A review on intrusion detection system in mobile ad-hoc network

Abstract

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) is the most useful network in present and it is used in many application. In the MANET prevention concept is not sufficient from the security point of view, so the detection concept is added. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is another concept to provide security in the network. Basically IDS is used to identify selfish and malevolent node in the network. Generally IDS concept is used in wired networks but incase of wireless network then it can no longer sufficient if we used it directly. Here we present the concept of MANET, IDS and we have discussed various existing IDS in MANET environment along with their pros and cons.
