“…A probabilistic attacker model is incorporated here. Based on the simulations, in addition to the location-effect correlation found in Mayzaud's work [35], the authors found out that the mobile attackers' Mobile attackers are more detrimental and attack triples the power consumption of the network effect can be as detrimental as the farthest attacking position in the network. They also showed that, version number attacks can increase the power consumption of the nodes by more than a factor of two.…”

“…However, there is no mechanism in RPL which guarantees that only the DODAG root can change the version number field. Malicious nodes can change the version number and force the entire network to set up the DODAG from scratch [11,35]. This attack is called Version Number attack and it affects the network with unnecessary control messages, delays, packet losses and reduced network lifetime.…”

Abstract. The Internet of Things (IoT) consists of resource-constrained devices (e.g., sensors and actuators) which form low power and lossy networks to connect to the Internet. With billions of devices deployed in various environments, IoT is one of the main building blocks of future Internet of Services (IoS). Limited power, processing, storage and radio dictate extremely efficient usage of these resources to achieve high reliability and availability in IoS. Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks aim to misuse the resources and cause interruptions, delays, losses and degrade the offered services in IoT. DoS attacks are clearly threats for availability and reliability of IoT, and thus of IoS. For highly reliable and available IoS, such attacks have to be prevented, detected or mitigated autonomously. In this study, we propose a comprehensive investigation of Internet of Things security for reliable Internet of Services. We review the characteristics of IoT environments, cryptography-based security mechanisms and D/DoS attacks targeting IoT networks. In addition to these, we extensively analyze the intrusion detection and mitigation mechanisms proposed for IoT and evaluate them from various points of view. Lastly, we consider and discuss the open issues yet to be researched for more reliable and available IoT and IoS.

“…It then attempts to attract a child node for selection as a parent or improves some other metric and attracts significant traffic directed toward the root. Only minimal research was proposed to describe and mitigate the version number attack in Refs [13,16]. Some of these attempt to address the attack by using a mechanism; others merely describe the attacks.…”

Mitigation of black hole attacks in Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks

Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) has been standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force to efficiently manage the functions of the network layer when providing Internet connectivity for wireless sensor networks. RPL has been designed for constrained devices and networks. Owing to their constrained nature, RPL-based networks can be exposed to a wide variety of security attacks. One of the most serious attacks in RPL is a black hole attack, where a malicious node silently drops all the packets that it is supposed to forward. This paper proposes a mitigation technique against black hole attack with low packet loss and high reliability. The proposed technique consists of a local decision and a global verification process. First, each node observes the communication behavior of its neighboring nodes by overhearing packets transmitted by its neighbors and attempts to identify suspicious nodes based on their behavior. In the second process, if a node identifies a suspicious node, then it verifies whether the suspicious node is a black hole. We demonstrate that the proposed approach increases packet delivery rate significantly and detects black hole attack effectively.

“…From the other side, the adversary can exploit the functioning rules of RPL to trigger specification-based attacks (i.e. Version number attack [7] [8], Rank attacks [9] [8], DIS attack [9], DAO attacks [10] [11], Local repair attack [12] [13], etc.). Both gaps can be combined and exploited by a Sybil node to disturb RPL.…”

Abstract-In Sybil attacks, a physical adversary takes multiple fabricated or stolen identities to maliciously manipulate the network. These attacks are very harmful for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In this paper we implemented and evaluated the performance of RPL routing protocol under mobile sybil attacks, namely SybM, with respect to control overhead, packet delivery and energy consumption. In SybM attacks, Sybil nodes take the advantage of their mobility and the weakness of RPL to handle identity and mobility, to flood the network with fake control messages from different locations. To counter these type of attacks there is a clear need for a trust-based intrusion detection system that we propose.
