Abstract	In the event of a disaster, there is a severe damage/destruction to physical infrastructures such as telecommunication and power lines which result in the disruption of communication in this areas. For such scenarios, Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) provides an alternative means of communication. In Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs), a message from a source node may be delivered to the destination node despite the non-existence of an infrastructure and an end-to-end connectivity. However DTNs are susceptible to security threats such as DoS attacks targeted at disrupting relayed packets or dropping critical packets during a disaster rescue operation. DoS attacks consist of blackhole, grayhole, wormhole, packet flooding attacks etc. The scope of this paper is to study the impacts of blackhole and packet flooding attacks in a post disaster communication network using DTN. Various performance metrics in DTN have been used to study the impacts of different DoS attacks in DTN and a comprehensive analysis is presented.
