Poster: Power Attack in Body Area Networks: Dream or Reality?

Published: 25 June 2016 Publication History

Abstract

Entering the era of remote health monitoring and wearable devices, wireless body area networks (BSNs) are growing at a fast pace. However, energy restriction of micro-battery of a bio-sensor makes BANs vulnerable to malicious attacks. In this paper, we introduce a new attack entitled \textit{Power Attack} exploiting the energy constraint of bio-sensors. We propose a threat model for power attack and analyze its viability in reality using Mannasim simulator.
