摘要:Wireless sensor network has received increasing attention from the research community since last decade due to multiple problems associated with it. Out of many other significant problems e.g. routing, energy, load balancing, resource allocation, there is a lesser extent of effective security protocols towards solving security pitfalls in wireless sensor network. This paper studies the trend of research manuscript published in last six years about security problems to find that cryptographic techniques received more attention compared to non-cryptographic-based techniques. It also reviews the existing implementation towards addressing security problems and assesses its effectiveness by highlighting beneficial factor as well as limitations. Finally, we extract a research gap to identify the unexplored area of research, which is finalized to be implemented as a part of the future study to overcome the recent security issues.
