSN security measures is designed. This research assesses the performance of network security and economic incentives, while exploring alternative deployment strategies. The evaluation encompasses criteria such as design of network architecture, secure authentication, and key management including randomness, hardness, and successful key reconciliation. The main goal of this proposed scheme is to design a more secure and authentic security framework to handle large amounts of data.
