An Anomaly-based Intrusion Detection Architecture to Secure Wireless Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ensuring that the appropriate level of security is available in wireless networks is absolutely essential. To aid in the defense and detection of potential threats, WLANs should employ security solutions that include an anomaly-based intrusion detection system (ADS) that identify wireless network intrusions by gathering and analyzing the data that is available on the system. This paper is to propose an hierarchical, extensible and flexible detection architecture to thwart such threats. By splitting anomaly detection into several stages it is possible to minimize the resources used as the common functionality of a system is less affected by a hierarchical system than by a system that keeps the whole of the detection functionality in one stage. This architecture can also be extended to include new anomaly detection mechanisms into the basic stage of the detection system. It can be deployed in a range of different networks and scenarios as a result of its flexibility.

A New Intrusion Detection System to deal with Black Hole Attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
By extending wireless networks and because of their different nature, some attacks appear in these networks which did not exist in wired networks. Security is a serious challenge for actual implementation in wireless networks. Due to lack of the fixed infrastructure and also because of security holes in routing protocols in mobile ad hoc networks, these networks are not protected against attack...

Cluster-based Wireless Sensor Network (CWSN) is a kind of WSNs that because of avoiding long distance communications, preserve the energy of nodes and so is attractive for related applications. The criticality of most applications of WSNs and also their unattended nature, makes sensor nodes often susceptible to many types of attacks. Based on this fact, it is clear that cluster heads (CHs) are ...
