Abstract

Directed Diffusion(DD) is a method of data dissemination especially suitable in distributed sensing scenarios. It has been known well in the application of wireless sensor network routing. Although it is very popular as a data-centric routing protocol for wireless sensor network(WSN), it faces several types of serious attacks. We proposes a new protocol ("Authenticated Directed Diffusion" (ADD)) which extends the directed diffusion protocol. According to the resource constraint of WSN, we adopt a real time one-way key chain and authenticated blacklist diffusion to achieve the authenticity and integrity in the routing process for directed diffusion with relative low overhead. Authenticated Directed Diffusion mainly tackle three problems(DoS attack,sinkhole attack and bogus routing attack) which Directed Diffusion can not handle. The simulation result shows that the performance of Authenticated Directed Diffusion is acceptable.
