Trust evaluation model with entropy-based weight assignment for malicious node’s detection in wireless sensor networks

Trust management is considered as an effective complementary mechanism to ensure the security of sensor networks. Based on historical behavior, the trust value can be evaluated and applied to estimate the reliability of the node. For the analysis of the possible attack behavior of malicious nodes, we proposed a trust evaluation model with entropy-based weight assignment for malicious node’s detection in wireless sensor networks. To mitigate the...
