Abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) is considering as one of the exploring technology. WSN has a large number of sensor nodes, which sense the environment and collect the data. The collected data are sending to the sink through the intermediate nodes. Since the sensors node data are exposed to the internet, there is a possibility of vulnerability in the WSN. The common attack that affects most of the sensor nodes is the DDoS attack. In this paper aims to identify the DDoS attack quickly and to recover sensors using the fuzzy logic mechanism. In the Fuzzy based DDoS attack Detection and Recovery mechanism (FBDR) method uses type 1 fuzzy-logic to detect the occurrence of DDoS attack in a node. Similarly fuzzy- type 2 is used for recovery DDoS attack. Both the type 1 fuzzy-based rule and type 2 fuzzy-based rule perform well in terms of identifying the DDoS attack and recover the DDoS attack. It also helps to reduce the energy consumption of each node and improves the lifetime of the network. The proposed FBDR scheme is compared with other related schemes. The experimental results represent that the FBDR method works better than other similar schemes.
