Intrusion Detection in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks: A Mobile Agent Approach

Abstract

In this paper we have presented design and implementation of a prototype for intrusion detection using mobile agents (MAs) in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). In this prototype each node runs intrusion detection system locally and equally cooperates with other intrusion detection systems running on other nodes. The proposed prototype is implemented and validated on PMADE (Platform for MA Distribution and Execution).
