Node Attribute Behavior Based Intrusion Detection in Sensor Networks

Security is one of the important problem in wireless sensor networks. With limited energy resources and processing resources, this paper focus on node attribute behavior based anomaly detection system and deals only with attributes of layered sensor node. It introduces node attribute behavioral index. The detection uses genetic algorithm which evaluates the behavior of sensor node with node attributes and threshold technique have been used to detect abnormal behavior of sensor node based on behavioral index. The performance has been evaluated for MAC and network layer feature set of wireless nodes. Keyword- Node attributes, Anomaly detection, Genetic algorithm, Sensor networks.
