Ahmed Sherif, Maha Mohamed Elsabrouty, Amin Shoukry · 2013
Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs) are characterized by the lack of infrastructure, dynamic topology, and their use of the open wireless medium. Black-hole attack represents a major threat for such type of networks. The purpose of this paper is two folds. First, to present an extensive survey of the known black-hole detection and prevention approaches. Another objective is to present new dimensions for their classification.
