Abstract

Wireless sensor networks have been played a key role in all digital applications owing to their low cost of deployment and easier to use. They have gained great importance in various applications like military and civilian fields. They become vulnerable for security attacks due to the lack of centralized management in the networks. The packet drop attack is one of the security attacks that creates the malicious compromised node packets dropping. In WSNs, various method have been proposed for detecting the packet drop attack. But, none of the methods can’t be able to provide the feasibility for isolating or stopping the occurrence in the future. In recent times, the reputation systems’ utilization has become an essential mechanism for WSNs. According to the behaviour of a node, the reputation has been calculated that assigns to each node using the reputation system. These systems create a way to detect the nodes that are trustworthy for data forwarding. The behaviour of data forwarding of a node is monitored effectively by the promiscuous mode when monitoring the nodes. A novel CONFIDENT SCORE based NODE MONITORING AGENT (CFS-NMA) technique introduces in this paper for detecting the packet drop nodes and preventing them in the process of data forwarding. The nodes’ forwarding behaviour is monitored by node monitoring agents (BFNMA) consistently and the CONFIDENT SCORE is assigned by considering the successful forwards. The traffic pattern is analysed by BFNMA and the wrong node or malicious node is prevented. The network security enhances by the proposed mechanism based on simulation results compared to the other traditional security algorithms.
