Location privacy protection for secure multicasting in MANET

In Mobile Adhoc Networks, providing the security to the node locations is a challenging task. Signature Based Verification Technique is used to prevent identity-replication attacks. The nodes are rejected for duplicate registrations as time stamp included in the certificate. There is no security provided for the location information of the nodes. To overcome the challenges, we propose to develop a scheme using a private key cryptography in addition to symetric key encryption technique by which node adds its own location in private key and zone leaders maintains it proposed method out performs Anonymous Location-based Efficient Routing protocol.
