Abstract

A Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) is an assortment of a variety of portable nodes that are linked collectively in a greater number in a wireless medium that has no permanent infrastructure. Here, all the nodes in the network act as both router and host and is in charge for accelerating and forwarding packets to other nodes. Due to the frequent link failure and high speed of mobile nodes, there are many challenges in MANET. As security is the basic challenge in a MANET, this article discusses the various protocols developed for security issues in MANET and IoT and presents a comparative analysis on their performance. After detailed analysis and comparison, it was observed that when security features are imposed at different levels during routing, various protocols perform in different ways. Also, the network performance and network life times vary from one approach to another. So, this article also presents the effect of security features on data drop and delay of prominent protocols after simulation.

3. Study And Analysis Of Secured Routing Protocols In Manet And Iot

The operation of secure routing plays a very important role in MANETs security due to absence of fixed infrastructure. In this section complete study and analysis of MANET protocols which are basically using some IoT devices and technology are reported. Traditional Internet security methods cannot be applied in MANETs context in terms of not having clear line of defence. In this section a comparative analysis has also been carried out with different secured routing protocols with their security factor as the basic criteria. It is a very challenging task to manage security at the IoT environment as here many heterogeneous devices are networked together. Current research shows that the networks due to IoT are prone to many attacks such as malware, botnets, DoS (Denial of Service) attack, web-based malware, Android malware and spam. Therefore, there is need of developing a standard secured frame work for communication in IoT (Airehrour & Gutierrez, 2016).
