Software Development for Malicious Nodes Discovery in Wireless Sensor Network Security

Wireless sensor networks represent a fascinating domain, with a wide area of applications in various environments. For this reason, in the world of wireless networks professionals, there is a major interest concerning the security issues in network communication and data flow between a sensor network and other types of intelligent devices. This paper proposes a new intrusion detection system approach for assuring the security of a wireless sensor network against malicious attacks. Our method relies on the huge potential provided by the mixture between software modules developed in low-level or high-level software languages with modules developed in powerful numerical-oriented software (Matlab/Simulink) to increase the accuracy of data processing. The main result of this paper is the implementation know-how for an intelligent mixed system that use both hardware and software resources for proofing a wireless sensor network.
