A Wireless Sensor Networks Test-bed for the Wormhole Attack.
Hani Alzaid, Suhail Abanmi · 2009
In some applications, wireless sensor devices must be secured, especially when the captured information is valuable and sensitive. The wormhole attack is a significant type of security attack that can damage wireless sensor networks if they go undetected. It occurs when the attacker records packets at one point of the network, and then passes them into a different node. This node then injects the packets into the network again. In this tutorial article, an actual test bed called BANAID. It describes a simulated wormhole attack against wireless sensor networks. In addition, a recently developed solution against this attack is implemented.
