A Survey on the Applicability of Trust Management Systems for Wireless Sensor Networks ´ ´ M. Carmen Fernandez-Gago, Rodrigo Roman, Javier Lopez ´ Department of Computer Science, University of Malaga, 29071, Malaga, Spain {mcgago,roman,jlm}@lcc.uma.es Abstract though trust is an important feature for WSN few systems have considered it [12, 23]. However, more efforts have Trust plays an important role in human life environments been made on the fields of Ad-hoc and P2P networks, which and virtual organizations. In the context of a network, trust are somehow similar to WSN. In this paper we provide an may help its elements to decide whether another member overview of the existing trust management approaches for of the same network is being uncooperative or malicious. some kind of networks, more specifically for Ad-hoc and Trust becomes quite important in self-configurable and au- P2P networks, and analyse how these approaches can be tonomous systems, such as wireless sensor networks (WSN). applied to WSN. As a result, it becomes possible to extract However, very little effort has been done in the field of trust what are the requirements that a trust management system management in WSN. On the other hand, some efforts have should fulfill in a WSN environment, and to provide new been made in quite related fields such as Ad-hoc and P2P directions for future works in this area.
