Abstract

Mobile ad hoc networks are used on different occasions, especially during crises. In risk and crisis management, communications is considered vital. With regard to their features, mobile ad hoc networks can be very helpful when dealing with a crisis such as flood, earthquake, war, etc. Security is nowadays considered as one of the main concerns in mobile ad hoc networks. And blac khole attack is among the most important threats of mobile ad hoc networks, where the malicious node places itself along the route by deceiving other nodes and then drops data packets. This paper attempted to investigate a number of proposed solutions against blac khole attacks.

Keywords
