The security of wireless networks has been a constant topic in the recent years. With the advance ofwireless networks, building reliable and secured communication is becoming extremely important.Wireless security is a mechanism of preventing unauthorized access or damage to computers usingwireless networks. A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a self-organizing system of mobile nodes thatcommunicate with each other through wireless links with no fixed infrastructure or centralizedadministration. This paper presents potential security attacks on Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector(AODV) routing protocol and their countermeasure. IETF standardized AODV and considered as one ofthe most popular and promising on-demand routing protocols because of its lower network overhead andalgorithm complexity. AODV protocol does not store all the routing information in its routing table andthis causes potential security threat to the wireless networks. In this paper, we consider various knownsecurity attacks and in- specific blackhole attack on AODV and propose a countermeasure to thwartblackhole attack. |
