“…Zeshan et al [2] proposed a twofold solution to detect and identify malicious nodes in network by setting Tmax (maximum threshold) and monitoring nodes to declare misbehaving nodes. Sen et al [3] proposed a cooperative scheme used to detect malicious node, as every node in network monitors the behavior of its neighbors upon abnormal action. Distributed algorithm is used to confirm attack in network.…”

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a group of mobile (or temporarily stationary) nodes which provides the ability to stream voice, data, and video between arbitrary pairs of devices utilizing the others as relays to avoid the need for infrastructure. There are many techniques which are employed in order to provide robust MANET capability like self-forming, link adaptation, transparent IP Networking, and multicast support. Its rapidly changing network topology, which is unpredictable over time, makes MANET vulnerable to wide range of attacks. It is very tedious to detect some attacks when it becomes a part of network. Ad hoc ondemand distance vector (AODV) is a popular reactive routing protocol but exposed to well-known packet dropping attack, where a malicious node intentionally drops packets without forwarding them to destination. In this paper, we discuss the security mechanisms, namely data routing information (DRI), cross-checking, and retard-mode operations, to defend against packet dropping attack in MANET with results simulated in ns-2 to show the improvement in packet delivery ratio.

“…For example in [28], the authors propose a protection scheme against a data packet dropping attack based on the cooperative participation of nodes. This scheme requires every node in the network to monitor the behaviour of its neighbours; when it detects packet dropping it invokes a distributed approach to investigate the attack.…”

Abstract-In the last decade, mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have emerged as a major next generation wireless networking technology. However, MANETs are vulnerable to various attacks at all layers, including in particular the network layer, because the design of most MANET routing protocols assumes that there is no malicious intruder node in the network. In this paper, we present a survey of the main types of attack at the network layer, and we then review intrusion detection and protection mechanisms that have been proposed in the literature. We classify these mechanisms as either point detection algorithms that deal with a single type of attack, or as intrusion detection systems (IDSs) that can deal with a range of attacks. A comparison of the proposed protection mechanisms is also included in this paper. Finally, we identify areas where further research could focus.Index Terms-Intrusion detection and prevention, mobile ad hoc networks, network layer attacks, securing ad hoc networks.

“…Since, the values of F A , r 2 and x are all known to node A, it can compute the value of r 1 using (13). Once the values of r 1 and r 2 are computed by node A, it can compute the value of (a + b + c) using (6).…”

“…An aggregation tree is constructed that monitors the activities of the aggregator nodes. The child nodes of an aggregator monitor the incoming data to the aggregator using the neighborhood watch mechanism [13], and invoke a voting protocol if any suspicious activity by the aggregator node is observed.…”

Abstract-Data aggregation in intermediate nodes (called aggregator nodes)is an effective approach for optimizing consumption of scarce resources like bandwidth and energy in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, in-network processing poses a problem for the privacy of the sensor data since individual data of sensor nodes need to be known to the aggregator node before the aggregation process can be carried out.In applications of WSNs, privacy-preserving data aggregation has become an important requirement due to sensitive nature of the sensor data. Researchers have proposed a number of protocols and schemes for this purpose. He et al. (INFOCOM 2007) have proposed a protocol -called CPDA -for carrying out additive data aggregation in a privacy-preserving manner for application in WSNs. The scheme has been quite popular and well-known. In spite of the popularity of this protocol, it has been found that the protocol is vulnerable to attack and it is also not energy-efficient. In this paper, we first present a brief state of the art survey on the current privacypreserving data aggregation protocols for WSNS. Then we describe the CPDA protocol and identify its security vulnerability. Finally, we demonstrate how the protocol can be made secure and energy efficient.
