A Distributed Scheme to Detect Wormhole Attacks in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks

چکیده
7 tions are proposed for wormhole attacks in sensor networks, but only a few of 8 them take mobility of sensor nodes into account. We propose a distributed 9 wormhole detection scheme for mobile wireless sensor networks in which mobility 10 of sensor nodes is utilized to estimate two network features (i.e. network node 11 density, standard deviation in network node density) through using neighboring 12 information in a local manner. Wormhole attack is detected via observing 13 anomalies in the neighbor nodes’ behaviors based on the estimated network fea14 tures and the neighboring information. We analyze the performance of proposed

A Secure Routing Algorithm for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks
Recently, underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) attracted the interest of many researchers and the past three decades have held the rapid progress of underwater acoustic communication. One of the major problems in UWSNs is how to transfer data from the mobile node to the base stations and choosing the optimized route for data transmission. Secure routing in UWSNs is necessary for packet d...
متن کاملA two-phase wormhole attack detection scheme in MANETs
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) have no fixed infrastructure, so all network operations such as routing and packet forwarding are done by the nodes themselves. However, almost all common existing routing protocols basically focus on performance measures regardless of security issues. Since these protocols consider all nodes to be trustworthy, they are prone to serious security threats. Wormhole...

متن کاملWormhole Attack Detection in Wireless Sensor Network using Discrete Wavelet Transform
The Wormhole attack is a critical and challenging security threat for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Although launching a wormhole attack is a relatively trivial task for the attacker, detecting it from an infected WSN is a tough job, because it can be launched from a compromised legitimate node. In recent years, signal processing methods, like the short term Fourier transform (STFT) and wave...
