Abstract :
Rapid progress in technology have also increased the demand of networked systems. Due to the significance of information that travels through these systems, security issues in wired and wireless networks have become a prime concern. Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is a promising technology that provides robust and convenient networking options in a number of situations. However, MANETs are more vulnerable to security threats due to their dynamic and undefined organization structure. This paper presents a detailed review analysis of the security requirements of MANETs. The focus of this research is the network layer security problems in MANETs. The study was carried out for network layer attacks and Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol and some of its variants that provide security solutions to network layer attacks in MANETs.
