  • The nature of wireless transmission has made wireless sensor networks defenseless against various attacks. This paper presents warning message counter method (WMC) to detect blackhole attack, grayhole attack and sinkhole attack in wireless sensor networks. The objective of these attackers are, to draw the nearby network traffic by false routing information and disrupt the network operation through dropping all the received packets (blackhole attack), selectively dropping the received packets (grayhole and sinkhole attack) and modifying the content of the packet (sinkhole attack). We have also attempted light weighted symmetric key cryptography to find data modification by the sinkhole node. Simulation results shows that, WMC detects sinkhole attack, blackhole attack and grayhole attack with less false positive 8% and less false negative 6%.

  • Grayhole attack, one of attack to MANET routing function, is very severe in point of view of causing results which disturbs normal transmission function of network with uneasy finding of attacks. In this paper, effects of grayhole attack to application service on MANET is analyzed. Based on this analysis, some conditions is suggested for anti-intrusion to operate an application service on MANET under grayhole attack. This study is done with computer simulation based on NS-2 be added grayhole attack function which is implemented in this paper.

  • As attack to routing function on MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network), hole attack make cause some critical effects. MANET is easily influenced with hole attack and can be critically effected on transmission performance, because it is configured with terminal device as temporary network and dose not have effective means for malicious attack. In this paper, effects of grayhole attack to network performance on MANTE is analyzed with computer simulation. Voice traffic is used in simulation, effects of grayhole attack is compaerd with blackhole attack. The method and result of this paper can be used for data to study grayhoke attack.

  • Sensor networks are deployed in unheeded environment to monitor the situation. In view of the unheeded environment and by the nature of their communication channel sensor nodes are vulnerable to various attacks most commonly malicious packet dropping attacks namely blackhole, grayhole attack and sinkhole attack. In each of these attacks, the attackers capture the sensor nodes to inject fake details, to deceive other sensor nodes and to interrupt the network traffic by packet dropping. In all such attacks, the compromised node advertises itself with fake routing facts to draw its neighbor traffic and to plunge the data packets. False routing advertisement play vital role in deceiving genuine node in network. In this paper, behavior based routing misbehavior detection (BRMD) is designed in wireless sensor networks to detect false advertiser node in the network. Herein the sensor nodes are monitored by its neighbor. The node which attracts more neighbor traffic by fake routing advertisement and involves the malicious activities such as packet dropping, selective packet dropping and tampering data are detected by its various behaviors and isolated from the network. To estimate the effectiveness of the proposed technique, Network Simulator 2.34 is used. In addition packet delivery ratio, throughput and end-to-end delay of BRMD are compared with other existing routing protocols and as a consequence it is shown that BRMD performs better. The outcome also demonstrates that BRMD yields lesser false positive (less than 6%) and false negative (less than 4%) encountered in various attack detection.

  • IDS can be used as a countermeasure for malicious attacks which cause degrade of network transmission performance by disturbing of MANET routing function. In this paper, effects of IDS for transmission performance on MANET under grayhole attacks which has intrusion objects for a part of transmissions packets, some suggestion for effective IDS will be considered. Computer simulation based on NS-2 is used for performance analysis, performance is measured with VoIP(: Voice over Internet Protocol) as an application service. MOS(: Mean Opinion Score), CCR(: Call Connection Rate) and end-to-end delay is used for performance parameter as standard transmission quality factor for voice transmission.
