Abstract Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) is an infrastructure-less, self-motivated, arbitrary, self-configuring, rapidly changing, multi-hop network that is self-possessing wireless bandwidth-conscious links without centrally managed router support. In such a network, wireless media is easy to snoop. It is firm to the surety to access any node, easier to insertion of bad elements or attackers for malicious activities in the network. Therefore, security issues become one of the significant considerations for such kind of networks. The deployment of an effective intrusion detection system is important in order to provide protection against various attacks. In this paper, a Digitally Signed Secure Acknowledgement Method (DSSAM) with the use of the RSA digital signature has been proposed and simulated. Three different parameters are considered viz. secure acknowledgment, node authentication and packet authentication for study. This article observes the DSSAM performance and compares it with two existing standard methods, namely, Watchdog and 2-ACK under standard Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) routing environment. In the end, it is noticed that the rate of detection of malicious behaviour is better in the case of the proposed method. However, associated overheads are high. A trade-off between performance and overhead has been considered.

A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is a self-organizing, infrastructure-less network of mobile nodes connecting by wireless links. In operation, the nodes of MANETs do not have a central control mechanism. It is known for its properties of routable network, where each node acts as a router to forward packets to other specific nodes in the network. The unique properties of MANET have made it useful for large number of applications and led to a number of security challenges. Security in the mobile ad hoc network is a very critical job and requires the consideration of different security issues on all the layers of communication. The countermeasures are the functions that reduce or eliminate security vulnerabilities and attacks. This chapter provides a comprehensive study of all prominent attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks described in the literature. It also provides various proactive and reactive approaches proposed to secure the MANETs. Moreover, it also points to areas of research that need to be investigated in the future.


Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is essentially a framework much less network. It carries out certainly not demand any kind of predetermined network. Every nodule is serving as a recipient and also a transmitter. All the nodules in the MANET are essentially taken on as functioning within a welcoming as well as collaborative network circumstance. There is essentially no base station to handle the relocating gadgets. There is essentially no safety to guard the nodules. Any kind of nodule may function as a misbehaving nodule. Such uncooperative habits may significantly diminish network efficiency as well as might also cause complete interaction failure. The destructive nodules may effortlessly assault the mobile nodules. In this particular newspaper, our experts have essentially suggested an Intrusion Detection System through which the harmful nodules are essentially spotted and also certainly there due to the functionality of the network are going to be essentially raised.
