Prevention of Attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Network using African Buffalo Monitoring Zone Protocol

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) can be utilized for communicating wirelessly. However, MANET is affected by many attacks and malicious activities. In MANET, the prevention approach is necessary to secure communication. MANET is easily affected by numerous attacks such as wormhole (WH) attack, Grey-hole (GH) attack, and black-hole (BH) attack in which the sender hubs can’t able to transmits the message to the target node due to the malicious behavior. To prevent the attacks in MANET, this research introduces a novel routing protocol as African Buffalo Monitoring Zone Protocol (ABMZP). This approach is utilized for preventing wormhole attack and other malicious activities in MANET. This mechanism monitors the communication channel continuously and identifies the attack detection. Sequentially, the ABMZP approach prevents the harmful nodes and finds the alternate path for communication. The simulation of this research is done with the use of Network Simulator 2 (NS-2) and finally, the efficiency of the projected ABMZP work outcomes are compared with the latest existing techniques and provides superior results.
