An integrated security mechanism is one of the key challenges in the open wireless network architecture because of the diversity of the wireless networks in OWA and the unique security mechanism used in each one of these networks. Because the overall security of the network is as strong as its weakest component, integration of the overall security mechanism in OWA is of primary importance. In this article, we comparatively analyze the unique network-centric features and security mechanisms of various heterogeneous wireless networks that are expected to be part of OWA. Then, after defining the specific integrated network model of OWA, we propose an integrated security platform based on the security profile concept
