Abstract

Maintaining a protected, malicious free environment is essential for any kind of network in order to preserving security and network lifetime. Even though it is a challenging task the demand of mechanisms for preserving such a network is high. In the case of wireless sensor network, nodes are placed in an open, unprotected and hostile environment, which gives an effective way for the intruder to get in to it. Since the main aim of wireless sensor network is monitoring, information gathering and reporting, the need for secure space is crucial for authenticated data transfer. This survey describes about various methods of detection for malicious activities in a wireless Sensor network.
