Attacks and Defenses Utilizing Cross-Layer Interactions in MANET

Abstract

Motivation: *Possibility of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks in the MAC layer *MAC and routing layers interact " Current protocols offer insufficient cross-layer interaction *Possible to cause an attack by manipulating traffic in the MAC layer and propagate attack to the routing layer *Need for additional interaction between MAC and routing: -MAC needs to pass information to routing in case of congestion -Routing decides on new routes that are not affected by congestion; -IDS makes sure the new routes don't contain malicious nodes *Goal: Detect the intrusion, minimizing detection time tD and the number of false alarms, while maximizing the probability of detection PD
