A Study on Wormhole Attacks in MANET
نویسندگان
چکیده
An Ad-hoc network is a self-organized network, without a central coordinator, and which frequently changes its topology. In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) under wormhole attack. Multiple QoS parameters have been considered here such as throughput, delay, packet delivery ratio, node energy and node density. The NS2 network simulator has been used and the reference point group mobility model (RPGM) is considered to study the effect of node density and the initial energy on the

A Lightweight Technique to Prevent Wormhole Attacks in AODV
Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is vulnerable to many types of routing attacks due to its dynamic topology and the collaboration of MANET nodes in finding routing paths. The wormhole attack is considered one of the most threatening attacks. The most popular MANET routing protocols such as ad hoc on demand distance victor (AODV) are vulnerable to this security threat. In this paper, a lightweight ...
متن کاملWormhole Detection and Prevention in MANET: A Review
As Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) doesn’t require pre-existing infrastructure, thus every node is active in data transmission and reception. In MANET various attacks are created by unauthorized transmitter in the network, which may affects on the performance of the network. Wormhole attack is created by collaborative attackers. So confrontation is take place between discoveries and dislodges thi...
متن کاملSecuring MANET against Wormhole Attack using Neighbor Node Analysis
In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) security is of major concern because of its inherent liabilities. The characteristics of MANETs like infrastructure less network with dynamic topology pose a number of challenges to security design. There is an increasing threat of attacks in MANET. Wormhole attack is one of the security attacks on mobile ad hoc networks in which a pair of colluding nodes make...
متن کاملTopological comparison-based wormhole detection for MANET
Wormhole attack is considered one of the most threatening security attacks for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). In a wormhole attack, a tunnel is setup in advance between two colluders. The colluders record packets at one location and forward them through the tunnel to another location in the network. Depending on whether or not the colluders are participating in the network functions, the wormh...
متن کاملSecuring Manet from Blackhole and Wormhole Attacks
Mobile Ad-Hoc networks are self-configuring and self-organizing multi-hop wireless networks. They do not have any fixed infrastructure or centralized management. Due to this, the ad hoc networks are vulnerable to attacks. The routing protocol for MANET considered in this paper is AODV(Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol). Blackhole and Wormhole nodes are malicious nodes which degr...

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) are vulnerable to both active and passive attacks. The wormhole attack is one of the most severe security attacks in wireless ad hoc networks, an attack that can be mounted on a wide range of wireless network protocols without compromising any cryptographic quantity or network node. In Wormhole attacks, one malicious node tunnels packets from its location to the ...
