Wireless ad-hoc networks are vulnerable to clone attacks or node replication attacks as they are deployed in hostile and unattended environments where they are deprived of physical protection, needed physical tamper-resistance of sensor nodes. As a result, an attacker can easily capture and compromise sensor nodes and after replicating them, he inserts arbitrary number of clones/replicas into the network. If these clones are not simply detected, an attacker can be further capable to mount a wide variety of internal attacks which can emasculate the various protocols and device applications. Certain solutions have been proposed in the literature to address the crucial problem of clone detection, which are not satisfactory as they suffer from some serious drawbacks. In this paper we propose an Energy-Efficient Star Based Clone Detection (ESCD) protocol which includes observer selection for verification stage. Our protocol can also achieve better efficiency as well as it becomes trustful system.
