Security in sensor networks differs from those in other traditional networks in many aspects such as limited memory space, limited computation capability, etc. Therefore, sensor network security has some unique features which do not exist in other networks. The need to address security issues and provide timely, solid technical contributions of security solutions in sensor networks establishes the motivation behind this special issue.

Subject Coverage
Specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Key management in sensor networks
• Secure routing in secure networks
• Lightweight encryption and authentication in sensor networks
• Attacks and solutions in sensor networks
• Other areas related to both security and sensor networks
