Abstract

In this exploratory paper, we propose that intrusion detection and fault localization techniques in MANET environments (which are commonly separate systems) should work cooperatively. We argue that an integrated approach will exhibit improved accuracy, and also minimize system overheads and redundancy. Using detection of in-band wormhole attacks as an illustrative example, we outline how an integrated approach can better distinguish malicious network attacks from "normal" network delays and outages.
