Aiming at the serious impact of the typical network attacks caused by the limited energy and the poor deployment environment of wireless sensor network (WSN) on data transmission, a trust sensing-based secure routing mechanism (TSSRM) with the lightweight characteristics and the ability to resist many common attacks simultaneously is proposed in this paper, at the same time the security route selection algorithm is also optimized by taking trust degree and QoS metrics into account. Performance analysis and simulation results show that TSSRM can improve the security and effectiveness of WSN.
