A Novel Technique for the Prevention of Wormhole Attack

چکیده
A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructure less self-configured collection of mobile nodes that can arbitrarily change their geographic locations such that these networks have dynamic topologies and random mobility with constrained resources. Security has become a primary concern in order to provide protected communication between mobile nodes in an aggressive environment. The absence of any central coordination mechanism and shared wireless medium makes MANETs more vulnerable to cyber attacks than wired network. Different mechanisms have been proposed using various cryptographic techniques to countermeasures these attacks against MANET. The Wormhole attack at network layer is the most attention seeking attack in ad hoc networks. This attack is hard to detect and easy to implement. This paper presents a novel technique to prevent wormhole attack

A two-phase wormhole attack detection scheme in MANETs
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) have no fixed infrastructure, so all network operations such as routing and packet forwarding are done by the nodes themselves. However, almost all common existing routing protocols basically focus on performance measures regardless of security issues. Since these protocols consider all nodes to be trustworthy, they are prone to serious security threats. Wormhole...

The proper management of wireless mesh network is a challenging task due to the mobility of node and velocity of node. All devices work in open channel area due to this security is very challenging task. Because due to mobility and open channel area possibility of threats and attacks are very high. On the basis of related work we found data wormhole attack is a serious attack in the environment...

In Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) mobile node is responsible for route establishment using wireless link where each node may behave like both as a host and router. MANET encounters number of security threats because of its open entrusted environment, with little security arrangement, security over MANET can be enhance up to some satisfactory level because of its inherent characteristics. Among s...

As Mobile Ad-hoc network is infrastructure less network in which every node can take part in data transmission and reception process. Various kinds of attacks have been arises in the network during transmission, which affects on the performance of the network. Wormhole attack is one attack from them which is created by collaborative attackers. Different techniques have developed to detect & pre...

The wormhole attack in Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) decreases the network performance by dropping the No. of Packets. Many techniques have been proposed to so far reduce the impact of the wormhole attack by detecting and preventing it. But, related work indicates that no technique is perfect for every kind of circumstances of WSNs. Among the existing techniques, Watchdog technique has better...
