Detecting Black Hole Attack Using Support Vector Machine With Xgboosting In Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks, Anhar Al Madani, Saima Anwar Lashari, Sana Salah Uddin, Abdullah Khan, Muhammad Nouman Atta, Dzati Athiar Ramli

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANET) is a type of ad-hoc networks which use less infrastructure, that means the nodes in this network forward the massages without the need of infrastructure such as routers, switches etc. One of the most used attacks that can affect MANET performance is the black hole attack. This attack leads to dropping the packets that means these packets will never arrive and it will decrease the delivery ratio for the packets. This attack is a real problem as the sender is not informed that the data has not reached the intended receiver. The main goal of this …
