Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has wide
application in data gathering and data transmission as per
the user’s requirement and it consist of number of nodes.
These nodes have limited battery power, limited resources
and limited computational power .Due to all these factors,
WSN faces more security threats. Security issues are a vital
problem to be solved in Wireless Sensor networks (WSNs).
Different types of intrusion detection systems (IDS) are
developed to make WSN more secure. In this paper the
proposed IDS are based on watchdog monitoring technique
and are able to detect Black Hole attacks using AODV (Ad-
Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) Protocol. Besides, the
betterment that makes watchdog monitoring technique more
reliable are described and the results of simulations of the
IDS on NS-2 simulator are presented.

In this paper, we presented an effective method for
detecting the black hole attack in a wireless sensor
network. The watchdog technique is implemented in this
work. The proposed model better improves the network
performance by avoiding the malicious node from the
network. Future work can be to focus on the detection of
other attacks and comparison with black hole attack with
different routing protocol. It may be categorized on the
basis of how much they affect the performance of the network. The detection of other attacks as well as the
elimination strategy for those attacks has to be carried out
in future research.
