A review on different Intrusion Detection Systems for MANET and its vulnerabilities

In recent years, Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) have become a very popular research topic. By providing communications in the absence of a fixed infrastructure MANET are an attractive technology for many applications such as resource app, military app, environmental monitoring and conferences. However, this flexibility introduces new security threats due to the vulnerable nature of MANET, there will be the necessity of protecting the data, information from the attackers as it is an infrastructure-less network. Thus, securing such demanding network is a big challenge. At this point, IDS came into existence to secure MANET in detecting at what point they are getting weak. In this review paper, we will discuss, MANET and its vulnerabilities, and how we can tackle it using different techniques of IDS (Intrusion Detection System).
