Abstract :
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are large systems that consist of low-cost, and resource-constrained sensor nodes. These networks are susceptible to many kinds of attacks as they have limited memory, battery life and computational power. Intrusion Detection is a solution to secure WSNs against several kinds of attacks. In this paper, we review types of attacks against WSNs and relevant intrusion detection approaches so that the attack detection capabilities of the latter are identified.
