Wormhole Attack Detection in Wireless Sensor Network

A large number of nodes are deployed in the field, called sensor field. Sensor nodes are resource limited devices. Nodes are deployed through airplane or other vehicles. Nodes are not personally monitored. An attacker can easily launch an attack. Therefore, security is very crucial for wireless sensor network. Security comes from attacks. Major inside attacks on sensor network includes Sybil, selective forwarding, jamming, wormhole, flooding etc. Among all this attacks wormhole attack is very dangerous. Our proposed method for wormhole detection uses round trip time (RTT) and hop count. Simulation results show that our method has good detection accuracy.
