A SURVEY ON THREATS & PROTECTION PROBLEMS IN AD HOC NETWORK

Radio technologies such as Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11 are the innovative concept of networking becomes known is Ad hoc networking where potential mobile consumers appear in the array for communication. Network technology is important and greater extent for both military and commercial circulated and group based applications where security is the fundamental need and requirement for mobile ad hoc network when compared to wired networks. MANETs is dependent to attack the secure information due to the need of a confidence centralized authority and limited resources. Ad hoc networks are attacked which is classified as passive and active attacks, the safe secure measures of services such as privacy, authenticity and data integrity are important for both wired and wireless networks to prevent the necessary applications. The major difficulty in the structure of the networks is their susceptibility to security attacks. This survey helps us to understand the threats an ad hoc network faces and the security aim to be acquired.
