ABSTRACT
Networks protection against different types of attacks is one of most important posed issue into the network and information security application domains. This problem on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), in attention to their special properties, has more importance. Now, there are some of proposed architectures and guide lines to protect Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) against different types of intrusions; but any one of them do not has a comprehensive view to this problem and they are usually designed and implemented in single-purpose; but, the proposed design in this paper tries to has been a comprehensive view to this issue by presenting a complete and comprehensive Intrusion Detection Architecture (IDA). The main contribution of this architecture is its hierarchical structure; i.e., it is designed and applicable, in one or two levels, consistent to the application domain and its required security level. Focus of this paper is on the clustering WSNs, designing and deploying Cluster-based Intrusion Detection System (CIDS) on cluster-heads and Wireless Sensor Network wide level Intrusion Detection System (WSNIDS) on the central server. Suppositions of the WSN and Intrusion Detection Architecture (IDA) are: static and heterogeneous network, hierarchical and clustering structure, clusters' overlapping and using hierarchical routing protocol such as LEACH, but along with minor changes. Finally, the proposed idea has been verified by designing a questionnaire, representing it to some (about 50 people) experts and then, analyzing and evaluating its acquired results.
