Guardians of Data: Privacy and Security in Wireless Sensor Networks - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a cutting-edge technology that could completely change a number of facets of contemporary living. The deployment of WSNs has facilitated the capture of enormous volumes of data that inform decision-making processes in a variety of applications, including industrial automation, smart cities, environmental monitoring, and healthcare. Nonetheless, despite being incredibly advantageous, this increase in data collection has also led to serious worries about security and privacy. 

A growing amount of sensitive data is being generated, transferred, and retained by WSNs as they become more and more commonplace in our daily lives and industries. It is now crucial to secure against potential internal risks and prevent illegal access to this data. These issues are explored in depth in this book, "Enhancing Privacy Protection and Safeguarding Against Internal Threats in Wireless Sensor Networks," which offers a thorough grasp of the difficulties and solutions related to privacy and security in the context of WSNs.Setting the scene for the conversation,  

emphasizes the importance of WSNs in modern society, the changing nature of threats, and the main goals of the book. In order to give readers a road map, this introduction chapter provides a quick synopsis of the chapters that follow. 

Wireless Sensor Networks' Importance 

Wireless sensor networks are made up of autonomous, networked sensors that may gather and send information about their surroundings. WSNs are important because they have the ability to change a lot of different professions and industries. These networks have shown to be extremely useful in fields including smart cities, healthcare, precision agriculture, environmental monitoring, and industrial automation. WSNs, for instance, provide real-time data collecting on air quality, weather, and other important elements in environmental monitoring. WSNs are used in healthcare to improve patient outcomes and quality of treatment through medication adherence and patient monitoring.
