A multiplayer game model to detect insiders in wireless sensor networks.

ABSTRACT: Insiders might have incentives and objectives opposed to those of the belonging organization. It is hard to detect them because of their privileges that partially protect them. In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), significant security issues arise, including compromised nodes by insiders that disrupt the normal network operation. Immediate defensive actions to isolate malicious nodes would mitigate any related impacts. A multiplayer game model is proposed as a solution to the problem of insider attacks in WSNs, the Game of Wireless Sensor Networks (GoWiSeN). It is an imperfect information game, formulated with the use of non-cooperative game theory, holding the assumption that all players are rational. The model consists of several Local Intrusion Detection Systems (LIDSs), which are locate
