“…Lesson learned: Blockchain is the latest decentralised distributed system technology designed and invented which included the Merkle trees for digital timestamps by Bayer, Haber & Stornetta (1993) . Proof of work, asymmetric cryptography, electronic signatures, and hash functions are all used in blockchain technology ( Lazrag et al, 2020 ).…”

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) have been among the most prevalent wireless innovations over the years exciting new Internet of Things (IoT) applications. IoT based WSN integrated with Internet Protocol IP allows any physical objects with sensors to be connected ubiquitously and send real-time data to the server connected to the Internet gate. Security in WSN remains an ongoing research trend that falls under the IoT paradigm. A WSN node deployed in a hostile environment is likely to open security attacks such as Sybil attack due to its distributed architecture and network contention implemented in the routing protocol. In a Sybil attack, an adversary illegally advertises several false identities or a single identity that may occur at several locations called Sybil nodes. Therefore, in this paper, we give a survey of the most up-to-date assured methods to defend from the Sybil attack. The Sybil attack countermeasures includes encryption, trust, received signal indicator (RSSI), encryption and artificial intelligence. Specifically, we survey different methods, along with their advantages and disadvantages, to mitigate the Sybil attack. We discussed the lesson learned and the future avenues of study and open issues in WSN security analysis.

Recently, a trust system was introduced to enhance security and cooperation between nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSN). In routing, the trust system includes or avoids nodes related to the estimated trust values in the routing function. This article introduces Enhanced Metaheuristics with Trust Aware Secure Route Selection Protocol (EMTA-SRSP) for WSN. The presented EMTA-SRSP technique majorly involves the optimal selection of routes in WSN. To accomplish this, the EMTA-SRSP technique involves the design of an oppositional Aquila optimization algorithm to choose safe routes for data communication. For the clustering process, the nodes with maximum residual energy will be considered cluster heads (CHs). In addition, the OAOA technique gets executed to choose optimal routes based on objective functions with multiple parameters such as energy, distance, and trust degree. The experimental validation of the EMTA-SRSP technique is tested, and the results exhibited a better performance of the EMTA-SRSP technique over other approaches.

“…Blockchain's ability to govern decentralized networks make it especially suitable for designing a self‐managing system on WSN devices. The contribution by Lazrag et al, “Efficient and secure routing protocol based on Blockchain approach for wireless sensor networks,” proposes a routing protocol that uses Blockchain technology to offer a shared memory between the network's nodes 10 . The simulation results have shown that this solution could be applicable and could resolve the issues cited above.…”
