Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) employ tiny nodes which accumulate information in various applications and security is essential for sensor network applications, such as military target movement, etc. To impart security and privacy to tiny sensor nodes is challenging task due to the restricted capabilities of sensor nodes in terms of computation, communication, memory/storage, and battery power. This paper proposes DNA-based cryptography with the use of secure socket layer. It is exploratory research of biological based cryptosystem. As in conventional cryptography public/private key, pair is used for encryption/decryption process, we herein propose a DNA-based system in which the key pair is generated with the use of RSA algorithm and shared with SSL protocol. So, this proposed system resolves some of the problems related with sensor nodes and here we attain security in three stages, i.e., information security, computation security, and biological security.
