Certification and Authentication Services for Securing MANET Routing Protocols
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we describe a new authentication service for securing mobile ad hoc network (MANET) routing protocols. A MANET authentication extension (MAE) is appended to each routing protocol message. Our design includes a self-organized certification service, adapted from [6] with the following improvements: appropriated initialization, correcting vulnerabilities in the original design; local certificate management; and support to multiple Certification Authorities. Our design is policy-configurable in the sense that certification and authentication services may be adjusted according to specific security requirements. We discuss the use of MAE and certification service for securing DSR, AODV, OLSR and TBRPF MANET routing protocols. We have implemented the MAE securing OLSR and we evaluate computational and network requirements for this case. .........................................................

Preventive and Corrective Protection for Mobile Ad Hoc Network Routing Protocols
In this paper we describe vulnerabilities and possible protections for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) routing protocols. Vulnerability and adversary models are built to describe impersonation, fabrication and modification attacks. A security model is proposed, considering both preventive and corrective protection. The basic preventive protection consists of a certificate-based authentication me...

: Mobile ad hoc networking (MANET) is gradually emerging to be very important in the growth of wireless technology. This is anticipated to offer a range of flexible services to mobile and nomadic users by means of integrated homogeneous architecture. The proper routing protocol is necessary for better communication in MANET. One of the existing reliable protocols is Ad Hoc On-Demand Vector Rout...
متن کاملComparative Performance Analysis of AODV,DSR, TORA and OLSR Routing Protocols in MANET Using OPNET
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are receiving a significant interest and are becoming very popular in the world of wireless networks and telecommunication. MANETs consist of mobile nodes which can communicate with each other without any infrastructure or centralized administration. In MANETs, the movement of nodes is unpredictable and complex; thus making the routing of the packets challenging....
متن کاملTrust Routing in MANET for Securing DSR Routing Protocol
In this paper, we describe a new authentication service and trust level attached in every packet to make the routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Network secure. Efficient operation of Ad Hoc networks is dependent on maintaining appropriate routing information in a distributed fashion. The routing protocol is vulnerable to attacks from malicious nodes. Therefore, our prime focus is on securing the routing ...
متن کاملRouting Protocol Based Shared and Session Key Exchange Protocol for Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network
Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a transitory and infrastructureless network supported by no fixed trusted infrastructure. To achieve security goals like: authentication, integrity, non-repudiation, privacy, a secret key (or session key) is necessary to be shared between the sender and receiver. Because of the nature of MANET, it is unrealistic in many circumstances to implement Certification A...
