“…For instance, the adversary conducts a discovery phase to learn the accumulative energy dynamics of the network, by probing and estimating the level of available battery on each individual node of the system. Countermeasures to the attack, like those in [16,27] are similar to some of the ideas discussed in Section 5.…”

The Lightning Network is a second layer technology running on top of Bitcoin and other Blockchains. It is composed of a peer-to-peer network, used to transfer raw information data. Some of the links in the peer-to-peer network are identified as payment channels, used to conduct payments between two Lightning Network clients (i.e., the two nodes of the channel). Payment channels are created with a fixed credit amount, the channel capacity. The channel capacity, together with the IP address of the nodes, is published to allow a routing algorithm to find an existing path between two nodes that do not have a direct payment channel. However, to preserve users' privacy, the precise balance of the pair of nodes of a given channel (i.e. the bandwidth of the channel in each direction), is kept secret. Since balances are not announced, second-layer nodes probe routes iteratively, until they find a successful route to the destination for the amount required, if any. This feature makes the routing discovery protocol less efficient but preserves the privacy of channel balances. In this paper, we present an attack to disclose the balance of a channel in the Lightning Network. Our attack is based on performing multiple payments ensuring that none of them is finalized, minimizing the economical cost of the attack. We present experimental results that validate our claims, and countermeasures to handle the attack.

“…The work of Zhu et al [28] has also emphasized on reviewing approaches towards improving physical layer security. Pu and Lim [29] have presented solution against selective forwarding attack using an analytical model that uses simulation-based approach. Sen and Madria [30] has used Bayesian network in order to investigate the intensity of attack on the basis of the attack graph analysis.…”

With the increasing adoption of application running over wireless networking system, there is also an increasing security concern in it. Review of existing security protocols in wireless networks shows that they are highly specific to adversaries and hence they cannot be applicable with the dynamic state of network vulnerabilities. Apart from this, it was also explored that public key encryption requires a drastic change in its design methodology in order to make it more resource friendly for increased network lifetime. Therefore, this manuscript presents a novel framework that develops an enhanced model of public key encryption using algebraic structure that can generate an elite secret key. The study also introduces a design of an efficient trapdoor function which renders maximum resiliency towards different forms of lethal attacks as well as adhere to maximum security standards in wireless network. The study outcome shows that proposed system out performs frequently used existing security standards in many aspects.

“…In this paper, the selective forwarding misbehaviour is overcome [3], [11][12][13] & [21], which means the malicious node in the network, deny the forwarding packets and selectively drop the packets and lack of security in the network. This mainly affects the forwarding packet transmission efficiency.…”

Remote Sensor arrange is the most standard administrations utilized in business and modern applications because of its specialized advancement in the processing, communication and low-control utilization of installed PC equipment. Due to open sent nature, the attackers effectively attack the node, so there is an absence of security. To avoid this, Selective sending approach is actualized. This paper aims to establish a simple countermeasure Scalable and Energy efficient Single Check Point based Acknowledgement Scheme; SESCAS is to detect and isolate the misbehaviour node in a wireless sensor network based on time out and retransmission. We carry out extensive simulation experiments to evaluate and compare performance with the extensive CHEMAS, CAM and CAD. The result of the simulation shows that the proposed mechanism can diminish the false recognition rate, collision of packets, energy utilization rate, propagation delay; we likewise enhance the packet delivery ratio and identification rate.
