Summary:Security of the wireless sensor network has emerged as a crucial issue due its resource-constrained nature. A number of localization techniques suffer from security threats when there are compromised beacon nodes in the network. This paper presents a technique for detection and revocation of compromised beacon nodes using the concept of Intelligent Water Drop algorithm. The results are very promising and show great potentials towards offering a more secure localized solution of wireless sensor networks.
