The issues of information security monitoring of remote of devices self-organizing wireless networks are discussed. The model of interaction of the remote devices is shown, the analyzed characteristics of identification of node abnormal behavior for different types of topologies are identified. The approach to the assessment with the use of the selected features of the system is suggested. The experiment, providing the obtainment of statistical information about the remote devices in different modes of ad-hoc networks is revealed. The results of the system activity for a broadcast packet of network scanning with given characteristics are presented. The dependences of the responses from sleeping and waking devices for variable system structure based on ad-hoc wireless networks are given. The feature of this approach is that it allows using the built-in set of commands that gives the opportunity to avoid additional costs when constructing the control system for wireless sensor networks.
