Ant Colony Optimization is applied to design a suitable and shortest route between the starting node point and the end node point in the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). In general ant colony algorithm plays a good role in path planning process that can also applied in improving the network security. Therefore to protect the network from the malicious nodes an ACO based Dynamic Key Management (ACO-DKM) scheme is proposed. The routes are diagnosed through ACO method also the actual coverage distance and pheromone updating strategy is updated simultaneously that prevents the node from continuous monitoring. Simulation analysis gives the efficiency of the proposed scheme.
