Discovering a Secure Path in MANET by Avoiding Black Hole Attack
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), a source node must rely on intermediate nodes to forward its packets along multihop routes to the destination node. Due to the lack of infrastructure in such networks, secure and reliable packet delivery is challenging. The performance of a Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is closely related to the capability of the implemented routing protocol to adapt itself to unpredictable changes of topology network and link status. One of this routing protocol is OLSR [1] (Optimized Link State Routing Protocol) which assumes that all nodes are trusted. However, in hostile environnement, the OLSR is known to be vulnerable to various kinds of malicious attacks. This paper proposes a cooperative black hole attack against MANETs exploiting vulnerabilities of OLSR. In this attack, two attacking nodes cooperate in order to disrupt the topology discovery and prevent routes to a target node from being established in the network. Keywords—MANET; OLSR; Security; Routing Protocol Cooperative black hole attack

Secure 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...

Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs) are open to a wide range of attacks due to their unique characteristics like dynamic topology, shared medium, absence of infrastructure, and resource constraints. Data packets sent by a source node may reach destination through a number of intermediate nodes. In the absence of security mechanism, it is easy for an intermediate node to intercept or modify the messa...

The wireless mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is set of dissimilar types of mobile nodes. These nodes in MANET communicate with each other without any fixed infrastructure. Because of MANET’s infrastructure network is unprotected from the attacks of malicious nodes. One of the attacks is called black hole attack. In MANET black hole attack is occurring easily. In the black hole attack node falsie ...
