摘要:Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) is an emerging technology and explored field of researchers worldwidein the past few years, so does the need for effective security mechanisms. The sensing technologycombined with processing power and wireless communication makes it lucrative for being exploited inabundance in future. The inclusion of wireless communication technology also incurs various types ofsecurity threats due to unattended installation of sensor nodes as sensor networks may interact withsensitive data and /or operate in hostile unattended environments. These security concerns be addressedfrom the beginning of the system design. The intent of this paper is to investigate the security relatedissues in wireless sensor networks. In this paper we have explored general security threats in wirelesssensor network with extensive study.
