Abstract:

Research in the field of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) has been increasing over the years due to its various applications and the need of communication in mobile devices. Conversely, as compared to wired networks or infrastructure based wireless networks; MANET is mainly vulnerable to security attacks due to its principal characteristics such as no decided boundaries, changing topologies, finite bandwidth, energy constraint and absence of centralized administration. The JellyFish attack is one such security attack. The JellyFish attack is a denial of service attack and also a kind of passive attack that is hard to detect. It creates delay of data packets, before their transmission and reception in the network. In this paper, we propose a solution to the JellyFish delay variance attack in ad-hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol for MANETs.
