Popis: The information security of wireless sensor networks is one of hot issues on the current research; this paper combines threshold key scheme with the management of security key sharing and group agreement and proposes dynamic key management scheme through clustering level key matrix of authentication mechanism from the cluster to node. The network is divided into different clusters, and the cluster head conducts the key authentication exchange and updates the key management with threshold key schemes, with no need of third authentication center, reduces the computing and communication costs, and promotes communication.
