摘要：The emergence of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be considered one of the most importantrevolutions in the field of information and communications technology (ICT). Recently, there has been adramatic increase in the use of WSN applications such as surveillance systems, battleground applications,object tracking, habitat monitoring, forest fire detection and patient monitoring. Due to limitations ofsensor nodes in terms of energy, storage and computational ability, many security issues have arisen insuch applications. As a result, many solutions and approaches have been proposed for different attacks andvulnerabilities to achieve security requirements. This paper surveys different security approaches forWSNs, examining various types of attacks and corresponding techniques for tackling these. The strengthsand weaknesses for each technique are also discussed at the conclusion of this paper.
