Features monitoring system to defend wormhole attacks in wireless sensor networks

In wireless sensor networks, numerous attacks can arise due to compromising of nodes. Among these, wormhole attack play a vital role which is particularly challenging to defend against. It may also lead to other attacks like DoS, black hole, gray hole. For launching a wormhole, an adversary connects two unconnected nodes through tunnel link and disrupt the entire routing. we present a new defense mechanism based on features monitoring system which monitors the behavior of zones and underlying nodes. Features Monitoring System(FMS) efficiently identifies the malicious activity and proceeds the response action.
