Summary:A remarkable new technology called a wireless sensor network offers communication services for environmental monitoring and target tracking for the general population and the military. With the rise in popularity of smart networks sensor networks are now subject to several threats and difficulties that must be addressed to maintain Wireless Sensor Network security. The security of most networks is leveraged due to the use of shared key techniques to reduce communication overhead, but attacks like reverse impersonation and network compromise remain to put networks at risk. The primary purpose of this article is to present a thorough security requirement, provide information on security attacks in networks, and discuss current potential approaches for security measures. The insights are discussed, and the research comprehends that asymmetric cryptographic encryption has been identified as the recent most approachable method for preserving the security of transit data.
