However, the energy transfer capability may lead to unprecedented security challenges. In this paper, we will study energy security issues and the solutions in energy harvesting networks. We first identify typical energy related attacks and then propose defense solutions against these attacks. We also carry out security analysis and performance analysis to evaluate our proposed solutions. Simulation results have shownthat the proposed defense solutions are effective and efficient.}, year = {2015}, journal = {IEEE Communications Magazine}, volume = {53}, pages = {114-121}, month = {08/2015}, publisher = {IEEE}, }
