Abstract

A Mobile Ad hoc Network is a collection of independent mobile nodes that can communicate to each other via radio waves. The mobile nodes that are in radio range of each other can directly communicate, whereas others need the aid of intermediate nodes to route their packets. Each of the nodes has a wireless interface to communicate with each other. The security is a major issue and the chances of having the vulnerabilities are also more. In this paper we discuss various types of vulnerabilities, attacks and security goals in MANETs.
