Profile Based Approach to Secure MANET from Wormhole Attack

Computer Science And Engineering

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an ad hoc network in which mobile nodes are connected via wireless links. Since there is no central controller, it is difficult to ensure reliable and secure communication in mobile ad hoc networks. Wormhole attack works by creating a path between the sender and the receiver, but if the sender has already started transferring data, the wormhole attacker creates a direct connection with them, this is called wormhole Tunnel, which means transfer of more data. Trusted nodes mean that a higher rate of effective communication can be expected. In this article, we introduce detection and protection technology for wormhole attacks. According to the detections, it uses data set detection technology and calculates the number of attack packages, execution time, etc. We receive attacker node information such as: We then protect against wormhole attacks using our community's reliable and secure mobile private network communications. We provide secure and reliable communications in line with our recommendations and simulate them with Network Simulator 2 (NS-2).
