Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are attracting researchers. Recent advancements in electronics and wireless communications prompted the world for crating cost efficient, multifunctional, small in size, inexpensive, dynamic, and smart sensors. For such networks, deploying specially in scarce areas provides extensive benefits. With advanced applications and deployment of such network, one major thing to be concerned is security issues within WSN. Currently, there are a large number of opportunities within the research in WSN Security, and many advancements have already been proposed in this certain area. This paper firstly presents the explored complications in security of WSNs; after that, the required security constraints in WSN; then, we have listed type of the attacks and persistent threats within WSNs. We have also reviewed security mechanisms proposed by current research works, and at the end, we have discussed parameters which are necessary to address while considering the threats and attacks related to WSN.
