Title: A Critical Look at Sensor Network Security

Speaker: Naveen Sastry, U.C. Berkeley

Abstract:
Current sensor network security research addresses problems based on
perceived resource limitations and perceived differences with the fixed
inftrastructure security context.  I will argue that we currently have
sufficiently advanced techniques to solve many real security concerns.
Furthermore, researchers are ignoring commercial realities in search of
problems that don't need to be solved and are avoiding the true open
challenges in sensor network security.
