Comprehensive analysis of security attacks and intrusion detection system in wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless sensor networks consists of tiny sensor nodes deployed in various geographic conditions to gather the information about the environment. The distributed and unattended environment makes the network more prone to security breaches. Rather than many studies discuss many potential issues of WSN security and detection mechanisms, most of these are discussed in isolation. An attempt has been made to provide a summary of the major security attacks and present a comprehensive analysis of various Intrusion Detection approaches. In addition, we present the comparison of Intrusion Detection systems.
