• Abstract: Security is one of the major concerns in Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSNs). To assure the security in clustered IWSNs, this paper presents a secure clustering protocol with fuzzy trust evaluation and outlier detection (SCFTO). Firstly, to deal with the transmission uncertainty in an open wireless medium, an interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller is adopted to estimate the trusts. And then a density based outlier detection mechanism is introduced to acquire an adaptive trust threshold used to isolate the malicious nodes from being cluster heads. Finally, a fuzzy based cluster heads election method is proposed to achieve a balance between energy saving and security assurance, so that a normal sensor node with more residual energy or less confidence on other nodes has higher probability to be the cluster head. Extensive experiments verify that our secure clustering protocol can effectively defend the network against attacks from internal malicious or compromised nodes.

  We consider the problem of privately estimating the mean of vectors distributed across different nodes of an unreliable wireless network. In a semi-decentralized setup, nodes can collaborate with their neighbors to compute a local consensus, which they relay to a central server. We study the tradeoff between collaborative relaying and privacy leakage due to the data sharing among nodes.
