Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are being used globally in many areas. As the purpose of the WSN is raising at the similar rate the safety intimidation are also rising. Nodes in a WSN are vulnerable to different attacks mainly due to their unguarded communication and nature of exploitation. Therefore, the most important in such networks is to providing security. A vigorous security solution for the networks must also make possible node confirmation. But occasionally it would be an energy utilizing process. So, we require an energy efficient and safe mechanism to protected the entire network. Thus this paper, Energy Aware efficient Cryptographic Approach (EACA) for securing data in WSN is proposed. In this scheme, the dynamic mode and sleep mode of sensor to save the energy consumption in WSN. The sender side and receiver side algorithm provide the data security. Our simulation results demonstrate that improved the residual energy and throughput in WSN.
