An Empirical Survey on Data Security in Ad-hoc Networking Using Multipath Routing

These days ad-hoc network research has focused on supplying routing services without considering security. In this report, we are providing the information on security threats against ad hoc routing protocols. In light of these threats, we identify three different environments with distinct security requirements. We advise a solution to one; the managed-open scenario where no network substructure is pre-deployed, but prior security coordination is required. Development of hand-held features and mobile telephony makes Ad hoc networks widely adopted, but security remains a complicated issue. Recently, there are several proposed solutions treating authentication, availability, secure routing and intrusion detection etc, in Ad hoc networks. In this report we will analyze some securing data protocol in Ad hoc network. These solutions increase the robustness of transmitted data confidentiality by exploiting the existence of multiple paths between nodes in an Ad hoc network. This report also includes an overview of http://www.ijccr.com International Manuscript ID : ISSN2249054X-V3I3M9-052013 VOLUME 3 ISSUE 3 May 2013 current solutions and vulnerabilities and attacks in Ad hoc networks. Ad hoc wireless networks accept no pre-deployed infrastructure is available for routing packets end-to-end in a network, and instead rely on intermediary peers. Securing ad hoc routing presents challenges because each user brings to the network their own mobile unit, without the centralized policy or control of a traditional network. Many ad hoc routing protocols have been proposed
