Fuzzy Based Integrated Security Model for Mobile Ad Hoc Network

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) which communicates with each other nodes without the basic network infrastructure, all the nodes act as autonomous nodes with self-organization and self-administration, leads to lack of security and selfishness among the nodes. This paper concentrates to provide fuzzy based integrated security model which incorporates Authentication key and Intrusion detection method through fuzzy approach. Authentication key provides effective information security and Intrusion detection provides the security towards the anonymous access. Combining both with fuzzy approach will provide a dual defense to the environment by providing security towards the anonymous access and information security together. The model is implemented by simulating various attacks through the ns/2 simulation and the result are compared with simulation of various authentication key distribution and intrusion detection models and the result shows that integrated security model provide high level of security compared to the stand alone Authentication key based security or Intrusion detection models
