Abstract: Wireless Ad hoc Network offers a cost effective communication to the users free from any infrastructural dependencies. It is characterized by decentralized architecture, mobile nodes, dynamic topology, etc. that makes the network formation typically challenging. In the past decade, there has been a series of research work towards enhancing its routing performance by addressing various significant problems. This manuscript mainly orients around the progress being made in the line of secure routing protocol, which is still a bigger issue. The paper discusses different approaches undertaken by existing literature towards discrete security problem and explores the effective level of security. The study outcome of the paper finds that progress towards wireless ad hoc network is still very less and there is a need to come up with robust security framework. The paper also discusses the research gap being identified from the existing techniques and finally discusses the future work direction to address the certain unsolved problem.
