Praveen Kumar Madala, G Nagappan . Power-Aware Hybrid Intrusion Detection in Wireless Adhoc Networks using Mobile Agents. International Journal of Computer Applications. 17, 6 ( March 2011), 6-11. DOI=10.5120/2227-2837
Power-aware hybrid intrusion detection in wireless ad hoc networks using mobile agents (PHIDS) describes design and implementation of an energy conscious anomaly based co operative intrusion detection system for wireless ad hoc networks based on mobile agent technology. This paper addresses the above stated issue by (1) Applying mobile agent technology to minimize network load, conserving bandwidth and to improve reactivity. (2)Minimize energy consumption of network monitoring nodes by using power metric node selection algorithm.(3) It integrates both host based and network based intrusion detection system. IBM’s Aglet is used as the base agent architecture to create mobile agents such as monitoring agent, decision-making agent and action agent. Host based intrusion detection system take care of local intrusion detection on each node. Network based intrusion detection system take care of cooperative intrusion detection at network level.
