Abstract

Systems, methods, and articles of manufacture comprising processor-readable storage media are provided for implementing security for a network environment using a centralized smart security system. For example, a method includes implementing a network comprising a plurality of network devices which collectively generate data that is utilized by a computing system to execute an application, and implementing a centralized security system as a computing node within the network to manage security operations within the network and to establish secured and trusted communications between the network devices and the computing system. The network devices may comprise wireless sensor devices operating in a wireless sensor network, wherein computing system executes an IoT (Internet of Things) application which processes the data that is generated by the wireless sensor devices.
