“…Nowadays multimedia applications (e.g., video transmission) require high routing efficiency. Our existing anonymous routing protocols [1] generate a significantly high cost, which badly affect the resource constraint problem in MANETs. A MANET employed in a battlefield, with a high-cost anonymous routing and low quality of service in voice and video data transmission due to depleted resources may lead to disastrous delay in military operations.…”

Anonymous routing protocols are used in MANET's to hide the nodes from outsiders in order to protect from various attacks. HPAR partitions the network area dynamically into zones and chooses nodes in zones randomly as intermediate relay nodes .This relay nodes help in secure routing. In HPAR anonymity protection is given to source, destination and route. HPAR have low cost and provide high level of protection. It has techniques to counter various attacks.

“…Hence it should have counter measures to be safe from all attacks which harm it. Second S-ALERT system is not feasible for network models [11], [22], so there is need to make some changes in S-ALERT. It can also achieve comparable routing efficiency to the base-line GPSR algorithm.…”

An innominate communication method in MANETS is categorized into proactive method, re-active method and anonymous routing method. Re-active routing is further divided into two methods, which includes superfluous traffic and routing hop-by-hop encryption. Whereas MANETs has various choices in respect to anonymous routing protocols, to provide location innominate safety to information, source node and destination node. However, a previous innominate routing protocol fully depends on station by station encryption or superfluous traffic which generates a heavy cost and offer low anonymity protection. Hence to offer a very high innominate protection, S-ALERT is pro-posed. Basic idea behind S-ALERT is to divide the whole network into number of nodes and then allocate each node a unique Id, so that we can differentiate source node and destination node. Followed by dynamic partition of network into zones and then randomly choosing nodes in zones as random forwarder, which forms a non trace-able innominate route. Along with, it also hides the source/destination node among many source/destination, in order to give very high safety to source node and destination node. It is observed that S-ALERT gives better as compared to other protocols. Hence S-ALERT protocol achieves full anonymity protection and that to at very least cost.

MANET is a type of wireless network without a fixed topology and consists of set of self-organized nodes. The nodes are randomly, frequently and unpredictably mobile. The inherent features make them an ideal choice in military and civilian communication applications. Major performance constraint of these types of networks comes from security attacks due to the dynamic topology and lack of centralized monitoring authority. Both passive and active attacks adversely affect the normal functionality of the network. Passive attackers monitor the network traffic and nodes in the networks. Active attacks like Blackhole attackers can drop packets partially or completely from the network. Secure routing protocol can conceal the identities and locations of route, source and destination to provide security and privacy from intruder's attacks. So in this paper, a route selection method is introduced for MANET which improves the security features for source, destination and route against passive attacks and specified active attacks. The developed method dynamically partitions the entire communication area in to different zones and randomly chooses a position from the divided zones as the temporary destination. The node which is very close to the position is selected as the random forwarder node and data is transmitted through random forwarder node using GPSR. The proposed method provide both identity and location anonymity to nodes. Methods are also proposed for avoiding the timing attacks. Position of active attacker like Blackhole attackers in the route are obtained and eliminated by using Homomorphic Message Authentication method.
