Sensors are deployed in wide variety of environments,_x000D_
including forested and mountainous areas, over the oceans, or in remote regions such as the Arctic. Also in_x000D_
situ wireless networks can be deployed for emergency situations. These networks rely typically on low cost_x000D_
expendable nodes. To enable data transmission over these ad hoc networks, a standard communication stack is_x000D_
programmed onto the nodes. This stack includes security features to avoid intrusion and disruption by_x000D_
undesired users. However, the current safety standards are not well suited for highly dense low-cost sensor_x000D_
nodes. In this project, a highly dense ad hoc communication network will be modeled, emulated over a set of_x000D_
low cost embedded processors, and tested in controlled conditions. Highly efficient exchange protocols will be_x000D_
developed and validated to enable security and avoid intrusion over the network. Innovative techniques to_x000D_
provide security over public networks using low power consumption will enable the deployment of low-cost_x000D_
smart sensor nodes at large scale., program purpose french : Access to remote information has become ubiquitous. Sensors are deployed in wide variety of environments,_x000D_
