TLDR
A novel anonymous on-demand routing protocol, termed MASK, which can accomplish both MAC-layer and network-layer communications without disclosing real IDs of the participating nodes under a rather strong adversary model and is resistant to a wide range of attacks.Abstract:
The shared wireless medium of mobile ad hoc networks facilitates passive, adversarial eavesdropping on data communications whereby adversaries can launch various devastating attacks on the target network. To thwart passive eavesdropping and the resulting attacks, we propose a novel anonymous on-demand routing protocol, termed MASK, which can accomplish both MAC-layer and network-layer communications without disclosing real IDs of the participating nodes under a rather strong adversary model. MASK offers the anonymity of senders, receivers, and sender-receiver relationships in addition to node unlocatability and untrackability and end-to-end flow untraceability. It is also resistant to a wide range of attacks. Moreover, MASK preserves the high routing efficiency as compared to previous proposals. Detailed simulation studies have shown that MASK is highly effective and efficientread more

Securing Mobile Ad Hoc Networks with Certificateless Public Keys
TL;DR: IKM is a certificateless solution in that public keys of mobile nodes are directly derivable from their known IDs plus some common information, which eliminates the need for certificate-based authenticated public-key distribution indispensable in conventional public- key management schemes.

HOP: achieving efficient anonymity in MANETs by combining HIP, OLSR, and pseudonyms
TL;DR: This paper proposes and implements HOP, a novel solution based on cryptographic Host Identity Protocol (HIP) that offers security and user-level anonymity in MANET environments while maintaining good performance levels and introduces enhancements to the authentication process to achieve Host Identity Tag (HIT) relationship anonymity.

Dynamic Source Routing in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks.
David B. Johnson,David A. Maltz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a protocol for routing in ad hoc networks that uses dynamic source routing, which adapts quickly to routing changes when host movement is frequent, yet requires little or no overhead during periods in which hosts move less frequently.
