Abstract |
There are numerous wireless sensor network (WSN) applications day to day being developed. Ranges of these applications from simple environmental monitoring such gathering temperatures in an agricultural farm to complex applications such as monitoring battle fields. Severally energy constrained are WSN since many sensor networks are designed to operate unattended for a long time and battery recharging and replacement may be in feasible or impossible. To optimize the limited capability of the sensor nodes, security requirements are generally abandoned. As the applications increase so are the attacks also. In this paper we focus on security requirements attack categorization which is based on capability of attacker, information being transmitted and origin of information. We perform analysis of Attacks on different network layers and their countermeasures in WSN. To become defensive form attacks There are several protocols of security have been introduced to be used with applications differently which have varying security requirement; this implies that the choice for the WSNs applications. The conventional techniques fail to find its way from security threats due to the limited resource availability in these types of networks. |
