چکیده
The security services of authentication and confidentiality are of significant importance to ensure secure communication in any network. The decentralized nature and the broadcast medium of communication of wireless ad hoc networks results in unique challenges in realizing the services of authentication and data confidentiality. In this chapter, We first highlight the issues relating to authentication and confidentiality in wireless ad hoc networks and identify the characteristics of these services. Subsequently, we discuss the security mechanisms proposed for authentication and confidentiality in wireless ad hoc networks. The chapter also includes a detailed discussion about the standards IEEE 802.1X (Authentication) and IEEE 802.11i (Confidentiality).

متن کاملA Survey on Security Issues in Wireless Ad hoc Network Routing Protocols
An ad hoc wireless network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes that self-configure to construct a network without the need for any established infrastructure or backbone. Ad hoc networks use mobile nodes to enable communication outside wireless transmission range. Due to the absence of any fixed infrastructure, it becomes difficult to make use of the existing routing techniques for network...

So,support of quality of service in ad hoc networks is the topical issue among the networkscience researchers. In this research we are go...
متن کاملSurvey of Security Threats and Counter Measures in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are pervasive, self-configuring, infrastructure-free, and ubiquitous devoid of any centralized authority. Mobile ad hoc networks have proved their efficiency in the deployment for different fields, but they are highly vulnerable to security attacks which is particularly challenging in wireless networks. The existing research that has been carried out provides auth...
متن کاملLEBRP - A Lightweight and Energy Balancing Routing Protocol for Energy-Constrained Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
A wireless ad hoc network typically refers to any set of wireless networks where all devices have equal status on a network and are free to associate with any other wireless ad hoc network devices in their range. As the nature of these networks, they commonly do not have external power supplies, and each node has a limited internal power source. In this paper, we put forward a new routing proto...
