One of the major problems in UWSNs is how to transfer data from the mobile node to the base stations and choosing the optimized route for data transmission. Secure routing in UWSNs is necessary for packet delivery. A few researches have been done on secure routing in UWSNs. In this article, a new secure routing algorithm called Secure Routing Algorithm for Underwater (SRAU) sensor networks is proposed to resist against wormhole and sybil attacks. The results indicate acceptable performance in terms of increasing the packet delivery ratio regarding the wormhole and sybil attacks, increasing network lifetime through balancing the network energy consumption, high detection rates against the attacks, and decreasing the end to end delay.
