摘要：	Ad hoc wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have the potential of transforming communications in large-scale mobile workplaces. They promise ease of deployment, dynamic network configuration, swift exchange of sensor information, and real-time access to databases and other remote resources. WSNs consist of small, low cost motes (or motes) containing sensors to monitor their environment, and one or more base stations which can attach to other networks and databases. WSNs show particular promise in applications that involve complex, human-made systems. This paper seeks to identify the key issues facing the use of wireless ad hoc sensor networks for port security. A literature survey of ad hoc WSN security applications was conducted resulting in the creation of a taxonomy for WSN security applications. An annotated bibliography of the key publications describing WSN security applications can be found in Appendix A. In addition, an extensive literature survey of security issues in ad hoc WSN technologies is discussed. A summary of the key security vulnerabilities and countermeasures and of current WSN technology is presented following the TCP/IP layers model. In Appendix B, an annotated bibliography of the key publications concerning WSN security issues can be found.
