Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is envisioned as a static ad hoc network. Sensor Nodes in this type of network needs to self organize themselves. During self organization sensor nodes initially discovers themselves and then joins the network. Security plays an important role when a new node joins the WSN. Only the authorized nodes should be allowed to join. However, security comes with a cost and same level of security may not be required always. Hence authors propose an approach to secure self-organization of WSN with need based security in this paper.
