Enhanced Anomaly Intrusion Detection System for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Kosmas Kapis, Samwel Magesa Bairi · Computer and Information Technology · 2018

The rapid proliferation of wireless networks and mobile computing applications has changed the landscape of network security. The wireless Ad Hoc network is particularly vulnerable due to its features of open medium, dynamic changing topology, cooperative algorithms, lack of centralized monitoring and management point, and lack of a clear line of defense. Many intrusion detection techniques have been developed but have a high memory usage. New architecture and mechanisms to decrease memory usage in wireless networks and mobile computing application have to be developed. This paper proposes an enhanced mechanism in which IDS for mobile devices can decrease memory usage and improve response time thus increasing life span of Ad Hoc devices. The proposed solution is achieved by studying AES and TEA algorithms, then come up with the most effective solution. The prototype is built by combining both separately AES and TEA algorithms and path.
