Ensuring security within wireless cooperative networks presents a formidable task, given the absence of infrastructure or centralized trusted authorities. This challenge is further compounded in cooperative Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks due to the dynamic nature of nodes in three-dimensional space and the vulnerability to physical security threats such as drone hijacking. In short, it is almost impossible to secure the communication among a swarm of UAVs without having an infrastructure or central authority. In this talk, I will propose a comprehensive architecture designed to address this concern across cooperative networks, with a particular focus on UAV networks. By delving into specific details, I aim to talk more general to let the audience get more familiar with the topic, and delve into details for those that are really interested in the solution. While the innovation of the topic and solution would be exciting enough for the audience, I will probably further add a surprise for them by representing a novel technology, not very much related to the talk, but extremely innovative, that I am currently work on, in my company. Hope to see you all at 10th WSS.
