摘要：Mobile Adhoc NETwork (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes which can communicate directly with other nodes within its transmission range and use multihop routing for nodes outside its transmission range. The inherent features of MANETs like dynamic topology, limited network resources (bandwidth, memory and battery power) and lack of centralized trusted authority makes it more vulnerable to attacks than wired networks. The security of MANETs has drawn much attention of researchers these days because existing routing protocols did not incorporate security mechanisms. This paper outlines various security issues related to MANETs, attacks that can be launched and defense mechanisms available against these attacks. The focus of this work is on encompassing complete security solution that involves both reactive and proactive mechanisms
