An Adaptive Intrusion Detection Method for Wireless Sensor Networks
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 11
Abstract
Current intrusion detection systems for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) which are usually designed to detect a specific form of intrusion or only applied for one specific type of network structure has apparently restrictions in facing various attacks and different network structures. To bridge this gap, based on the mechanism that attacks are much likely to be deviated from normal features and from different shapes of aggregations in feature space, we proposed a knowledge based intrusion detection strategy (KBIDS) to detect multiple forms of attacks over different network structure. We firstly, in the training stage, used a modified unsupervised mean shift clustering algorithm to discover clusters in network features. Then the discovered clusters were classified as an anomaly if they had a certain amount of deviation from the normal cluster captured at the initial stage where no attacks could occur at all. The training data combined with a weighted support vector machine were then used to build the decision function that was used to flag network behaviors. The decision function was updated periodically after training by merging newly added network features to adapt network variability as well as to achieve time efficiency. During network running, each node uniformly captured their status as feature vector at certain interval and forwarded them to the base station on which the model was deployed and run. Using this way, our model can work independently of network structure in both detection and deployment. The efficiency and adaptability of the proposed method have been tested and evaluated by simulation experiments deployed on QualNet. The simulations were conducted as a full-factorial experiment in which all combinations of three forms of attacks and two types of WSN structures were tested. Results demonstrated that the detection accuracy and network structure adaptability of the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art intrusion detection methods for WSN.
