Requirements and Challenges in the Design of Privacy-aware Sensor Networks

Abstract— Sensor networks are set to become a truly ubiquitous technology that will affect the lives of the people in their application environment. While providing the opportunity for sophisticated, context-aware services, at the same time sensor networks impose great privacy risks. This paper discusses privacy issues in sensor networks, by identifying the requirements for privacy preserving deployments, analysing the challenges faced when designing them, and discussing the main solutions that have been proposed.
