Policy and network-based intrusion detection system for IPv6-enabled wireless sensor networks

摘要

The recent years realize a progressive transition where fixed computing reached maturity and the mobility age started to thrive. Nowadays, another transition from the mobility age to the “Internet of Everything” (IoE) is taking place. In the IoE vision, several types of quotidian objects will be able to communicate over the Internet. As a result, it is expected that within a decade, IoE will have an economic value of $14.4 trillion, as the number of devices connected to the Internet continues to increase exponentially. The support for security services in these emerging resource-constrained devices is considered a challenge but needs to take into account from the very early stages of the wireless network inception. This paper proposes a network-based intrusion detection system (IDS) for IPv6-enabled wireless sensor networks. The proposed IDS is used to detect security attacks based on traffic signatures and abnormal behaviors.
