| Abstract: | Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consist of a large number of small sensor nodes, usually
spread out in hard accessible areas and communicating wirelessly. A sensor node
Combines the abilities to sense, compute, and communicate to other nodes. The large
numbers of nodes with minimum capacity devices operating in constraining and
demanding real-world environments impede communication within and outside
the network, making the process of implementing security in wireless networks
exceptionally difficult and expensive. We discuss these difficulties and what is being
done to overcome them in order to meet the ever-growing and popular wireless sensor
networks. We conclude by considering several potential future directions for security
solutions. |
