Security and Privacy in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Key management and anonymous secure routing in large ad hoc networks

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Compared to wired networks, mobile ad hoc networks
are much more vulnerable to security attacks. This
is mainly due to its features of open medium,
dynamic topology, cooperative algorithms, lack of
centralized monitoring and management point. In this
book, the author first reviews security and privacy
issues in mobile ad hoc networks, and then proposes
the study of algorithms and protocols for key
management and (anonymous) secure routing in large
ad hoc networks. More specifically, in terms of key
management, the author investigates scalable key
management protocols for large ad hoc networks by
exploiting hierarchical network structures and
cryptographical techniques. As to anonymous secure
routing, the author first formally defines a set of
requirements on privacy and security of an anonymous
secure routing protocol, and then presents a few
protocols that are designed to satisfy those
requirements.
