SECURITY ISSUES IN MOBILE AD-HOC NETWORKMukul A. Khairatkar

AGENDA

Introduction to MANET

Various Security Model

Operations

Introduction to IPSec

IPSec Operation

Simulation Details

Conclusion

MOBILE AD-HOC NETWORK

No Infrastructure No Server Nothing Everybody acts like a Router Security Problem

Network Resources Source Spoofing Eavesdropping Data Transformation

SECURITY

IPSEC

Why IPSec?

Open Standard Freely Available

Modular

Integrates in Existing IP structure

Transparent to application layer entities

For IPv6

SECURITY ARCHITECTURE

MODES

Transport Mode Payload Encrypted IP header is Intact Routing is Intact

Tunnel Mode New IP packet New Routing NW-NW Communication (tunnel)

IPSEC PACKET

NETWORK MODEL

IP TUNNEL

PERFORMANCE

FOR AD-HOC NETWORK

IPSEC FOR AD-HOC

IP Cloud

Subnet 1 Subnet 2

SECURITY

PROBLEMS

Latency Increases

Overhead Increases

Throughput Decreases

Complexity Increases

CONCLUSION

Ad-hoc Network uses various security

methods

Do not violate existing protocol

IPSec is a new approach to secure IPv4 and

IPv6 packets

Better approach can be used than IPSec
