Security has been one of the most critical concerns for wireless sensor network (WSN) systems in recent years. Application of WSN has faced criticism in several fields due to limited flexibility and security in the long term. This study aimed at reviewing the dynamic key management schemes for Heterogenous WSN systems to determine efficient management schemes. Applicability of notable schemes such as Basic scheme, and hybrid schemes under dynamic key management depends majorly on the central key controller presence.
