Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) consists of mobile nodes that are connected via very dynamic multi-hop channels. Routing in MANET is a challenging task that has received great attention from researchers. In this paper we present Maximally Spatial Disjoint Multipath routing protocol (MSDM) which is a modification of AOMDV protocol. MSDM finds paths which are spatially separated and maximally disjointed. We think that sending various packets over spatially disjointed paths reduces the probability of collision occurrence and allows concurrent transmission over the set of different selected paths. Performance comparison of MSDM and AOMDV using GloMoSim simulator shows that MSDM is able to achieve a considerable improvement regarding some performance metrics such as delay, routing packets overhead, and network throughput.

“…In the Gray Hole Attack an adversary silently drops some or all of the data packets sent to it instead of forwarding them. Mavropodi [12] proposed an on-demand multipath routing protocol which they named secure multipath routing protocol (SecMR), and analyzed its security properties. Komninos et al [13] described the layered security approach, design criteria and performance analysis of some MANET security protocols.…”

“…So, the final message that will be sent from S to "next hop" will be: Each intermediate node I will perform the same steps that were done by S, with the exception that I will be using M 1 as the message to work on instead of M p . First, I separates the encrypted block from the encrypted list of nodes, saves the encrypted block as M 11 and the encrypted list as M 12 . Then it calculates the next hop, generates signature of M 11 using its own private key, generates block of {M 11 ||MAC(M 11 )|| timestamp} and encrypts it using destination's public key, and adds itself to M 12 and encrypts the result with the destination's public key.…”

Mobile ad-hoc networks are wireless self-organized networks in which mobile nodes can connect directly to each other. This fact makes such networks highly susceptible to security risks and threats, as malicious nodes can easily disguise as new trusted nodes and start attacking the network after a certain period of time. Hence, the security of data transmission in MANET has been a hot topic in the past years. Several research works attempted to detect and stop various attacks on MANET nodes and packets. This paper presents an efficient mechanism for secure data dissemination in MANETs. Our approach is based on the identity based cryptography and Message Authentication Code (MAC). The proposed security mechanism prevents malicious nodes from tampering or replaying intermediate packets by means of signing and encrypting the packet at each intermediate trusted node. We tested the efficiency of our system using the ns2 simulator by comparing it to a similar security mechanism. The simulations illustrate that our approach obtains many advantages over other existing approaches for secure data dissemination in MANETs.

“…In fact one of the main security issues in SRP is that it has no defence against the invisible node attack (INA) (Marshall et al, 2003) that simply puts itself (and possibly a large number of other invisible nodes) somewhere along the message path without adding itself to the path, thereby causing potentially big problems as far as routing goes. Mavropodi et al proposed an on-demand multipath routing protocol called Secure Multipath Routing (SecMR) (Mavropodi et al, 2007) protocol that can find multiple node disjoint routes with protection against denial-of-service (DoS) attacks from a bounded number of collaborating insider attackers. However, the authors have mentioned that SecMR protocol does not fully protect from Man-In-Middle (MIM) and invisible node attacks.…”

“…These protocols could be used to guarantee the acquisition of correct network topological information. For securing multipath routing in the wireless ad hoc network, several protocols such as Secure Routing Protocol (SRP) (Papadimitratos & Haas, 2002), Secure Multipath Routing Protocol (SecMR) (Mavropodi et al, 2007) and Secure, Disjoint, Multipath Source Routing Protocol (SDMSR) (Berton et al, 2006) can be used. Secure Routing Protocol (SRP) (Papadimitratos & Haas, 2002) assumes the shared symmetric key between the source and destination and data protection using Message Authentication Codes (MACs) in order to validate the authenticity and integrity.…”
