Keywords: Wireless Sensor Network, Sinkhole Attack, Network Security, Routing, Attack Mitigation.Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are widely used in various critical applications such as environmental monitoring, healthcare systems, and industry due to their ability to collect and transmit data efficiently. However, resource limitations and the nature of wireless communication make WSNs vulnerable to various security attacks, one of which is the sinkhole attack. This attack allows malicious nodes to attract data traffic from other nodes by manipulating routing information, causing network performance degradation and data loss. This study aims to analyze the vulnerability of WSN to sinkhole attacks and evaluate the effectiveness of the mitigation strategies applied. The analysis was conducted by comparing network performance under three conditions: normal conditions, conditions where the network was experiencing a sinkhole attack, and conditions after the mitigation mechanism was implemented. The performance parameters used included Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay, energy consumption, and route stability. The test results show that sinkhole attacks cause a significant decrease in PDR, an increase in data delivery delay, and an imbalance in energy consumption between nodes. After the mitigation strategy was implemented, network performance improved significantly and approached normal conditions. This shows that the proposed mitigation mechanism is capable of improving the security and reliability of Wireless Sensor Networks against sinkhole attacks.
