Detection and Evaluation of Cybersecurity Threats in MANET Based on AI

This research focuses on the use of AI to enhance the security of Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs), which aredecentralized and mobile wireless networks characterized by their dynamic nature. The work aims to assess the risks associated with cyber activities and identify various sorts of cyber threats, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, malware invasions, data leaks and unauthorized access attempts. This will be achieved by using Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered algorithms and models. The objective is to enhance the accuracy in identifying and categorizing these threats, hence increasing the security and dependability of MANET networks. Anomaly detection is a supplementary protection mechanism that specifically targets the hardware and network traffic of MANETs. Implementing a monitoring strategy is necessary in order to detect any anomalous activity that might potentially indicate security vulnerabilities or attacks in the MANET setups. The primary objective is to identify and address the unique characteristics of timely detection, which may enhance the security capabilities of MANET against cyber attacks. Machine learning (ML) algorithms often demonstrate impressive performance in efficiently identifying and accurately classifying various cyber threats, including DDoS attacks, malware infiltrations, and attempted unauthorized access. This anomaly detection technology effectively identifies robot abnormalities and malicious actions in network data, while also proactively avoiding system vulnerabilities or threats. In addition, this research discovered very effective AI-based cybersecurity solutions for dynamic decentralized MANET systems. These systems were specifically designed for tasks such as street-view switching, route finding, self healing, and self configuration.
