Abstract
Sensor networks is an evolving technology and a hot exploration subject among scientists due to their tractability and individuality of network substructures, such as base stations, wireless access points, and moveable nodes. Sensor networks are widely used for solicitations, such as construction, traffic observation, and territory monitoring and several other scenarios. Wireless sensor network (WSN) makes a network malleable enough to go over concrete structures and it also evades lot of cabling. The primary encounters faced in WSN are security, and the hiatus in security leads to other constrains in energy efficiency, network life, and communication overhead. The hiatus in safekeeping the network is mostly because deficiency of the overriding of wave propagation, and computing constraints. In this paper, we have deliberated about numerous diversities of attacks in WSN, and their aftermath to the network.
