Network Security in Wireless Sensor Networks: Threats and Countermeasures
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Network Security
Abstract
As the number of wireless sensor networks has increased, so has the importance of ensuring the confidentiality of the information that is sent between them. As a result of their malleability and the simplicity with which they may be implemented, sensor networks have found applications in a wide variety of academic and real-world contexts. Due to these qualities, they are vulnerable to a variety of threats that put the confidentiality of their data in jeopardy. As a result of the fact that the data is protected while it is moving through and across networks, the investigators now have access to a novel and fascinating research opportunity that was not available to them in the past. The architecture of these networks, which is focused towards preserving the data, is confined by the networks' own power and processing capabilities. This is the case even if the architecture is geared towards protecting the data. Academics and engineers can have a better understanding of this application field with the aid of our high-level examination of the principles of wireless sensor network security that we present here. The principles of information security are going to be covered in this chapter, with a specific emphasis on wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In addition, the chapter that comes after this one will include an overview of the data security requirements that are required for networks of this type. In addition, this article discusses the dangers that can be posed to the data security of WSNs as well as various preventative measures.
