Vampire Attacks:Draining Life From Wireless Ad-Hoc Sensor Networks
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Computer and Communication Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Wireless Ad – hoc Sensor Network is a newly introduced platform in the field of remote sensing, data collection, analysis, rectification of the problem and research in various studies. Prior security work in this area has focused primarily on denial of communication at the routing or medium access control levels. It explores resource depletion attacks at the routing protocol layer, which permanently disable networks by quickly draining nodes battery power. These Vampire attacks are not specific to any specific protocol, but rather rely on the properties of many popular classes of routing protocols. All routing protocols are susceptible to Vampire attacks, which are devastating, difficult to detect, and are easy to carry out using as few as one malicious insider sending only protocol-compliant messages. A single Vampire can increase network-wide energy usage by a factor of O(N), where N in the number of network nodes. The project implements methods to mitigate these types of attacks, including a new proof-of-concept protocol that provably bounds the damage caused by Vampires during the packet forwarding phase using PLGP’s clean safe secure protocol.
