Abstract :
Ad hoc routing protocols are challenging to design and the need for security services further complicates the situation. So far the proposals for routing in ad hoc networks offer no security mechanisms at all, or have only partial solutions for protecting the routing. In this paper, we present a scheme for providing security services for routing of control messages in an ad hoc network. Our focus is on on-demand routing protocols for ad hoc networks, specifically the dynamic source routing protocol
