An Impersonation Attack Detection Method Using Bloom Filters and Dispersed Data Transmission for Wireless Sensor Networks

摘要

Wireless Sensor Networks consist of sensor nodes with wireless communication devices and sink nodes (here-inafter referred to as destination nodes). Intermediate nodes relay the source nodes' data packets to destination nodes. When an intermediate node steals a source node's ID within relayed data packets, it can impersonate the source node. In this paper, we have proposed a new detection method against such impersonation attacks using Bloom Filters and a Secret-Sharing-Scheme-based Dispersed Data Transfer method. In addition, we simulated this scheme to confirm its effectiveness.
