Abstract :
Current mainstream encryption based on computational security is sufficiently safe. However, if the computing power of an adversary increases, current encryption methods may no longer be safe. In this study, we focus on PSMT (Perfectly Secure Message Transmission) which is based on information theoretic security which could establish a security level stronger than computational safety. We evaluated the performance of information theoretic secure Multi-channel Transmission on wireless sensor networks.
