The Network and Security Analysis for Wireless Sensor Network : A Survey
نویسنده
چکیده
A wireless Sensor network(WSN) is a group of sensor nodes cooperating to form a network over a wireless link based on zero fixed network infrastructure. The main idea is to make sensor node cheap and easily deployed every where to create a omnipresent network with smart geographical distribution.WSN become demanding because of its service towards wide range of applications. But constraints are with WSN like ,low computation capability, small memory, limited energy, susceptible to physical capture , lack of infrastructure etc. However along with such constraints, due to operation of sensors round the clock in harsh uncontrolled environment make security as a critical issue and challenge. In this paper I survey the network, different types of attacks, security loop holes ,their consequences and discus the counter measures which will be beneficial for students and researchers in this area . Keywords— wireless sensor network, applications, protocol stack, security class, security challenges, security attacks, miscellaneous attacks.

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
متن کاملHybrid Key pre-distribution scheme for wireless sensor network based on combinatorial design
Key distribution is an important problem in wireless sensor networks where sensor nodesare randomly scattered in adversarial environments.Due to the random deployment of sensors, a list of keys must be pre-distributed to each sensor node before deployment. To establish a secure communication, two nodes must share common key from their key-rings. Otherwise, they can find a key- path in which ens...
متن کاملRandom Key Pre-Distribution Techniques against Sybil Attacks
Sybil attacks pose a serious threat for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) security. They can create problems in routing, voting schemes, decision making, distributed storage and sensor re-programming. In a Sybil attack, the attacker masquerades as multiple sensor identities that are actually controlled by one or a few existing attacker nodes. Sybil identities are fabricated out of stolen keys, obt...
متن کاملUnauthenticated event detection in wireless sensor networks using sensors co-coverage
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) offer inherent packet redundancy since each point within the network area is covered by more than one sensor node. This phenomenon, which is known as sensors co-coverage, is used in this paper to detect unauthenticated events. Unauthenticated event broadcasting in a WSN imposes network congestion, worsens the packet loss rate, and increases the network energy con...
