Abstract

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a local which necessitate more security. The term “ad hoc” refers to self-configuring nodes that do not have a central entity to govern them. Network security plays a decisive role in MANET and the traditional way of providing impedance to the networks through firewalls and encryption software is no longer effective and sufficient. In this paper, a quantitative method based on trust evaluation for detecting malicious nodes in the Mobile ad-hoc network and endowing an optimal path for packet transmission is proposed using Trust based Routing algorithm. The intended system is a behavior anomaly based system which crafts it dynamic, robust, scalable and configurable. The proposed method is verified by running simulations with mobile nodes using the
