TL;DR: A novel spam-filtering technique based solely on the information present in headers is introduced, achieving up to 98.42% of spam detection while keeping the false positive rate below 0.4% and with the added advantages of using only information from the headers and being independent of the language in which the e-mail is written.

TL;DR: A novel IDS approach for detecting malicious packet dropping behaviors in MANETs by means of a heuristic which considers the operation of the forwarding process at the nodes, which results in a significant improvement in the detection performance of the system.
Abstract: This paper introduces a novel IDS approach for detecting malicious packet dropping behaviors in MANETs. Although some similar proposals can be found in the specialized literature, two main differences exist with ours. First, mobility aspects are explicitly considered into the approach by means of a heuristic which considers the operation of the forwarding process at the nodes. Second, this fact results in a significant improvement in the detection performance of the system, especially in terms of low false positive rate. The different experimental results obtained show the promising nature of our approach, both in terms of the detection capabilities exhibited and from the point of view of the simplicity of the scheme.
