摘要:Wireless sensor networks as gained lots of impact in the real time applications like monitoring,surveillances and tracking. These applications are mainly rely on the collection of critical information where manualinformation collection is very difficult task. WSNs are more vulnerable to many types of threats, providing securitywill be very complex due to the resource constraint sensors. The proposed work aims to study and analyze thevulnerabilities and its effect on the performance of sensor networks in cluster based routing protocols. An exhaustiveanalysis is presented by captivating the standard clustering architecture with its different stage of operating modes. Acomparison is done for with latest existing security solutions which mainly deal with cluster based protocols in wirelesssensor networks. An Open Systems Interconnection layer wise comparison is presented with the possible vulnerabilitiesat each layer. This work also enlightens the literal need of security and its requirements in wireless sensor networks foran efficient information system.
