‘Secure routing in Mobile Ad hoc networks’ and ‘Internet connectivity to Mobile Ad hoc networks’ have been dealt separately in the past research. This paper proposes a light weight solution for secure routing in integrated Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET)-Internet. The proposed framework ensures mutual authentication of Mobile Node (MN), Foreign Agent (FA) and Home Agent (HA) to avoid various atta...

Wireless sensor network are constituted by a large number of tiny size sensors and distributed randomly for gathering information. These types of networks have remarkable applications and demand worldwide. The wireless sensor network has been suffered with variety of attacks because of its design and deployment nature. The previous traditional approaches including cryptography, authentication c...

MANET is a cooperative wireless network in which mobile nodes are responsible for routing and forwarding packets from and to other nodes. Noncooperation is a challenge that definitely degrades the performance of MANET. A misbehaving or selfish node may make use of other nodes in the network, but decline to share its own resources with them. These selfish nodes may severely affect the performanc...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a self-organized cooperative network that works without any permanent infrastructure. This infrastructure less design makes it complex compared to other wireless networks. Lot of attacks and misbehavior obstruct the growth and implementation. The majority of attacks and misbehavior can be handled by existing protocols. But, these protocols reduce the total str...

A mobile Ad Hoc network (MANET) may be a wireless network that doesn't take any fixed infrastructure (such as routing services, such as access points and wired networks), and whose nodes should cooperate among themselves to view characteristic and routing. The standard manner of secure networks isn't directly suitable to MANETs. intrusion detection systems (IDSs), that monitor system services a...

Sybil attacker is the routing layer active attacker that replies with multiple identification number (ID's) to nodes that forward request to attacker in a different time instant and drop the data forwarded to attacker after link establishment. The proposed research work is provides the novel secure Intrusion Detection System (IDS) against routing misbehavior of Sybil attack in MANET. The IDS ar...

The continuously self-configuring, Infrastructure less Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) route in effective manner by utilizing the voluntary cooperating nodes. That is the ability of each node to move independently and freely, thus can configure the links to other nodes frequently. Certain node refuse to cooperate and leads to the selfish behavior and such nodes are named as selfish nodes, whose...
