Detection of Clone Attacks in WSNs - A Survey
Keywords:
clone attack, witness node, sensor networkAbstract
A wireless sensor network is a collection of nodes organized in to a cooperative network. Each node consists of processing capability, multiple types of memory, a power source and actuators and sensors. This wireless sensor network is established in hostile and harsh environments like military and civil applications. This network is prone to various attacks. One of them is clone attack. Although several algorithms are developed to detect clone attacks, some of them are for static WSNs and some for mobile WSNs. Each one has its own advantages and disadvantages. This paper surveys these algorithms and compares all based on the detection methodology.
