| Summary: | One of the main security issues in mobile ad hoc networks
(MANETs) is a malicious node that can falsify a route
advertisement, overwhelm traffic without forwarding it, help to
forward corrupted data and inject false or uncompleted
information, and many other security problems. Mapping immune
system mechanisms to networking security is the main objective
of this paper which may significantly contribute in securing
MANETs. In a step for providing secured and reliable broadband
services, formal specification logic along with a novel immuneinspired
security framework (I2MANETs) are introduced. The
different immune components are synchronized with the
framework through an agent that has the ability to replicate,
monitor, detect, classify, and block/isolate the corrupted packets
and/or nodes in a federated domain. The framework functions as
the Human Immune System in first response, second response,
adaptability, distributability, and survivability and other immune
features and properties. Interoperability with different routing
protocols is considered. The framework has been implemented in
a real environment. Desired and achieved results are presented. |
