Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLSTM-Based AI Model for Sinkhole Attack Detection With Legal Basis in an Ecuadorian Public InstitutionEstefanía Alejandra Mora Parra, Rubén Nogales Portero, Moisés Toapanta T. et al.Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are an essential component of the Internet of Things (IoT). However, their decentralized nature, data transmission over unencrypted channels, and the physical exposure of nodes make them especially vulnerable to attacks, among which the sinkhole attack stands out. This research aims to develop a machine learning–based model to detect sinkhole‐type attacks in wireless sensor networks, with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 4 Mar 2026 · 1,659 accessesView PDFCite
