One of the most wanted wireless networks is Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). MANET can configure easily without using any facility which one is available at present as an infrastructure oriented wired or wireless network. It is one of the infrastructures less network consist of mobile devices. Individually each and every device in the Mobile ad hoc network will act as a router as well as node which provide the flexibility in the physical topology, optimal routing and data communication.In this paper, A Security improved AODV (SIm AODV) routing protocol is proposed for Ad-hoc networks which typically suits to resolve the security issues like Link Failure, Black Hole Attack, and Malicious Node Intrusion Attack. The proposed SIm AODV algorithm is incorporated and evaluate with OMNetpp 4.3 simulation.
Out of order arrival of packets is an inevitable phenomenon on the Internet. Application performance can degrade to a great extent due to out arrival of packets Packet reordering is a common phenomenon on the Internet. Moreover, transparently from the user and application processes. In this paper, we propose a novel covert channel technique using the packet reordering phenomenon as a host for carrying secret communications. This makes it an attractive medium to exploit for sending hidden signals to receivers by dynamically manipulating packet order in a network flow. In our approach, specific permutations of successive packets are selected to enhance the reliability of the channel, while the frequency distribution of their usage is tuned to increase stealthiness by imitating real Internet traffic. It is very expensive for the adversary to discover the covert channel due to the tremendous overhead to buffer and sort the packets among huge amount of background traffic. A simple tool is implemented to demonstrate this new channel. We studied extensively the robustness and capabilities of our proposed channel using both simulation and experimentation over large varieties of traffic characteristics. The reliability a capacity of this technique have shown promising results. We also investigated a practical mechanism for distorting and potentially preventing similar novel channels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
