Abstract

This paper explores the security challenges associated with data transmission in precision agriculture, emphasizing the vulnerabilities introduced by wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To mitigate these risks, we provide a comprehensive analysis of different types of cyber attacks targeting WSNs, along with detection, prevention, and defense strategies to safeguard agricultural data and ensure the reliability of smart farming systems.
