Modern societies rely on a complex network of interconnected devices and individuals to fa- cilitate the exchange and monitoring of information. In this manner, drones function as flying smart nodes in the wireless network ecosystem, collecting, monitoring, and transmitting data. This dynamic and thriving technology serves diverse applications, including navigation, re- mote sensing, and disaster response. However, drone networks face critical challenges, such as data security, privacy preservation, and device interoperability. Traditionally, drone net- works’ security relies on classical cryptographic methods, such as elliptic curve cryptography and hash functions. However, recent advances...
