An Energy-Efficient Attack Detection Protocol for WSN

Abstract:

Traffic attack and false data aggregation attack are serious to wireless sensor networks. How to detect the two kinds of attack is a difficult problem. An energy-efficient attack detection protocol is proposed in this paper. The detection protocol uses linear prediction to establish easy ARMA(2,1) model for sensor nodes. In the detection protocol, different nodes play different roles, and use different monitor schemes. Virtual cluster head and monitor nodes are elected. Monitor nodes monitor cluster head, and member nodes are monitored by their cluster head. At the same time, secure data aggregation schemes are added to the protocol. Simulation shows that, the detection protocol can real-time predict traffic attacks, and insure correct data aggregation, but consume less energy.
