Abstract-The flexibility and mobility of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) have made them increasingly popular in a wide range of use cases. To protect these networks, security protocols have been developed to protect routing and application data. However, these protocols only protect routes or communication, not both. Both secure routing and communication security protocols must be implemented to provide full protection. The use of communication security protocols originally developed for wireline and WiFi networks can also place a heavy burden on the limited network resources of a MANET. To address these issues, a novel secure framework (SUPERMAN) is proposed. The framework is designed to allow existing network and routing protocols to perform their functions, whilst providing node authentication, access control, and communication security mechanisms. This paper presents a novel security framework for MANETs, SUPERMAN. Simulation results comparing SUPERMAN with IPsec, SAODV, and SOLSR are provided to demonstrate the proposed frameworks suitability for wireless communication security.

“…Furthermore, for disaster relief communication and tactical networks (see Figure 4) [4,5,6] they may also rely on mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs), which are highly dynamic mesh networks created by soldiers or members of emergency services. Due to the nature of these networks, they must incorporate distributed auto-configuration mechanisms that need to be able to cope with high churn, bad radio conditions, and potentially compromised VPN devices.…”

Virtual private networks (VPN) offer a secure data exchange over public networks. Despite being cheaper than leased lines, growing sizes and dynamic behavior of VPN nodes, e.g., for mobility or reasons of denial-of-service-attacks, make a manual configuration of large, dynamic VPN expensive.Consequently, a number of different VPN auto-configuration approaches have been invented and partially deployed over the last decade. This article identifies a comprehensive set of objectives to be fulfilled by IP-based VPN auto-configuration, explains and groups mechanisms, and analyzes their strengths and weaknesses with regards to the objectives. Finally, it identifies potential future directions of autonomous VPN deployment.

“…This dynamic nature of a mobile smart phone needs to use smartphone's changed domain specific routing address, referred to as its TIP, to route packets to it. [1] has shown the mechanism that application layer packets need address translation before they can be routed to their destination. [1] argues that there is a need for an application layer entity to be able to identify a node by means other than its routable address.…”

The presence of wireless links makes mobile ad hoc networks more vulnerable than wire-line networks to various forms of attack. Multimedia session communication applications over such ad hoc networks need a session key to encrypt session call traffic. This security requirement for session communications can be fulfilled by applying dynamic session key management architecture. In this paper, we propose a key agreement scheme that can be realized by encrypting mobile traffic with the agreed secret session key. We also propose a key control device (KCD) that can legally listen to any session call. We solve these contradictory sounding goals: encrypting call traffic and monitoring call traffic. The key agreement process forces a pair of call participants to calculate the Diffie-Hellman session key just before a call session begins. It starts by sending an SMS message for announcing its temporary IP address (TIP) and 'nonce' from the caller to the callee, so that the callee may learn the caller's TIP immediately at the beginning of each call and send a 'GET/nonce' command in an HTTP request line to perform the Diffie-Hellman public key exchanges with the caller. The nonce value will be used to prevent replay attacks and to thwart clogging attacks. In the proposed security control, one of the call pair is designated to report call information so that the KCD may compute the same secret session key as the call pair agree on.
