| Abstract | Communication in a Mobile ad hoc network is accomplished in a multi-hop fashion wherein the nodes themselves act as routers as well as source. MANET is vulnerable to a variety of insider as well as outsider attacks because of it's inherent characteristics like dynamically changing topology, limited power and no centralized authority to monitor the behaviour of the nodes . Most of the secure routing protocols focus on the control plane attacks targeting the different elements of the routing protocol but data plane attacks are more difficult to handle for which we need to ensure secure data forwarding since certain adversarial nodes may launch a number of attacks on the data transmission by simply dropping the packets without forwarding them. The current paper is an extension to our earlier work where we addressed one of the most difficult data plane attacks namely, the packet dropping attack. In our earlier work, we had proposed a secure hybrid routing protocol which combats the packet dropping attack carried on by an individual / colluding adversaries and elaborated upon the first two phases of Secure Least Cost route establishment and Detection of individual node / colluding nodes maliciously dropping packets. Once a node has been identified as an adversary, we need to work upon the remedial action to prevent the future routes from involving adversarial nodes. In the current paper, we elaborate upon the last two phases namely: Punishing the adversarial nodes upon misbehaviour detection and Propagation of information about node misbehaviour and good |
