Mobile Ad hoc wireless networks (MANETs) assume no existing infrastructure is available for routing packets end-to-end in a network and instead rely on intermediary peers. The nodes in MANET are subject to various attacks that range from naïve eavesdropping to vicious battery draining attacks. Routing Protocols, data, bandwidth and battery power are the common target of theses attacks. This paper gives an overview of seven such secure routing protocols by presenting their characteristics and functionality along with their respective merits and drawbacks. A Comparison of these protocols is also presented based upon certain security parameters.

A mobile AD hoc network (MANETS) is a collection of mobile nodes which can dynamically form a temporary network without using any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) bring great challenges in security due to its high dynamics, link vulnerability, and complete decentralization. With routing being a critical aspect for MANETs, existing routing protocols, however, are not sufficient for security requirements. Limited bandwidth and mobilityrequire that ad hoc routing protocols be robust, simple, and energy conserving. This paper firstly analyzes the routing attacks of mobile Ad hoc networking, then elaborates and compares some ad hoc secure routing protocols, at last points the future researches.
