Recently, WSNs have drawn a lot of attention due to their broad applications in both military and civilian domains. Data security is essential for success of WSN applications, exclusively for those mission-critical applications working in unattended and even hostile environments which may be exposed to several attacks. This inspired the research on Data security for WSNs. Attacks due to node compromise include Denial of service (DoS) attacks such as selective forwarding attacks and report disruption attacks. Nearby many techniques have been proposed in the literature for data security. Hop-hop security works well when assuming a uniform wireless communication pattern and this security designs provides only hop-hop security. Node to sink communication is the dominant communication pattern in WSNs and hop-hop security design is not sufficient as it is exposed to several attacks due to node compromise. Location aware end-end data security (LEDS) provides end-end security

Securing WSN communication using Enhanced Adaptive Acknowledgement ProtocolIJMTST Journal
Wireless Sensor Networking is one of the most important technologies that have different applications. The
security of wireless sensor networks is a big concern. Hence for secure communication it is important to
detect and prevent the attacks in network. Major focus is given on security and on detection and prevention of
attacks. Adversary can create gray-hole attack and black-hole attack simultaneously. There are many
methods which do not provide proper method to defend against these kinds of attacks. The Ad-hoc On
Demand Distance Vector (AODV) scheme is used for detecting Gray-Hole attack and Enhanced Adaptive
Acknowledgment (EAACK) mechanism is used for detecting black-hole attack in network. But only by
detecting and preventing the attacks, it does not provide the better security to wireless network. Therefore, to
secure network a hybrid mechanism is deployed in wireless sensor network. Security algorithm for wireless
sensor networks such as CAWS and Modern Encryption Standard (MES-1) is used for secure communication.
The CAWS and Modern Encryption Standard (MES-1) is an advanced cryptography method which is used for
encryption and decryption process to provide special security.

Wireless Sensor Networks: An Overview on Security Issues and ChallengesIJAEMSJORNAL
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are formed by deploying as large number of sensor nodes in an area for the surveillance of generally remote locations. A typical sensor node is made up of different components to perform the task of sensing, processing and transmitting data. WSNs are used for many applications in diverse forms from indoor deployment to outdoor deployment. The basic requirement of every application is to use the secured network. Providing security to the sensor network is a very challenging issue along with saving its energy. Many security threats may affect the functioning of these networks. WSNs must be secured to keep an attacker from hindering the delivery of sensor information and from forging sensor information as these networks are build for remote surveillance and unauthorized changes in the sensed data may lead to wrong information to the decision makers. This paper gives brief description about various security issues and security threats in WSNs.

Sensor nodes, when deployed to form Wireless sensor network operating under control of central authority
i.e. Base station are capable of exhibiting interesting applications due to their ability to be deployed
ubiquitously in hostile & pervasive environments. But due to same reason security is becoming a major
concern for these networks. Wireless sensor networks are vulnerable against various types of external and
internal attacks being limited by computation resources, smaller memory capacity, limited battery life,
processing power & lack of tamper resistant packaging. This survey paper is an attempt to analyze threats
to Wireless sensor networks and to report various research efforts in studying variety of routing attacks
which target the network layer. Particularly devastating attack is Wormhole attack- a Denial of Service
attack, where attackers create a low-latency link between two points in the network. With focus on survey of
existing methods of detecting Wormhole attacks, researchers are in process to identify and demarcate the
key research challenges for detection of Wormhole attacks in network layer.
Nowadays, managing for optimal security to wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has emerged as an active research area. The challenging topics in this active research involve various issues such as energy consumption, routing algorithms, selection of sensors location according to a given premise, robustness, and efficiency. Despite the open problems in WSNs, already a high number of applications available show the activeness of emerging research in this area. Through this paper, authors propose an alternative routing algorithmic approach that accelerate the existing algorithms in sense to develop a power-efficient crypto system to provide the desired level of security on a smaller footprint, while maintaining real-time performance and mapping them to customized hardware. To achieve this goal, the algorithms have been first analyzed and then profiled to recognize their computational structure that is to be mapped into hardware accelerators in platform of reconfigurable computing devices. An intensive set of experiments have been conducted and the obtained results show that the performance of the proposed architecture based on algorithms implementation outperforms the software implementation running on contemporary CPU in terms of the power consumption and throughput.
HIERARCHICAL DESIGN BASED INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM FOR WIRELESS AD HOC SENS...IJNSA Journal
In recent years, wireless ad hoc sensor network becomes popular both in civil and military jobs. However, security is one of the significant challenges for sensor network because of their deployment in open and unprotected environment. As cryptographic mechanism is not enough to protect sensor network from external attacks, intrusion detection system needs to be introduced. Though intrusion prevention mechanism is one of the major and efficient methods against attacks, but there might be some attacks for which prevention method is not known. Besides preventing the system from some known attacks, intrusion detection system gather necessary information related to attack technique and help in the development of intrusion prevention system. In addition to reviewing the present attacks available in wireless sensor network this paper examines the current efforts to intrusion detection
system against wireless sensor network. In this paper we propose a hierarchical architectural design based intrusion detection system that fits the current demands and restrictions of wireless ad hoc sensor network. In this proposed intrusion detection system architecture we followed clustering mechanism to build a four level hierarchical network which enhances network scalability to large geographical area and use both anomaly and misuse detection techniques for intrusion detection. We introduce policy based detection mechanism as well as intrusion response together with GSM cell concept for intrusion detection architecture.

of wireless sensor networks. The article also aims to provide the basic information related to determining
essential requirements for the protection WSNs. Lastly, we mention some security mechanisms against
these threats and attacks in Wireless Sensor Network.
A NOVEL TWO-STAGE ALGORITHM PROTECTING INTERNAL ATTACK FROM WSNSIJCNC
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consists of small nodes with constrain capabilities. It enables numerous
applications with distributed network infrastructure. With its nature and application scenario, security of
WSN had drawn a great attention. In malicious environments for a functional WSN, security mechanisms
are essential. Malicious or internal attacker has gained attention as the most challenging attacks to
WSNs. Many works have been done to secure WSN from internal attacks but most of them relay on either
training data set or predefined thresholds. It is a great challenge to find or gain knowledge about the
Malicious. In this paper, we develop the algorithm in two stages. Initially, Abnormal Behaviour
Identification Mechanism (ABIM) which uses cosine similarity. Finally, Dempster-Shafer theory (DST)is
used. Which combine multiple evidences to identify the malicious or internal attacks in a WSN. In this
method we do not need any predefined threshold or tanning data set of the nodes.
Study on Vulnerabilities, Attack and Security Controls on Wireless Sensor Net...ijtsrd
In this fast evolving world of technology where security plays a major role, the threats to security is also increasing rapidly. The world aims to go wireless in all the fields, and the wireless sensor networks is also one such major field. The sensors which can sense its environment based on the functions allocated. It retrieves the data of its surrounding and sends it to the authorized location for further analysis. But as technology grows, the attacks on the system also increases due to the vulnerabilities in the system. Hence security plays a major role in the evolution of technology. This paper mainly concentrates on the vulnerabilities, the attacks possible due to vulnerabilities in the system and the counter measures to be taken to overcome the vulnerabilities. Dr. C. Umarani | R P Shruti "Study on Vulnerabilities, Attack and Security Controls on Wireless Sensor Networks" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-4 | Issue-6 , October 2020, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd35738.pdf Paper Url: https://www.ijtsrd.com/computer-science/computer-network/35738/study-on-vulnerabilities-attack-and-security-controls-on-wireless-sensor-networks/dr-c-umarani
Maximizing network interruption in wirelessIJCNCJournal
With the colossal growth of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in different applications starting from home
automation to military affairs, the pressure on ensuring security in such a network is paramount.
Considering the security challenges, it is really a hard-hitting effort to develop a secured WSN system.
Moreover, as the information technology is getting popular, the intruders are also planning new ideas to
break the system security, to harm the network and to make the system quality down with the target of
taking the control of the network to corrupt it or to get benefits from it anyway. The intruders corrupt the
system only when the security breaking cost (SBC) is lower compared with the benefits they attained or the
harm it can make to others. In this paper, the authors define the term “maximizing network interruption
problem” and propose a technique, called the grid point approximation algorithm, to estimate the SBC of a
multi-hop WSN so that it can be made tougher for an intruder to break the system security. It is assumed
that the intruder has the complete picture of the entire network. The technique is designed from the
intruder’s point of view for completely jamming all the sensor nodes in the network through placing
jammers or malicious nodes strategically and at the same time keeping the number of jammer nodes to
minimum or near minimum. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, there is no work proposed so far of the
same kind. Experimental results with the changes of the different network parameters show that the
proposed algorithm is able to provide excellent performances to achieve the targets.

BROAD UNEXPOSED SKILLS OF TRANSGENDER ENTREPRENEURSIAEME Publication
Since ages gender difference is always a debatable theme whether caused by nature, evolution or environment. The birth of a transgender is dreadful not only for the child but also for their parents. The pain of living in the wrong physique and treated as second class victimized citizen is outrageous and fully harboured with vicious baseless negative scruples. For so long, social exclusion had perpetuated inequality and deprivation experiencing ingrained malign stigma and besieged victims of crime or violence across their life spans. They are pushed into the murky way of life with a source of eternal disgust, bereft sexual potency and perennial fear. Although they are highly visible but very little is known about them. The common public needs to comprehend the ravaged arrogance on these insensitive souls and assist in integrating them into the mainstream by offering equal opportunity, treat with humanity and respect their dignity. Entrepreneurship in the current age is endorsing the gender fairness movement. Unstable careers and economic inadequacy had inclined one of the gender variant people called Transgender to become entrepreneurs. These tiny budding entrepreneurs resulted in economic transition by means of employment, free from the clutches of stereotype jobs, raised standard of living and handful of financial empowerment. Besides all these inhibitions, they were able to witness a platform for skill set development that ignited them to enter into entrepreneurial domain. This paper epitomizes skill sets involved in trans-entrepreneurs of Thoothukudi Municipal Corporation of Tamil Nadu State and is a groundbreaking determination to sightsee various skills incorporated and the impact on entrepreneurship.

A STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PERFO...IAEME Publication
The main objective of this study is to analyze the impact of aspects of Organizational Culture on the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the Health Care Organization at Thanjavur. Organizational Culture and PMS play a crucial role in present-day organizations in achieving their objectives. PMS needs employees’ cooperation to achieve its intended objectives. Employees' cooperation depends upon the organization’s culture. The present study uses exploratory research to examine the relationship between the Organization's culture and the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System. The study uses a Structured Questionnaire to collect the primary data. For this study, Thirty-six non-clinical employees were selected from twelve randomly selected Health Care organizations at Thanjavur. Thirty-two fully completed questionnaires were received.
Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

Globally, Millions of dollars were spent by the organizations for employing skilled Information Technology (IT) professionals. It is costly to replace unskilled employees with IT professionals possessing technical skills and competencies that aid in interconnecting the business processes. The organization’s employment tactics were forced to alter by globalization along with technological innovations as they consistently diminish to remain lean, outsource to concentrate on core competencies along with restructuring/reallocate personnel to gather efficiency. As other jobs, organizations or professions have become reasonably more appropriate in a shifting employment landscape, the above alterations trigger both involuntary as well as voluntary turnover. The employee view on jobs is also afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic along with the employee-driven labour market. So, having effective strategies is necessary to tackle the withdrawal rate of employees. By associating Emotional Intelligence (EI) along with Talent Management (TM) in the IT industry, the rise in attrition rate was analyzed in this study. Only 303 respondents were collected out of 350 participants to whom questionnaires were distributed. From the employees of IT organizations located in Bangalore (India), the data were congregated. A simple random sampling methodology was employed to congregate data as of the respondents. Generating the hypothesis along with testing is eventuated.

By implementing talent management strategy, organizations would have the option to retain their skilled professionals while additionally working on their overall performance. It is the course of appropriately utilizing the ideal individuals, setting them up for future top positions, exploring and dealing with their performance, and holding them back from leaving the organization. It is employee performance that determines the success of every organization. The firm quickly obtains an upper hand over its rivals in the event that its employees having particular skills that cannot be duplicated by the competitors. Thus, firms are centred on creating successful talent management practices and processes to deal with the unique human resources. Firms are additionally endeavouring to keep their top/key staff since on the off chance that they leave; the whole store of information leaves the firm's hands. The study's objective was to determine the impact of talent management on organizational performance among the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The study recommends that talent management limitedly affects performance. On the off chance that this talent is appropriately management and implemented properly, organizations might benefit as much as possible from their maintained assets to support development and productivity, both monetarily and non-monetarily.
A STUDY OF VARIOUS TYPES OF LOANS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS...IAEME Publication
Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

1. INTRODUCTION
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a wireless network comprising of a large number of
spatially distributed sensor nodes. These sensor nodes can be easily established at planned
regions at a low cost. Provided with various types of sensors, sensor nodes cooperate with each
other to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, vibration, sound,
image, pressure, motion or pollutants. Each sensor node is equipped with a radio transceiver or
other wireless communication device, a microprocessor, and an energy source (e.g., a battery).
However, providing satisfactory security protection in WSNs has ever been a challenging task
due to various network & resource constraints and malicious attacks.
The sensor nodes and the base stations are the major elements of WSN. These both can be
abstracted as the ‘sensing cells’ and the ‘brain’ of the network, respectively. Security
compromise of sensor nodes is one of the most severe security threats in WSNs due to their
lack of tamper resistance [1]. In WSNs, the attacker could compromise multiple nodes to obtain
their carried keying material and control them and thus is able to intercept data transmitted
through these nodes thereafter. As the number of compromised nodes grows, communication
links between uncompromised nodes might also be compromised through malicious
cryptanalysis. Thus, this type of attack could lead to severe data confidentiality compromise in
WSNs. Furthermore, the attacker may use compromised nodes to inject bogus data traffic in
WSNs.
2. WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK
Wireless sensor networks composed of a large number of sensor nodes. Sensor nodes are
typically small, low cost, low power devices. Sensor nodes perform the functionality such as
sense/monitor its local environment, perform limited data processing, and communicate on
short distance. A WSN usually also contains a “sink” node(s) which collects data from sensor
nodes and connects the WSN to the outside world. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are
rapidly growing in their importance and relevance to both the research community and the
public at large. A distributed wireless sensor network is formed by a large number of tiny and
inexpensive sensor nodes. These nodes are typically resource constrained, with limited energy
lifetime, low-power micro sensors and actuators, slow embedded processors, limited memory,
and low bandwidth radios.
Figure 1 Sensor network architecture.
The following unique features of WSNs make it particularly challenging to protect
communication security in WSNs.
A. Resource Constraints
Small sensors only have limited communication and computation capabilities, which makes it
difficult to implement expensive security operations for WSNs. This precludes the direct
transplantation of the existing security designs aimed for traditional wireless networks, where
3. Syeda Kausar Fatima, Dr. Syeda Gauhar Fatima Dr. Syed Abdul Sattar and Dr. Anita Sheela
http://www.iaeme.com/IJARET/index.asp 265 editor@iaeme.com
network nodes are much more powerful devices. Sensor nodes are battery-powered, having
only limited energy supply. This again requires the security design to be efficient regarding
both communication and computation overheads. In most cases, sensors only have very limited
memory spaces, which further narrows down the security design choices. All these resource
constraints require that the security design can only be efficient and lightweight; otherwise it
will not be practical for WSNs.
B. Network Constraints
WSNs use wireless open channel, therefore an adversary can easily eavesdrop all the network
communications, as well as arbitrarily injecting messages and launching jamming attacks at
different network layers. This means that the security design has to take into account both
passive and active attacks. WSNs are distributed in nature, therefore centralized security
solutions cannot be an option for WSNs. This also means that WSNs are vulnerable to various
DoS attacks. WSNs are often very large in scale, which in turn imposes scalability requirement
on the security design.
C. Malicious Attacks
Give the large scale of the WSNs, it is impractical to protect or monitor each individual sensor
node physically. In addition, sensors are also not tampering resistant. Therefore, the adversary
may capture and compromise a certain number of sensor nodes without being noticed and
obtain all the secrets stored on these sensors. The adversary is thus able to launch a variety of
malicious insider attacks against the network through these compromised nodes in addition to
outsider attacks. For example, the compromised nodes may report bogus observations in order
to mislead the network owner or users; they may also discard important messages such as data
reports in order to hide some critical events from being noticed. All these attacks could cause
severe results that may disable network functionality at least temporarily. Hence, it is highly
important for the security design to be robust against sensor compromise and against both
outsider and insider attacks.
Despite the importance, providing satisfactory security protection in WSNs has never been
an easy task. This is because sensor networks not only suffer from various malicious attacks;
but also, are subject to many resource and network constraints as compared to traditional
wireless networks. This motivates the research data security for WSNs.
3. DATA SECURITY
One of the most severe security threats in WSNs is security compromise of sensor nodes due
to their lack of tamper resistance. In WSNs, the attacker could compromise multiple nodes to
obtain their carried keying materials and control them, and thus is able to intercept data
transmitted through these nodes thereafter. As the number of compromised nodes grows,
communication links between uncompromised nodes might also be compromised through
malicious cryptanalysis. Hence, this type of attacks could lead to severe data confidentiality
compromise in WSNs. Furthermore, the attacker may use compromised nodes to inject bogus
data traffic in WSNs. In such attacks, compromised nodes pretend to have detected an event of
interest within their vicinity, or simply fabricate a bogus event report claiming a non-existing
event at an arbitrary location. Such insider attacks can severely damage network function and
result in the failure of mission-critical applications. Such attacks also induce network
congestion and wireless contention and waste the scarce network resources such as energy and
bandwidth, hence, severely affecting both data authenticity and availability. Lastly, the attacker
could also use compromised nodes to launch selective forwarding attack, in which case
compromised nodes selectively drop the going-through data traffic and thus data availability
4. An Advanced Data Security Method in Wsn
http://www.iaeme.com/IJARET/index.asp 266 editor@iaeme.com
can be severely damaged. The existence of aforementioned attacks, together with the inherent
constraints of sensor nodes, makes it rather challenging to provide satisfying data security in
WSNs with respect to all its three aspects, i.e., confidentiality, authenticity and availability.
Recent research has seen a growing body of work on security designs for WSNs [2], [3], [4],
[6], [7], [8], [10]. Due to the resource constraint, most of the proposals are based on
symmetric cryptography and only provide data authenticity and/or confidentiality in a hop-by-
hop manner. End-to-end encryption/ authentication is considered less feasible, particular in a
WSN consisting of a large number of nodes. However, lack of the end-to-end security
guarantee could make WSNs particularly vulnerable to the aforementioned attacks in many
applications, where nodeto-sink communication is the dominant communication pattern. This
could give the attacker the advantage to obtain/manipulate its desired data at a much less
effort without having to compromise a large number of nodes. To make things worse, existing
security designs are highly vulnerable to many types of DoS attacks, such as report disruption
attacks and selective forwarding attacks.
Figure 2 Node injects false report in various locations and that false report cause false alarms. In
delivering false reports energy and bandwidth could be wasted. The user may also miss a real event.
A. Data Security Requirements In WSN
Data should be accessible only to authorized entities (usually the sink in WSNs). It should be
genuine and should be always available upon request to the authorized entities. More specially,
the below three requirements can be further elaborated in WSNs as follows:
Data Confidentiality
Confidentiality is required in sensors environment to protect information traveling among the
sensor nodes of the network or between the sensors and the base station from disclosure.
Confidentiality is an assurance of authorized access to information. In the context of
networking, confidentiality means that the information about communications should be kept
in secret from anyone without authorized access permission. In WSNs, data of interest, which
may vary depending on different applications and usually appears as event reports sent by the
sensing nodes from event happening area via multichip paths to the sink.
Data Authenticity
Authenticity is an assurance of the identities of communicating nodes. Every node needs to
know that a received packet comes from a real sender. Otherwise, the receiving node can be
cheated into performing some wrong actions. Authentication in sensor networks is essential for
each sensor node and base station to have the ability to verify that the data received was really
sent by trusted sender or not. Data reports collected by WSNs are usually sensitive and even
critical, such as in military applications. Hence, it is important to assure data authenticity in
addition to confidentiality.
5. Syeda Kausar Fatima, Dr. Syeda Gauhar Fatima Dr. Syed Abdul Sattar and Dr. Anita Sheela
http://www.iaeme.com/IJARET/index.asp 267 editor@iaeme.com
Data Availability
Availability is an assurance of the ability to provide expected services as they are designed in
advance. It is a very comprehensive concept in the sense that it is related to almost every aspect
of a network. Any problem in a network can result in the degradation of the network
functionality and thus compromise the network availability, leading to the DoS. As
compromised nodes are assumed to be existing in WSNs, it is important to prevent or be tolerant
to their interference as much as possible to protect data availability.
B. Security Threats In WSN
•In WSNs, the attacker could compromise multiple nodes to obtain their carried keying
materials and control them. This type of attack could lead to severe data confidentiality
compromise in WSNs.
•The attacker may use compromised nodes to inject bogus data traffic in WSNs. This type
of attack could lead to severe both data authenticity and availability.
•Lastly, the attacker could also use compromised nodes to launch a selective forwarding
attack, in which case compromised nodes selectively drop the going-through data traffic and,
thus, data availability can be severely damaged.
4. RELATED WORK
Wireless sensor network is used in a wide range of environments. They are vulnerable to more
attacks than the conventional networks, due to the various inherent characteristics of wireless
communication. Most critical is to achieve authentication and data confidentiality. Some of the
papers reviewed to get an idea of the different systems existing in WSN are as follows:
An interleaved hop-by-hop authentication scheme for filtering of injected false
data in sensor networks, 2004
S. Zhu, S. Setia, S. Jajodia, and P. Ning [3] proposed a scheme called interleaved hop-by-
hop authentication (IHA) and is one of the first works in data authentication for wireless sensor
networks. In this scheme, the sensor nodes are organized into clusters. The collaboration of a
minimum number of nodes inside a cluster is generated a appropriate report. Every cluster has
a representative that is called the cluster head (CH). The CH is responsible for collecting enough
number of message authentication code (MAC) values generated by the collaborating nodes,
generating a report, and forwarding it to the sink. The forwarding path from every node to the
sink is discovered at the initialization phase. The authenticity of the report is verified at every
hop of the forwarding path to the sink by the aid of the MAC values. For this purpose,
authentication chains are discovered, and authentication keys are established both at the
initialization phase of the network operation. A report with even one unverified MAC is
regarded as bogus and dropped enroute. Therefore, a malicious node injecting noise to the
network always causes these messages to be dropped. The other drawback of IHA is the
association maintenance that introduces high communication overhead.
Statistical en-route filtering of injected false data in sensor networks, 2005
F. Ye, H. Luo, S. Lu, and L. Zhang [4] have proposed a Statistical En-route Filtering (SEF)
mechanism that is very similar to IHA. The main difference is that associated nodes are not
manually determined at the initialization phase. In contrast to IHA, the associated nodes are
discovered by a probabilistic approach. In SEF, every node is pre-distributed with the keying
material that are used to establish the authentication keys after the network deployment. The
key pre-distribution parameters are selected to guarantee, with a high probability, that any CH
is able to establish many authentication keys. The SEF provides data availability similar to
6. An Advanced Data Security Method in Wsn
http://www.iaeme.com/IJARET/index.asp 268 editor@iaeme.com
IHA. Because of the probabilistic nature of SEF, every node is required to store many keys to
guarantee the existence of a minimum number of authentication keys. Therefore, two other
drawbacks of SEF are the requirement forlarge storage memory and the possibility of
revealing many authentication keys by compromising only a few nodes.
Toward resilient security in wireless sensor networks, 2005
H. Yang, F. Ye, Y. Yuan, S. Lu, and W. Arbaugh[6] employed to achieve graceful
performance degradation to an increasing number of compromised keys, the locationbinding
keys and location-based key assignment than both previous schemes (IHA and SEF) have a
threshold property, i.e., an adversary has to compromise a minimum number of authentication
keys to forge a report. The proposed scheme, called location-based resilient security (LBRS),
is conceptually very similar to the SEF. However, the data is forwarded toward the sink in a
hop-by-hop fashion. Thus, LBRS localizes the adversarial activities to only the area of the
network which is under attack. The LBRS inherits the disadvantages of the SEF except the
performance degradation behavior.
Existing security designs provide a hop-by-hop security paradigm only, which leaves the
end-to-end data security at high stake. Data confidentiality and authenticity is highly vulnerable
to insider attacks, and the multihop transmission of messages aggravates the situation.
Moreover, data availability is not sufficiently addressed in existing security designs, many of
which are highly vulnerable to many types of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
5. END-TO END VERSUS HOP-BY-HOP DESIGN
Recent research has seen a growing body of work on security designs for WSNs [3], [4], [6],
[8], [9]. Due to the resource constraint, most of the proposals are based on symmetric
cryptography and only provide data authenticity and/or confidentiality in a hop-by-hop manner.
End-to-end encryption/ authentication is considered less feasible, particularly in a WSN
consisting of a large number of nodes. However, lack of the end-to-end security guarantee could
make WSNs particularly vulnerable to the aforementioned attacks in many applications where
node-to-sink communication is the dominant communication pattern. This could give the
attacker the advantage to obtain/ manipulate its desired data using much less effort without
having to compromise a large number of nodes. To make things worse, existing security designs
are highly vulnerable to many types of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks such as report disruption
attacks and selective forwarding attacks.
In the past few years, many secret key predistribution schemes have been proposed [2], [8],
[9], [10]. By leveraging preloaded keying materials on each sensor node, these schemes Two
types of node compromise are considered: random node capture and selective node capture,
according to key distribution. Hop-by-hop security design works fine when assuming a uniform
wireless communication pattern in WSNs. However, in many applications’ node-to-sink
communication is the dominant communication pattern in WSNs, that is, data of interest are
usually generated from the event happening area and transmitted all the way to the sink. In this
case, hop-by-hop security design is not sufficient any more as it is vulnerable to communication
pattern-oriented node capture attacks. Data confidentiality can be easily compromised due to
lack of end-to-end security guarantee, since compromising any intermediate node will lead to
exposure of the transmitted data. At the meantime, as the attacker could decrypt the intercepted
data, it could therefore, freely manipulate them to deceive the sink and hence, severely affects
data availability. The lack of end-to-end security association also makes it hard, if not
impossible at all, to enforce data authenticity. We therefore conclude that end-to-end security
design is much more desirable for WSNs as compared to hop-by-hop design when node-to-sink
7. Syeda Kausar Fatima, Dr. Syeda Gauhar Fatima Dr. Syed Abdul Sattar and Dr. Anita Sheela
http://www.iaeme.com/IJARET/index.asp 269 editor@iaeme.com
communication is the dominant communication pattern as it can offer a much higher security
resilience.
6. PROBLEM STATEMENT
A. System Model Wireless sensor nodes may be deployed into some target field to detect the
events occurring within the field. For example, in a military application, they may be deployed
to a battlefield to detect the activities of enemy forces. We assume that sensor nodes form a
number of clusters after deployment, each containing at least n nodes. In each cluster, one node
is randomly selected as the cluster head. To balance energy consumption, all nodes within a
cluster take turns to serve as the cluster-head. That means physically there is no difference
between a cluster-head and a normal node because the cluster-head performs the same sensing
job as the normal node.
Fig.3.illustrates the organization of sensing nodes in wireless sensor networks. In the figure CH
and BS denote Cluster-Head and Base Station respectively. u1~u5 are forwarding are
forwarding nodes, and v1~v8 are sensing nodes (they can also serve as the forwarding nodes
for other clusters). The black dots represent the compromised nodes, which are located either
in the clusters or en-route.

clusters.
