Individual sensor nodes are subject to compromised security because they may be deployed in hostile environments and each sensor node communicates wirelessly. An adversary can inject false reports into the networks via compromised nodes. Furthermore, an adversary can create a wormhole by directly linking two compromised nodes or using out-of-band channels. If these two kinds of attacks occur simultaneously in a network, existing methods cannot defend against them adequately. We thus propose a secure routing method for detecting false report injections and wormhole attacks in wireless sensor networks. The proposed method uses ACK messages for detecting wormholes and is based on a statistical en-route filtering (SEF) scheme for detecting false reports. Simulation results show that the proposed method reduces energy consumption by up to 20% and provide greater network security.展开更多

A false injected attack which takes place on application layer is elected by the compromised node. If the false report arrives in a base station, a false alarm is occurred, and the energy of the nodes is consumed. To detect the false report, statistical en-route filtering method is proposed. In this paper, we proposed the secure path cycle selection method using fuzzy rule-based system to consume effective energy. The method makes balanced energy consumption of each node. Moreover, the lifetime of the whole network will be increased. The base station determines the path cycle using the fuzzy rule-based system. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated using simulation studies with the three methods.展开更多
