One size does not fit all - how to approach intrusion detection in wireless sensor networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a highly distributed network of resource constrained and wireless devices called sensor nodes. In the work we consider intrusion detection systems as they are proper mechanisms to defend internal attacks on WSNs. A wide diversity of WSN applications on one side and limited resources on other side implies that “one-fit-all” intrusion detection system is not optimal. We present a conceptual proposal for a suite of tools that enable an automatic design of intrusion detection system that will be (near) optimal for a given network topology, capabilities of sensor nodes and anticipated attacks.

Energy consumption is considered as a critical issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Batteries of sensor nodes have limited power supply which in turn limits services and applications that can be supported by them. An efcient solution to improve energy consumption and even trafc in WSNs is Data Aggregation (DA) that can reduce the number of transmissions. Two main challenges for DA are: (i)...
متن کاملOutlier Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Distributed Principal Component Analysis
Detecting anomalies is an important challenge for intrusion detection and fault diagnosis in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To address the problem of outlier detection in wireless sensor networks, in this paper we present a PCA-based centralized approach and a DPCA-based distributed energy-efficient approach for detecting outliers in sensed data in a WSN. The outliers in sensed data can be ca...

Wireless sensor networks, due to the characteristics of sensors such as wireless communication channels, the lack of infrastructure and targeted threats, are very vulnerable to the various attacks. Routing attacks on the networks, where a malicious node from sending data to the base station is perceived. In this article, a method that can be used to transfer the data securely to prevent attacks...
متن کاملEvaluation of an Intrusion Detection System for Routing Attacks in Wireless Self-organised Networks
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) arebecoming increasingly popular, and very useful in militaryapplications and environmental monitoring. However,security is a major challenge for WSNs because they areusually setup in unprotected environments. Our goal in thisstudy is to simulate an Intrusion Detection System (IDS)that monitors the WSN and report intrusions accurately andeffectively. We have thus...
