Securing Manet from Blackhole and Wormhole Attacks

چکیده
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 degrade the performance of the network. They actively participate in the network and conform to forward packets to the destination. The Watchdog Mechanism is used to correct the network from both blackhole and wormhole attacks. The networks originally, with the attacks and after being prevented from attacks are compared on the basis of packets received, throughput, end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio. ns2 software is used for the simulation. Key Word—MANET, AODV, Blackhole and Wormhole attacks, Watchdog mechanism

A Survey on Protocols & Attacks in MANET Routing
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a dynamic wireless network that can be formed without any pre-existing infrastructure in which each node can act as a router. MANET has no clear line of defense, so, it is accessible to both legitimate network users and malicious attackers. In the presence of malicious nodes, one of the main challenges in MANET is to design the robust security solution that ca...

متن کاملA Performance Study of Various Security Attacks on AODV Routing Protocol in MANET
Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a self-configuring wireless network of movable and independent nodes which operate without the support of any permanent infrastructure, hence MANET has dynamic topology. In MANET, each node forwards traffic unrelated to its own use. Despite the proliferation of MANET, it is prone to various attacks which include blackhole attack, grayhole attack, flooding attack...

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...

A Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANETs) follows a dynamic topology with distributed architecture. MANETs has no basic infrastructure also has no fixed access point or routers, where in the nodes moves in an undefined manner in a specified area of work. Basically, the distributed dynamic architecture is vulnerable to various kinds of attacks like blackhole, wormhole flooding, etc. Providing a security ...
