Machine Learning solution for the security of wireless sensor Network

Energy efficiency and safety are two essential factors that play a significant role in operating a wireless sensor network. However, it is claimed that these two factors are naturally conflicting. The level of electrical consumption required by a security system is directly proportional to its degree of complexity. Wireless sensor networks require additional security measures above the capabilities of conventional network security protocols, such as encryption and key management. The potential application of machine learning techniques to address network security concerns is frequently discussed. These devices will have complete artificial intelligence capabilities, enabling them to understand their environment and respond. During the training phase, machine-learning systems may face challenges due to the large amount of data required and the complex nature of the training procedure.
