Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a rising technology that can be easily employed in unusual conditions such as environmental monitoring in soil, marine, earth monitoring, forest fire detection, battlefields, etc. As the nodes are randomly deployed in WSNs, security becomes one of the major issues which WSNs is facing today. The network is easily compromised due to wireless communication. The sensor nodes communication acquires different types of threats related to security. Due to limited storage and low-power of sensor nodes makes the security solutions unachievable. This paper presents the overview of WSNs, its challenges, various attacks, and issues related to security and their defensive mechanisms in WSNs.
