Different Types of Attacks on Integrated MANET-Internet Communication

Security is an important issue in the integrated MANET-Internet environment because inthis environment we have to consider the attacks on Internet connectivity and also onthe ad hoc routing protocols. The focus of this work is on different types of attacks onintegrated MANET-Internet communication. We consider most common types of attackson mobile ad hoc networks and on access point through which MANET is connected tothe Internet. Specifically, we study how different attacks affect the performance of thenetwork and find out the security issues which have not solved until now. The resultsenable us to minimize the attacks on integrated MANET-Internet communicationefficiently.
