Description | In this paper, we show that a previously published paper proposing both key establishment and node authentication protocols actually fails to provide the much needed security. In particular, we show a number of ways to compromise these protocols. To overcome flaws of these protocols, we propose novel protocols that remedy all the found security problems of the previous ones. Additionally, our proposals are by the state of the art computationally, energy and memory efficient. |
