Ad-hoc networks: new detection and prevention approach to malicious attacks using Honeypot

The traditional security system fails when a novel attack comes into the system. For efficient detection and prevention of malware threats and intrusion prevention framework, which will invigilate entire network activity, known attack identification and performance analysis can be made through it. After identification, it will send information to the concern of administrative authority. Honeypot can be designed as an intrusion detection system. In an ad-hoc network, this Honeypot technology can be used to collect malicious traffic activities. Our strategy is to track and avoid disseminating harmful activities in an ad hoc network utilising Honeypot technologies. Copyright © 2023 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
