碩士 === 銘傳大學 === 資訊管理學系碩士班 === 100 === A Wireless Sensor Net (WSN) is composed of one or more base stations and a large set of sensors, each of which could sense the temperature, humidity and pressure of the environment. Reliability of the WSN depends on the correct transmission of the data routed by the sensors. Unfortunately, a sensor is a simple and cheap device that could be easily compromised to form a Black Hole for destroying the data or a Worm Hole for modifying the data characteristic. In this thesis, we first review the researches for analyzing and detecting the Black Hole and Worm Hole. Second, we extend them into a new attack (called the Slow Hole Attack) in the WSN, where the compromised sensor will delay the data transmission. Third, we classify the effects caused by the Slow Hole into the Sleep, Sequence, Validation and Position Errors. Fourth, we propose the Embedding, Watchdog and Multi-path mechanisms to detect the Slow Hole. Finally, we consider the Multiple Slow Holes Attack and propose the Anchor mechanism to detect it. 論文目次 目錄 I
