“…However, the detection time and false positive rate of this method were high. Imran et al [7] analyzed different wormhole detection techniques and identified a few common limitations of those techniques which may affect the performance of MANETs in different ways. Also, the features of MANETs were identified based on which wormhole attacks can be detected.…”

In Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs), the most challenging task is detecting and mitigating wormhole links during data transmission between the source and destination nodes. Since it requires special hardware, synchronized clocks, mobile nodes equipped with GPS, etc. To overcome these challenges, Artificial Immune System-based Improved Secureaware Wormhole Attack Detection (AIS-ISWAD) technique has been proposed that considers maximum end-to-end delay, path length and system parameters for detecting wormhole attacks. To simplify the detection process, AIS has been used as a learning approach that learns those parameters to detect the wormhole links and select an alternative route for transmitting the data packets. However, an uncertainty problem is addressed in AIS during computation of affinity value between antibody and antigen. Also, route selection is still not satisfied since data transmission requires a high-performance stable path from source to destination nodes. Therefore, the main goal of this article is handling the uncertainty problem during affinity computation and selecting the high-performance stable paths to transmit the data. In this paper, a Fuzzy Logic and AIS-ISWAD (FLAIS-ISWAD) technique is proposed to improve the wormhole attack detection and mitigation. In this technique, all computed parameters are given to the FL system to handle the uncertainty problem and construct the high-performance stable paths among all available paths in the network. Also, AIS is applied as a learning method to identify and isolate the wormhole links/nodes in MANETs with the highest network performance. Finally, the performance of the FLAIS-ISWAD technique is evaluated and compared through simulation results in terms of different performance metrics.

“…In a wormhole attack [49,50], the intruder captures the messages in one location and tunnel to another location to a fellow intruder who replays the tunneled messages in another location area. The attack discussed in scenario 3 can be regarded as a wormhole attack.…”

Authentication is one of the essential security services in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) for ensuring secure data sessions. Sensor node authentication ensures the confidentiality and validity of data collected by the sensor node, whereas user authentication guarantees that only legitimate users can access the sensor data. In a mobile WSN, sensor and user nodes move across the network and exchange data with multiple nodes, thus experiencing the authentication process multiple times. The integration of WSNs with Internet of Things (IoT) brings forth a new kind of WSN architecture along with stricter security requirements; for instance, a sensor node or a user node may need to establish multiple concurrent secure data sessions. With concurrent data sessions, the frequency of the re-authentication process increases in proportion to the number of concurrent connections. Moreover, to establish multiple data sessions, it is essential that a protocol participant have the capability of running multiple instances of the protocol run, which makes the security issue even more challenging. The currently available authentication protocols were designed for the autonomous WSN and do not account for the above requirements. Hence, ensuring a lightweight and efficient authentication protocol has become more crucial. In this paper, we present a novel, lightweight and efficient key exchange and authentication protocol suite called the Secure Mobile Sensor Network (SMSN) Authentication Protocol. In the SMSN a mobile node goes through an initial authentication procedure and receives a re-authentication ticket from the base station. Later a mobile node can use this re-authentication ticket when establishing multiple data exchange sessions and/or when moving across the network. This scheme reduces the communication and computational complexity of the authentication process. We proved the strength of our protocol with rigorous security analysis (including formal analysis using the BAN-logic) and simulated the SMSN and previously proposed schemes in an automated protocol verifier tool. Finally, we compared the computational complexity and communication cost against well-known authentication protocols.

Mobile ad-hoc network is one of the most attractive fields for research. Any new node easily entered or left the network because of this property is easily thretend by the attack.A wormhole is one of the most crucial attack of MANET in this paper, we study lots of prevention and detection technique. In our propose work we work on trust and reputation mechanism and then secure network novelity of proposed work we proof by our outcomes.
