Abstract
Heterogeneous wireless sensor network consist of sensor nodes with ability, such as different computing power and sensing range. Wireless sensor networks are decentralized and self-organizing in nature and nowadays they are used in several application domains. This distributed system requires security at different levels like physical node level, internodes communication level and application level. This paper is based on security problems related to the data exchange between sensor nodes and propose a hybrid cryptosystem based on Elliptic Curves. The integration issue has been solved by proposing an extension of the SeNsIM integration platform. The solution is to develop a flexible wrapper to connect the whole system to the secured network and carried out an evaluation of the overall system performances.
