Low-Complexity Security Algorithm Again Black-hole Attacking Node Considering Energy Balance for WSNs
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a network through radio waves to link a large number of unevenly distributed nodes on a wide range of areas for the purpose of sensing, processing and collecting data.The data transmitted in WSNs is usually sensitive that needs to be protected. WSNs are more vulnerable to attacks due to network characteristics such as wireless transmission, changing network topologies, computing power, limited memory and power of nodes comparing to wired networks. There are many types of attacks on WSNs such as sinkhole attacks, data integrity attacks, wormhole attacks, Black hole attacks, etc. In this article, we will evaluate the impact of Black-hole attacks in the WSN network when using the AODV routing protocol (Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector routing). The Black hole attack model will be simulated by Network Simulator 2 (NS-2) by the number of lost packets by counting the number of packets sent by the sending node, receiving packets to destination, and rest energy of the nodes in two cases.
