Abstract

This paper discusses Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs), which are self-organizing networks without infrastructure relying on wireless connections between mobile nodes. The open communication channels in MANETs make them vulnerable to attacks, compromise privacy, and reduce throughput. The paper aims to investigate the impact of wormhole attacks on MANETs, highlighting the significant security threat they pose to wireless networks despite the presence of authentication and confidentiality measures. This paper utilized ns-allinone-2.35-RC7 as a simulation environment to study the effects of introducing wormhole nodes into the network. The DSDV and TORA routing protocols were significantly impacted by wormhole attacks, leading to limited data transmission and a low packet delivery ratio. Conversely, the DSR protocol performed better, demonstrating higher average throughput, successful data transmission, and improved resistance against wormhole attacks.
