Minimization of Power Consumption and Loss via Secure Routing Protocol for Mobile WSN

Secure routing protocols for mobile wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used to ensure that data is securely and efficiently transferred in a WSN. These protocols aim to protect data confidentiality, authentication and integrity of the data by mitigating a variety of threats such as malicious nodes, node failures, active attacks and passive attacks. Examples of secure routing protocols include Secure Route Protocol and Secure Route Dynamic Source Routing (SRDSR), which provide secure routes between the source and destination nodes of a WSN. Secure route protocols employ a combination of encryption, authentication and key distribution techniques to provide secure delivery of data. Secure routing protocols can also be supplemented with intrusion detection systems to detect malicious attacks and protect the WSN from malicious nodes.
