Intrusion Detection of Wormhole Attack in IoT: A Review
Minalini Goyal, Maitreyee Dutta · 2018
Internet of Things is a new paradigm that is rapidly making progress in the present wireless communications. It semantically implies a worldwide network of connected objects, uniquely addressable based on standard communication protocols. IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low- Power and Lossy Network is considered as a core communication standard for IoT. Even though RPL offers a set of mechanism to make certain the safety of communication, the shared and open nature of IoT makes it evidently susceptible to numerous security attacks like Sinkhole attack, Wormhole attack, Hello flood attack, Sybil attack, Blackhole attack and etc. Wormhole attack is an internal attack which listens to the network activities without changing it, consequently making it extremely hard to identify the attack. Our paper targets to explore the current detection mechanism utilized as a part of identifying the wormhole attack in IoT based-networks. This paper classifies and exhibits every mechanism as per certain perspectives.
