Abstract

This paper investigates (perfectly) secure message transmission over a wireless sensor network. Using a layered network architecture and a very simple form of routing, we show how to construct an arbitrarily secure communication channel over a given infrastructure of wireless devices. Our construction is computationally cheap and requires no cryptographic primitive beyond symmetric encryption on the channels. The security of the transmission can be made arbitrarily strong (in an information-theoretic sense).
