SEAMAN: A Security-Enabled Anonymous MANET Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mobile ad hoc networks or MANETs are supposed to play an important role in future military communication. MANETs offer quickly deployable network functionality even when the existing infrastructure is damaged or unusable. But while offering many advantages, the MANET technologies today are facing new security threats. These threats arise from the simplicity to eavesdrop on the wireless medium and launch direct attacks against the routing protocol. A MANET protocol concept that deals with these challenges is presented in this paper.

ANAP: Anonymous Authentication Protocol in Mobile Ad hoc Networks
The pervasiveness of wireless communication recently gave mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) a significant researcher’s attention, due to its innate capabilities of instant communication in many time and mission critical applications. However, its natural advantages of networking in civilian and military environments make them vulnerable to security threats. Support for an anonymity in MANET is an ...
متن کاملLightweight Anonymous Routing for Reliability in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) are particularly vulnerable on account of their intrinsic characteristics of open medium, dynamic topology, absence of central authorities, distributed cooperation and constrained capability. These vulnerabilities create significant challenges for routing protocols operating in the entire network. Anonymous routing is a value-added technique used in MANET for the ...
متن کاملOn Anonymous On-Demand Source Routing Protocol for MANETs
Due to the unique features of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), traditional wired anonymous protocols cannot be directly adopted in MANETs. On the other hand, skillful as they are, existing MANET anonymous routing protocols only alter the content of routing packets in conventional MANET routing protocols, which make them subject to inherent defects. This paper proposes a novel anonymous on deman...
متن کاملTrust Based Data Security and Secure Anonymous Routing For MANETs
For many applications of the mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) deployed in adversary environments, anonymous communications with data confidentiality and integrity is important. A major requirement is to provide unidentifiability and unlinkability to the mobile nodes and their traffics.The existing protocols are vulnerable to security threats like global eavesdropper attacks, fake routing packets...
متن کاملSecure Routing Protocol: Affection on MANETs Performance
In mobile ad hoc networks, the absence ofinfrastructure and the consequent absence of authorizationfacilities impede the usual practice of establishing a practicalcriterion to distinguishing nodes as trusted and distrusted.Since all nodes in the MANETs would be used as router inmulti-hop applications, secure routing protocols have vital rulein the security of the network. So evaluating the perf...
