Abstract
Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET) is a wireless connection of self configuring, infrastructure-less network of mobile devices. MANETs can be exploited with several cyber attack methods, compromising the security of the nodes within the network. Sybil attack is one of the serious threats when it comes to Wireless networks. The Attacker can make a node illegitimately claim multiple identities with identity theft, misleading other nodes by showing wrong/duplicate ID. The attack is named after a case study of a woman diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder. In this project simulation we will implement the sybil attack on Mobile Ad hoc Network and study its effects.
