The IEEE 802.15.4 specification defines medium access control (MAC) layer and physical layer for wireless sensor networks. Furthermore, security mechanisms are also defined in the specification. This paper first surveys security services provided in the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless sensor networks. Then, some security enhancements are proposed to prevent same-nonce attack, denial-of-service attack, reply-protection attack, ACK attack, etc.
