Defending Jellyfish Attack in Mobile Ad hoc Networks via Novel Fuzzy System Rule

Security in mobile ad hoc environment is the most concerned research issue which is focused in the proposed research methodology by introducing authenticated routing based attack injection and detection framework using genetic fuzzy rule based system (AR-AIDF-GFRS). This assures both the successful detections of attacks present in the environment and secured routing by using trusted nodes. Here, initially, jellyfish attack is injected into the MANET environment. This attack is detected by genetic fuzzy based rule system which would generate rules based on which attack would be identified. And then to ensure the secured routing, trust evaluation of nodes is done by ant colony based trust evaluation method (ACTEM). This method selects the optimal nodes which are trusted in nature for establishing the route path. The overall evaluation of the proposed research method is done in NS2 simulation environment which proves that AR-AIDF-GFRS can outperform the existing research method by accurately identifying attacker nodes.
