摘要：Internet based Mobile Ad hoc Networking (iMANET) is a growing scope of wireless technology that combines self-organizing mobile networking infrastructures. A large range of applications of this technology varies from commercial applications to military services. At each level, security is a major concern for the reliability of the network. Although several challenges are there with heterogeneous character of hybrid MANET but researchers always seek to develop more secure mechanism. Black hole attack is a kind of denial of service attack in which a node advertises itself as having a valid route to a destination node, even though the route is spurious, with the intention of intercepting packets. In this paper, first the notion of black hole is analyzed as the security threat to Ad hoc Networks and afterward, the concept is applied on a layer of iMANET as a proposal of security solution.
