An anomaly detection algorithm for detecting attacks in wireless sensor networks

As the prevalence of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) grows in the military and civil domains, the need for network security has become a critical concern. In a Sybil attack, the WSN is subverted by a malicious node which forges a large number of fake ...

Anomaly detection in wireless sensor networks is an important challenge for tasks such as fault diagnosis, intrusion detection, and monitoring applications. The algorithms developed for anomaly detection have to consider the inherent limitations of ...

In a wireless sensor network, multiple nodes would send sensor readings to a base station for further processing. It is known that such a many-to-one communication is highly vulnerable to a sinkhole attack, where an intruder attracts surrounding nodes ...
