A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network made of numerous small independent sensor nodes which sense the network by detecting events in the surrounding environment.. The Sensor Networks suffer from various security threats like (i) sink hole attack, (ii) black hole attack, (iii) wormhole attack and (iv) selective forwarding attacks (5) smurf attack. Selective forwarding attacks corrupt some mission critical applications such as battlefield surveillance, forest fire monitoring and military monitoring system. In these attacks, corrupted or malicious nodes behave like normal nodes in most time but selectively drop sensitive packets. The compromised node attempts to disrupt the normal communication process by selectively dropping the certain packets while forwarding the others. Such selective dropping is hard to detect. In this paper we have described all the existing defensive schemes according to our best knowledge against this attack and getting a better understanding related to this attack and its complete working scenario
