Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, our focus is on the investigation for further improvement (with its variants already existing) upon the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). The security of ECDSA is based on the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem. Though, ECDSA uses the same number to generate two separate signatures as per the original protocol, it is possible for an adversary to forge the signature. There have been number of improvements proposed to circumvent the issue. However, we propose here a probabilistic and improved bloom filter based variant of ECDSA that while being optimal enhances the security strength of ECDSA. With the theoretical analysis supplemented with our experimentation on the TinyOS platform, we show that it is appropriate to employ in the resource-constrained environment of Wireless Senor Networks (WSNs).KeywordsSensor NodeWireless Sensor NetworkHash FunctionDomain ParameterBloom FilterThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
