A Mathematical Approach towards Mitigating the Effects of Wormhole Attack

Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc or spontaneous wireless networks are threatened by a powerful attack known as the wormhole attack. The wormhole attack is very powerful and preventing the attack has proven to be difficult. A strategic placement of the wormhole can result in a significant breakdown in communication across a wireless network. The nature of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks make them very attractive to attack. The detailed simulation of the wormhole attack can reflect the strength and nature of the attack. In this paper we studied the impact of the wormhole attack on the respective networks. The Wormhole attack was simulated on Different scenarios. The parameters like Average delay, Route discovery time, Average Hop length were calculated and effects were studied using different scenarios for evaluating the impact on MANETs. Comparing the results of both AODV and Proposed Protocol to analyze which of these two types of protocols are less vulnerable to Wormhole attack.
