Enhancing Base Station Security in Wireless Sensor Networks
Overview Wireless sensor networks that are deployed in applications such as battlefield monitoring and home sentry systems face acute security concerns, including eavesdropping, forgery of sensor data, denial of service attacks, and the physical compromise of sensor nodes. Sensor networks are often organized hierarchically, with a base station serving as a gateway for collecting data from a multi-hop network of resource-constrained sensor nodes. Prior work that has focused on securing the routing between sensor nodes has assumed that the base station is sufficiently powerful to defend itself against security threats.
