| Abstract | Secure localization of unknown nodes in a WirelessSensor Network (WSN) is an important research subject.When WSNs are deployed in hostile environments, manyattacks happen, e.g., wormhole, sinkhole and sybil attacks.Two issues about unknown nodes’ secure localization needto be considered. First, the attackers may disguise as orattack the unknown and anchor nodes to interfere withlocalization process. Second, the attackers may forge, modifyor replay localization information to make the estimatedpositions incorrect. Currently, researchers have proposedmany techniques, e.g., SeRLoc, HiRLoc and ROPE, to solvethe two issues. In this paper we describe the common attacksagainst localization, and survey research state of securelocalization. |
