Efficient combined security system for wireless sensor network

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) need effective security mechanisms because these networks deployed in hostel unattended environments. There are many parameters affect selecting the security mechanism as its speed and energy consumption. This paper presents a combined security system for WSN that enh...
