PPN: Prime product number based malicious node detection scheme for MANETs

Abstract

A mobile adhoc network is an autonomous network that consists of nodes which communicate with each other with wireless channel. Due to its dynamic nature and mobility of nodes, mobile adhoc networks are more vulnerable to security attack than conventional wired and wireless networks. One of the principal routing protocols AODV used in MANETs. The security of AODV protocol is influence by malicious node attack. In this attack, a malicious node injects a faked route reply claiming to have the shortest and freshest route to the destination. However, when the data packets arrive, the malicious node discards them. To preventing malicious node attack, this paper presents PPN (Prime Product Number) scheme for detection and removal of malicious node.

Anomalous Node Detection and Removal in Ad-hoc Network using Enhanced Prime Product Scheme

“…The X-axis of the graph represents Number of nodes and Y-axis represents the Network Throughput. The graph demonstrates that AODV routing protocol with proposed method always perform better than standard base method given in paper [13]. The results of the experiments showed that in the presence of 4-10% malicious node,.…”

“…However, once the information packets arrive, the malicious node discards them. To preventing malicious node attack, paper [13] presents PPN (Prime Product Number) theme for detection and removal of malicious node.…”

Evaluation Performance of Worm-Hole Attack Using Proposed AODV In MANET

“…But, when data packets arrive, malicious nodes discard them. To prevent malicious node attack, PPN (Prime Product Number) scheme was presented to detect and remove malicious node by Gambhir and Sharma [13]. Active Peer-to-Peer (P2P) worms attack neighbour peers based on a hit-list and pose a threat to both P2P network and Internet.…”

Survey of Malicious Attacks in MANET

“…Source node (SN) broadcast RREQ to destination and in response intermediate node (IN) wishing to send RREP has to provide product of all prime numbers (PPN) from destination to source and also information of its cluster head. Upon receiving the RREP message from IN, SN with the help of its cluster head (CH) will divide the PPN with the Node IDs stored in neighbor table at CH to see whether IN is its reliable node [6]. If PPN is fully divisible, then intermediate node is a reliable node, else it is malicious node and CH adds it to malicious list and broadcast it to whole network to remove it from the routing table.…”

“…The method of detection and removal of malicious node by using prime product number (PPN) is used in [6]. In this scheme each node has unique prime number.…”
