Sybil Attack Detection and Analysis of Energy Consumption in Cluster Based Sensor Networks
Sweety Saxena, Vikas Sejwar · International Journal of Grid and Distributed Computing · 2014
Wireless Sensor Network is an emerging new technology extensively used for large-scale real-time data processing due to its characteristics and is used in application areas such as in civilian and military domains.These networks are vulnerable to several security attacks.In this paper, we emphasize on Sybil attack, which is a harmful threat to sensor networks and proposed an algorithm for Sybil attack detection based on Time difference of Arrival (TDOA) localization method, which detects the malicious behavior of the head node and member nodes in a cluster based network.
