Abstract

Abstract This paper describes the utilization of an epidemic approach to study the propagation of jamming attacks, which can affect to different communication layers of all nodes in a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) wireless networks, regardless of the complexity and computing power of the devices. The jamming term considers both the more classical approach of interfering signals focusing on the physical level of the systems, and the cybersecurity approach that includes the attacks generated in upper layers like Medium Access Control (MAC), producing the same effect on the communication channel. In order to study the accuracy of the proposed epidemic model to estimate the propagation of jamming attacks, this paper uses the results of public simulations and experiments. It is of special interest the data obtained from experiments based on protocols such as Multi-Parent Hierarchical Protocol (MPH), Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV), and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), working over the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. Then, using the formulation of the deterministic epidemiological model Susceptible–Infected–Recovered (SIR), together the abovementioned simulation, it has been seen that the proposed epidemic model could be used to estimate in that kind of IoT networks, the impact of the jamming attack in terms of attack severity and attack persistence.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
