Abstract

Security problems have become obstacles in the practical application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and intrusion detection is the second line of defense. In this work, intrusion detection using hierarchical trust in WSNs (IDSHT) is proposed, which is flexible and suitable for constantly changing WSNs characterized by changes in the perceptual environment, transitions of states of nodes and variations in trust value. The intrusion detection mechanism based on a self-adaptive dynamic trust threshold is described, which improves the flexibility and applicability and is suitable for cluster-based WSNs. The experiment simulation and evaluation indicate that the mechanism we proposed outperforms the existing typical system in malicious detection and resource overhead.
