Resilient aggregation in sensor networks

This paper studies security for data aggregation in sensor networks. Current aggregation schemes were designed without security in mind and there are easy attacks against them. We examine several approaches for making these aggregation schemes more resilient against certain attacks, and we propose a mathematical framework for formally evaluating their security.
