Towards a Statistical Framework for Source Anonymity in Sensor
Networks
Abstract:
In certain applications, the locations of events reported by a sensor network need to remain anonymous. That is,
unauthorized observers must be unable to detect the origin of such events by analyzing the network traffic.
Known as the source anonymity problem, this problem has emerged as an important topic in the security of
wireless sensor networks, with variety of techniques based on different adversarial assumptions being proposed.
In this work, we present a new framework for modeling, analyzing and evaluating anonymity in sensor
networks. The novelty of the proposed framework is twofold: first, it introduces the notion of “interval
indistinguishability” and provides a quantitative measure to model anonymity in wireless sensor networks;
second, it maps source anonymity to the statistical problem of binary hypothesis testing with nuisance
parameters. We then analyze existing solutions for designing anonymous sensor networks using the proposed
model. We show how mapping source anonymity to binary hypothesis testing with nuisance parameters leads to
converting the problem of exposing private source information into searching for an appropriate data
transformation that removes or minimize the effect of the nuisance information. By doing so, we transform the
problem from analyzing real-valued sample points to binary codes, which opens the door for coding theory to
be incorporated into the study of anonymous sensor networks. Finally, we discuss how existing solutions can be
modified to improve their anonymity.

Existing System:
Existing Wireless sensor networks once sensor nodes have been deployed, there will be
minimal manual intervention and monitoring. But, when nodes are deployed in a hostile
environment and there is no manual monitoring,
Proposed System:
To improve anonymity, we suggest introducing the same correlation of inter-transmission times during
real intervals to inter-transmission times during fake intervals. That is, let the transmission procedure consists of
two different algorithms: AR and AF . In the presence of real events , algorithm AR is implemented. In the
absence of real events , algorithm AF is implemented. In algorithm AF , the nodes generates two sets of events
independently of each other: “dummy events” and fake events. Fake events serve the same purpose they serve
in algorithm AR, that is, they are used to hide the existence of real transmissions. Since there are no real events
in fake intervals, however, dummy events are generated to be handled as if they are real events. That is, dummy
events are generated independently of fake messages and, upon their generation, their transmission times are
determined according to the used statistical goodness of fit test. The purpose of this procedure is to introduce
the same correlation of real intervals into fake intervals. That is, not only the two sequences of intertransmission
times will be statistically indistinguishable by means of statistical goodness of fit tests, but also the binary codes
representing fake and real intervals will have the same statistical behavior.
Proposed Modules:
1. Source Anonymity
We introduce the notion of “interval indistinguishability” and illustrate how the problem of statistical
source anonymity can be mapped to the problem of interval indistinguishability.
_ We propose a quantitative measure to evaluate statistical source anonymity in sensor networks.
2. Coding Theory
We analyze existing solutions under the proposed model. By finding a transformation of observed data, we
convert the problem from analyzing real-valued samples to binary codes and identify a possible anonymity
breach in the current solutions for the SSA problem.
3. Nuisance Parameters
In statistical decision theory, the term “nuisance parameters” refers to information that is not needed for
hypothesis testing and, further, can preclude a more accurate decision making . When performing hypothesis
testing of data with nuisance parameters, it is desired (even necessary in some scenarios) to find an appropriate
transformation of the data that removes or minimizes the effect of the nuisance information.
4. Hypothesis Testing
In binary hypothesis testing, given two hypothesis, H0 and H1, and a data sample that belongs to one of
the two hypotheses (e.g., a bit transmitted through a noisy communication channel), the goal is to decide to
which hypothesis the data sample belongs. In the statistical strong anonymity problem under interval
indistinguishability, given an interval of intertransmission times, the goal is to decide whether the interval is
fake or real (i.e., consists of fake transmissions only or contains real transmissions).
