Abstract

Privacy protection of mobile ad hoc networks is more demanding than that of wired networks due to the open nature and mobility of wireless media. Providing privacy protection with low-power wireless devices and low-bandwidth network connection is difficult task. Complete unlinkability and unobservability are not guaranteed due to incomplete content protection. Existing schemes can not protect all contents of packet from attackers so that the attacker can obtain information like packet type and sequence number etc. Most of the privacy perserving routing protocols contains anonymity and unlinkability. USOR is the first unobservable routing protocol. This protocol doesn‘t prevents wormhole attacks and denial of service attack. So the modified system use a protocol which is to be prevent against wormhole attack. An efficient authentication protocol TIK is to be used with the help of temporal leashes. This protocol supports the symmetric key cryptosystems. It removes out all attackers and complete protection of packet occurs through the protocol.
