Accurate and synchronized time is crucial in many sensor network applications due to the need for consistent distributed sensing and coordination. In hostile environments where an adversary may attack the networks and/or the applications through external or compromised nodes, time synchronization becomes an attractive target due to its importance. This paper describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of TinySeRSync, a secure and resilient time synchronization subsystem for wireless sensor networks running TinyOS. This paper makes three contributions: First, it develops a secure single-hop pairwise time synchronization technique using hardware-assisted, authenticated medium access control (MAC) layer timestamping. Unlike the previous attempts, this technique can handle high data rate such as those produced by MICAz motes (in contrast to those by MICA2 motes). Second, this paper develops a secure and resilient global time synchronization protocol based on a novel use of the μTESLA broadcast authentication protocol for local authenticated broadcast, resolving the conflict between the goal of achieving time synchronization with μTESLA-based broadcast authentication and the fact that μTESLA requires loose time synchronization. The resulting protocol is secure against external attacks and resilient against compromised nodes. The third contribution consists of an implementation of the proposed techniques on MICAz motes running TinyOS and a thorough evaluation through field experiments in a network of 60 MICAz motes.
