Message security in multi-hop infrastructure-less networks such as Mobile Ad Hoc Networks has proven to still be a challenging task. A number of trust-based secure routing protocols have recently been introduced which comprise the traditional route discovery phase and a data transmission phase. In the later, the action of relaying the data from one mobile node to another relies on the peculiarity of the wireless transmission medium as well as the capability of source nodes to keep their energy level at an acceptable and reasonable level, posing another concern which is that of energy efficiency. This paper proposes an Energy-aware Trust Based Multi-path secured routing scheme (E-TBM) for MANETs, based on the dynamic routing protocol. Results show that our E-TBM scheme outperforms the Trust Based Multi-path (TBM) secured routing scheme - chosen as benchmark - in terms of energy consumption in the selected routing paths, and number of dead nodes, chosen as performance metrics.
