Abstract

The paper analyzed the modern wireless sensor networks characteristics and prospects of development. Considered the most popular standards used for their construction. The basic requirements for the devices that make up the modern architecture of wireless sensor networks, including high energy efficiency, portability, autonomy, ware shown.It was considered the basic types of existing network protocols used in sensor networks according to the reference open systems interconnection model, including physical, data link, network, transport and application levels, related the problems of information security. Were identified problem areas of protection and classification systematically various types of attacks in sensor networks. It is shown that the main objectives of information security in wireless sensor networks can be divided into primary (confidentiality, integrity, authentication and data availability) and minor (fresh data, self-organization, time synchronization, localization protected). This in turn has provided an opportunity to offer enhanced security classification mech-anisms in them, which minimizes potential damage from various types of attacks.
