Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a new technology that is expected to be used in the near future due to its cheap cost and data processing ability. However, securing WSNs with traditional cryptographic mechanism is insufficient because of the existing limited resources and the lack of tamper resistant hardware. In this paper, we propose a Reputation-based Secure Data Aggregation for WSNs (RSDA) that integrates aggregation functionality with the advantages provided by a reputation system to enhance the network lifetime and the accuracy of the aggregated data. We bind symmetric secret keys to geographic locations and assign these keys to sensor nodes based on their locations. RSDA therefore can resist an adversary that is capable to compromise up to W sensor nodes in total with no more than t -1 compromised nodes in any cell.
