Abstract

In this work we focus on secure routing protocols in wireless sensor networks. Routing is a fundamental task in sensor networks and, consequently, attacks on the routing functionality can have a serious impact in the network performance. In order to deal with this problem we propose the application of an existing modelling framework for secure routing protocols which reflects the node capabilities. This framework describes an adversary model adapted to the capabilities of the sensor network. Our proposal is based on timed automata and the UPPAAL tool.
