An Overview on Security, Privacy, Accountability and Key Management in Wireless Networks

In recent years, wireless network is highly regarded for the ease of use, the extent of usage and variety of services. Including the application of these networks can be pointed in trade, health, military and home automation areas. Among the most important issues in these networks are Security, Accountability, Privacy and Key Management. Scientific activities on these issues have been achieved and exploited discretely. The Classification and study of presented methods features can help researchers to complete the development of science as well as to take the advantage of these networks. In this article, provided schemes to enhance the Security, Accountability, Privacy and Key Management in wireless networks are investigated and unique features of each scheme are listed. This research in terms of type is practical and in terms of approach is qualitative and in terms of methods is descriptive-analytical and also in terms of study design is result-oriented. The results show that Opportunistic Encryption, IRL, Hybrid Accountability and LEAP schemes on Security, Privacy, Accountability and Key Management, are relatively comprehensive, respectively.
