Mitigating Colluding Injected and Duplication Key Attacks in Manet

In this chapter, two new attacks are introduced in MANETs. The CIA in Mobile Ad hoc networks (MANETs) has been successfully eliminated in Wireless Sensor networks, but in MANETs the legitimate node is also reported as a malicious node (Farah Kandah et al 2011). In CIA, an adversary utilizes a colluding attack in MANETs by injecting malicious nodes in the network and hiding their identities from other legitimate nodes. Thus, the entire network gets compromised, and the throughput drastically reduces.
