Each node participating in the network acts both as a host and a router. A number of routing protocols like Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), and Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector (DSDV) have been implemented. Though, these protocols work well in routing the wireless traffic but they are vulnerable to many attacks. Therefore, there is a need of protocol, which not only provides the routing but also the security to the network and user data. In this paper, I explore the working and performance of secure extensions to these protocols. Project Specification: 1. I am planning to understand, analyze and compare protocols that provide security in Mobile Ad-Hoc networks. Ariadne, SEAD, ARAN. 2. I would like to evaluate to each protocol on the following grounds Basic Underlying Assumptions • Conditions assumed for successful operation of protocol. • Key Setup assumptions. Efficiency • Computational resources required • Energy Consumption • Average execution time for generation and authentication of keys Security against following attacks • Attacks Using Modification • Attacks Using Impersonation • Attacks Using Fabrication • Advanced Attacks 1. Wormholes 2. Black holes 3. Rushing 4. Gray Hole 5. Partition of Network 6. Gratuitous Detour Viability from Implementation point of view 2Secure Ad-Hoc Routing – final draft 3. I will try to identify the most secure and efficient protocol and try to propose guidelines to implement the same. 4. Format of tentative Final Report • Introduction to Ad-hoc Networks • Existing Ad-Hoc Protocols • Security Objectives • Threats and Attacks • Secure Routing Protocols • Security against Advanced Attacks • Analysis of Protocols • Conclusion • References 5. Time Schedule • Oct 7th - Study of all basic Protocols • Oct 15th - Review of other protocols that could be considered. • Oct 29th - Compare Protocols for security • Nov 12th - Comparison of protocols for Performance • Dec 3rd - Final Progress Report 6. Possible Changes I am not sure about the possible changes, but if I am able to implement ARAN I would like to conduct experiments on each protocol evaluate them for different parameters. 7.
