Avoiding Wormhole Attack in MANET using Statistical Analysis Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
MANET is a collection of mobile hosts with wireless network interfaces that form a temporary network without any fixed infrastructure or centralized administration. MANET is infrastructure-less, lack of centralized monitoring and dynamic changing network topology. MANET is highly vulnerable to attack due to open error prone shared wireless medium. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for avoiding and preventing the wormhole attacks in MANET using statistical analysis approach. Simulation results shows that proposed algorithm provides better security and performance in the presence of wormhole attack than conventional AODV.

Securing 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 کاملA Hop-Count Analysis Scheme for Avoiding Wormhole Attacks in MANET
MANET, due to the nature of wireless transmission, has more security issues compared to wired environments. A specific type of attack, the Wormhole attack does not require exploiting any nodes in the network and can interfere with the route establishment process. Instead of detecting wormholes from the role of administrators as in previous methods, we implement a new protocol, MHA, using a hop-...

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...
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...
