Abstract -
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are
the collection of autonomous sensor nodes spread
out in various hostile environments statically or
dynamically depend upon the application to monitor
temperature, sound, pressure, etc. The security is a
major component in wireless sensor networks. It
degrades the performance of the network. The
intrusion detection system is the solution to detect
different kinds of attacks occurring on sensor
nodes.Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are a group
of tiny devices. These tiny devices have few energy,
computational power, transmission range and
memory. The more modern networks are bidirectional,
also enabling control of sensor activity.
At the beginning wireless sensor networks was
developed for military applications such as
battlefield surveillance; nowadays such networks
are mostly used in many industrial and consumer
applications, such as industrial process monitoring
and control, machine health monitoring, and so on.
WSN has been used in many applications such
habitat monitoring, building monitoring, smart grid
and pipeline monitoring. Intrusion detection model
takes advantage of cluster-based architecture to
reduce energy consumption. This model uses
anomaly detection based on support vector machine
(SVM) algorithm and a set of signature rules to
detect malicious behaviours and provide global
lightweight IDS. Though a few restricted survey
works on this topic have already been done but there
is a great need of performing a detailed study on the
vital aspects so that the IDS is analyzed in all the
different angles. Three most intrusion detection
techniques explored in this paper. Such as Anomaly
detection, Misuse detection and Specification based
detection. Here in this review paper various attacks
on Wireless Sensor Networks and existing Intrusion
detection techniques are discussed to detect the
compromised node/s.
