IDSs based on Stand-alone Architecture for MANET: A Survey
Kapil Dhamecha, Rutvik Upadhyay, Bhushan H Trivedi · International Journal of Applied Information Systems · 2012
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are susceptible to a variety of attacks that threaten their operation and the provided services.Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) may act as defensive mechanisms, since they monitor network activities in order to detect malicious actions performed by intruders, and then initiate the appropriate countermeasures.IDSs for MANETs have attracted much attention recently and thus, there are many publications that propose new IDS solutions or improvements to the existing.Current IDSs pose challenges on not only capricious intrusion categories, but also huge computational power.Though there are a number of existing literatures to IDS issues, an attempt is made to give a more elaborate image for a comprehensive review on IDSs based on stand-alone architecture for MANETs, because of the uniqueness to identify the attack solely.In addition, the table and the figure summarized in the content contribute to easily grasp the overall picture of stand-alone IDSs along with existing open issues.
