A Survey of Recent Research Methodologies for the Security Provisioning in Wireless Sensor Networks
Keywords:
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), WSN security, Authentication, Trust based WSN security, Cryptographic algorithms, Key management, secure routingAbstract
Introduction: Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is evolved as one amidst the supremely valuable technologies aimed at the forthcoming future.
Objectives: Nodes prevalent inside a WSN are exposed to diverse attacks largely as a reason of their nature of utilizations, like restricted storage and as well less-power of sensor nodes (SNs).
Methods: Therefore, providing security aimed at the network becomes a big challenge. The active research areas aimed at WSN security comes with several topics, namely secure routing, secured authentication, key management (KM), intrusion detection (ID) frameworks, trust mechanisms, and secured data aggregation (cluster-centred routing). Diverse methodologies are established in the topics above aimed at providing WSN security. However, it is tough to choose which scheme is best in an explicit WSN application.
Results: So, this work proffers an assessment of current research methods developed for WSN security in the above-mentioned schemes. The latest research topics’ review for WSN’s security is presented with the methodologies utilized, advantages, and limitations that can facilitate the researchers to acquire the finest security solutions aimed at the particular application of WSN.
Conclusion: Finally, the study identifies diverse open research difficulties that should be examined in the forthcoming future.
