Abstract

The black hole attack is one of the well-known security threats in wireless mobile ad hoc networks. The intruders utilize the loophole to carry out their malicious behaviours because the route discovery process is necessary and inevitable. An assortment of attacks is there to mischief the dexterous working of MANET. One of these attacks is the Black Hole attack which leads to dropping of messages. Attacking node leading agrees to forward packets and then not succeeded to do so. Black Hole attack may take place due to a malicious node which is consciously misbehaving as well as a smashed node interface. In any case, nodes in the network will continuously trying to find a route for the destination, which makes the node consume its battery in addition to losing packets. In this paper we analyse Black Hole attack in MANETs using AODV and OLSR which are reactive and proactive respectively in nature.
