One of the generally used routing protocols for MANET is AODV (Ad hoc on demand Distance Vector), which is vulnerable to one of the particular type of security attack called blackhole attack. The characteristics of blackhole attack, a malicious node sends a false route reply without having any fresh route to a destination and is also drop all receiving packets and replay packet in the entire network. A certificateless based signature scheme enables users to generate their public key and private key without using any certificate. Due to this reason, we do not need any certificate authority (CA). In this paper, we propose a novel CLS scheme for prevention of a blackhole attack and also provide secure communication based on CLS scheme. Simulation results show that CLS scheme prevents blackhole attack successfully and is provide better performance to other existing schemes in the presence of blackhole node and also ensuring authentication, integrity and non-repudiation.

Secure communication is one of the basic requirements for any network standard. Particularly, cryptographic algorithms have gained more popularity to protect the communication in a hostile environment. As the critical information that is being transferred over the wireless adhoc networks can be easily acquired and is vulnerable to many security attacks. However, several security communication threats had been detected and defended using conventional symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic mechanism, which are too difficult and resource consuming for such mobile adhoc networks. Recently, one of the severe security threats that have to be detected and defend in any type of network topology is blackhole attack and cooperative blackhole. Because of its severity, the black hole attack has attracted a great deal of attention in the research community. Comprehensively the results of the existing system conclude that the black hole attack on various mobile adhoc networks is hard to detect and easy to implement. This paper addresses to detect and defend the blackhole attack and cooperative blackhole attack using hybrid DNA-based cryptography (HDC) mechanism. Moreover, the proposed method upsurge the security issue with the underlying AODV routing protocol. Eventually, This Hybrid DNA-based Cryptography (HDC) is one of the high potential candidates for advanced wireless ad hoc networks, which require less communication bandwidth and memory in comparison with other cryptographic systems. The simulation results of this proposed method provide better security and network performances as compared to existing schemes.

Mobile Ad Hoc

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a dynamic wireless network without any infrastructures. The network is weak and vulnerable to many types of attacks. One of these attacks is BlackHole. In this attack, a malicious node advertises itself as having a high sequence number and a shortest path to a specific node to absorb packets. The effect of BlackHole attack on ad-hoc network using AODV as a routing protocol will be examined in this research. We also propose a new mechanism, called DPBA-AODV, to detect and prevent BlackHole attacks on AODV protocol. Simulation result, by using NS2, depicts the efficiency of our proposed mechanism in packet delivery ratio under the presence of BlackHole nodes.

MANETs are infrastructure less i.e. their structure is not fixed, and the nodes be able to move about and can leave the network whenever they want. The nodes are to perform as more over router and host. In MANETs, the node can be in contact with every node as their configuration is not fixed and the nodes starts transmitting the packets to each other for the establishment of the connection. To hitch the link, the nodes make use of some routing protocols like Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), and DestinationSequenced Distance Vector (DSDV). Security in MANET is the key matter meant for the fundamental utility of network. There are many attacks caused in MANET. Blackhole attack is one that occurs in MANET. A Black hole attack is an attack where the node, which is malicious advertise itself as having the optimal route to the destination and drops all the packets instead of forwarding further to the destination. Here, we have shown the blackhole attack in AODV and DSR. Through simulation we evaluate the performance of the two above protocols under blackhole attack.</span></p>

Route Request

The general behavior of Mobile AdHoc Networks (MANETs) is different in certain stages due to its mode of operations and maintenance as well as factors such as NodeEnergy level, manipulation energy, randomly movable nature and the topology-changes. These type of dynamicity causes or needs over concentration and needs more security with routingstability. For eliminating these issues and improve the security, a new methodology called Fuzzy Secured Node Selection Routing (FSNSR) is defined, which provides the Trusted-Network-Service and better performance with energy efficiency in security and dynamicity perspectives. This algorithm FSNSR provides highreliability and dynamicity to nodes, which can move frequently without any security causes and attain more robustness during performance. The selection of next node selection and forwarding is purely based on the link-stability and nextneighbor availability, which is ensured by means of the parental node by sending route-request and getting response for the request. Once the neighbor provides the response properly for the raised request the node will be treated as a next successful neighbor, otherwise the node will be considered as a malicious node and which cannot be considered for next process further. The survey results further to guarantee regarding the network robustness, dynamicity, good packet delivery ratio, goodput and secure-routing over MANET with the help of Fuzzy Secured Node Selection Routing.

Abstract To organize the network in an efficient way to minimize the risk of illegal node and to safeguard protected information, a security mechanism is required to secure communication. In addition, a security mechanism is also required to ensure that received information have not been tampered with. In this paper, a more efficient mechanism for Securing the Destination Sequenced Distance Vector Routing Protocol (SDSDV) is proposed. This paper comprehensively investigates the performance impacts by varying the number of maximum connections and mobility on securing the ad hoc network with Destination Sequenced Distance Vector Routing Protocol (DSDV) Routing Protocol. From simulation results, we explore the causes for performance degradation. Based on the investigation, we indicate that we have to impose restrictions on the maximum connections to acquire an expected performance. These results also reveal that the performance decreases with the increment of the mobility and maximum connections that is unequal to 60. If we want to obtain the optimal performance, the number of nodes in a network should be constrained to be 60 if the maximum connections are 60.

Development of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has aroused extensive attention in recent years. The IoV requires an efficient communication mode when the application scenarios are complicated. To reduce the verifying time and cut the length of signature, certificateless aggregate signature (CL-AS) is used to achieve improved performance in resource-constrained environments like vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), which is able to make it effective in environments constrained by bandwidth and storage. However, in the real application scenarios, messages should be kept untamed, unleashed, and authentic. In addition, most of the proposed schemes tend to be easy to attack by signers or malicious entities which can be called coalition attack. In this paper, we present an improved certificateless-based authentication and aggregate signature scheme, which can properly solve the coalition attack. Moreover, the proposed scheme not only uses pseudonyms in communications to prevent vehicles from revealing their identity but also achieves considerable efficiency compared with state-of-the-art work, certificateless signature (CLS), and CL-AS schemes. Furthermore, it demonstrates that when focused on the existential forgery on adaptive chosen message attack and coalition attack, the proposed schemes can be proved secure. Also, we show that our scheme exceeds existing certification schemes in both computing and communication costs.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), when interconnected in a multi-hop ad-hoc fashion, or as a flying ad-hoc network (FANET), can efficiently accomplish mission-critical tasks. However, UAVs usually suffer from the issues of shorter lifespan and limited computational resources. Therefore, the existing security approaches, being fragile, are not capable of countering the attacks, whether known or unknown. Such a security lapse can result in a debilitated FANET system. In order to cope up with such attacks, various efficient signature schemes have been proposed. Unfortunately, none of the solutions work effectively because of incurred computational and communication costs. We aimed to resolve such issues by proposing a blind signature scheme in a certificateless setting. The scheme does not require public-key certificates, nor does it suffer from the key escrow problem. Moreover, the data that are aggregated from the platform that monitors the UAVs might be too huge to be processed by the same UAVs engaged in the monitoring task. Due to being latency-sensitive, it demands high computational capability. Luckily, the envisioned fifth generation (5G) mobile communication introduces multi-access edge computing (MEC) in its architecture. MEC, when incorporated in a UAV environment, in our proposed model, divides the workload between UAVs and the on-board microcomputer. Thus, our proposed model extends FANET to the 5G mobile network and enables a secure communication between UAVs and the base station (BS).
