Abstract

In a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), nodes communicate wirelessly, facing unique challenges. Traditional MANETs suffer from issues like erroneous transmission and vulnerability to unauthorized nodes joining the network, posing security risks. Authentication within MANETs is a significant security concern, prompting ongoing research for enhancements. Our solution integrates multimodal biometric authentication with RSA and AES encryption, providing robust security for user authentication and data protection in MANETs. This approach effectively addresses risks such as unauthorized access and data tampering, crucial for secure communication in dynamic, resource-limited MANET environments. Our proposed system utilizes a combination of face and fingerprint biometrics for encryption, enhancing network security. Through testing, our system demonstrates a high authentication rate of 92.42% with minimal processing times: 0.042 ms for key generation, 0.019 ms for encryption, and 0.032 ms for decryption, based on a 1024-bit key size. These practical results showcase the resilience and efficiency of our secure system.
