A Novel Approach for Efficient Usage of Intrusion Detection

System in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

ABSTRACT:

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) are self-configuring, infrastructureless,

dynamic wireless networks in which the nodes are resource constrained. Intrusion
Detection Systems (IDS) are used in MANETs to monitor activities so as to detect
any intrusion in the otherwise vulnerable network. In this paper, we present
efficient schemes for analyzing and optimizing the time duration for which the
intrusion detection systems need to remain active in a mobile ad hoc network. A
probabilistic model is proposed that makes use of cooperation between IDSs
among neighborhood nodes to reduce their individual active time. Usually, an IDS
has to run all the time on every node to oversee the network behavior. This can
turn out to be a costly overhead for a battery-powered mobile device in terms of
power and computational resources. Hence, in this work our aim is to reduce the
duration of active time of the IDSs without compromising on their effectiveness.
To validate our proposed approach, we model the interactions between IDSs as a
multi-player cooperative game in which the players have partially cooperative and
partially conflicting goals. We theoretically analyze this game and support it with
simulation results.
EXISTING SYSTEM:

 The Existing protocol SLAM makes use of special nodes called guard nodes
for local monitoring in sensor networks. Usually the guard nodes remain in
sleep mode in the network.
 The protocol SLAM makes use of special nodes called guard nodes for local
monitoring in sensor networks. Usually the guard nodes remain in sleep
mode in the network. Before communicating on a link, a node awakens the
guard nodes responsible for local monitoring on its next hop.

DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM:

 When a large number of communication links are in use, almost all the
guard nodes in SLAM might be awake, which is also a downside of the
protocol.
 More energy consumption
 Less network lifetime
 High computational cost

PROPOSED SYSTEM:

 We present a novel technique, based on a probabilistic model, to

optimize the active time duration of intrusion detection systems (IDSs) in
 a MANET. The scheme reduces the IDSs’ active time as much as
possible without compromising on its effectiveness.
 To validate our proposed approach, we also present a multi-player
cooperative game that analyzes the effects of individual intrusion
detection systems with reduced activity on the network.
 Through simulation we show that a considerable saving in energy and
computational cost is achieved using our proposed technique of
optimizing the active time of the IDSs while maintaining the performance
of the IDS.
 The proposed scheme uses local information, thus making it distributed
and scalable. Moreover, it works on both static and mobile networks.

ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:

 Increase network lifetime

 Decrease energy consumption
 Low computational cost
