Review of Security Issues in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Abstract

Numerous technologies are being evolved in the everyday life. The researchers’ concentration is
gained increasingly by these growing modern technologies. A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET)
is a self-configuring along with a self-organizing network devoid of an infrastructure utilized by
wireless mobile devices. Several kinds of security measures are being adopted; even then, there
occur attacks often. Innovative methodologies are invented by the attacker for attacking. To
guard data numerous technologies have been established whereas simultaneously, another
methodology will be implemented to hack the information. All the technology is comprised of
pros and cons, in the same way, MANETS are also included in that category. The MANETS’
security threats, challenges, along with complications are reviewed in this paper. The various
methodologies utilized in the latest literature to sort out the MANETS’ security problems are
significantly surveyed in this manuscript. On the regions of identification of malicious activity,
malicious node detection, methodologies, performance evaluation, along with Energy
Consumption (EC), the theoretical interpretation is performed.
