Abstract

Abstract The black hole attack is one of the well-known security threats in wireless mobile ad hoc networks. The intruders utilize the loophole to carry out their malicious behaviors because the route discovery process is necessary and inevitable. Many researchers have conducted different detection techniques to propose different types of detection schemes. In this paper, we survey the existing solutions and discuss the state-of-the-art routing methods. We not only classify these proposals into single black hole attack and collaborative black hole attack but also analyze the categories of these solutions and provide a comparison table. We expect to furnish more researchers with a detailed work in anticipation.

Highlights

  • Wireless mobile ad hoc network is a selfconfiguring network which is composed of several movable user equipment

  • We focus on different types of black hole attacks in MANET which can be divided into ordinary black hole attack and collaborative black hole attack

  • Before a mobile node wants to communicate with a target node, it should broadcast its present status to the neighbors due to the current routing information is unfamiliar

Summary

Introduction

Wireless mobile ad hoc network (or MANET throughout this paper) is a selfconfiguring network which is composed of several movable user equipment. These mobile nodes communicate with each other without any infrastructure, all of the transmission links are established through wireless medium. The misbehavior routing problem [11] is one of the popularized security threats such as black hole attacks.
