Although 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 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 excellent detection capabilities exhibited and from the point of view of the simplicity of the scheme.", booktitle = "12th Reuni{\'o}n Espa{\~n}ola sobre Criptolog{\'i}a y Seguridad de la Informaci{\'o}n (RECSI 2012)", keywords = "mobile ad hoc networks, packet dropping, malicious behavior, false positive, mobility", month = "Septiembre", pages = "57-62", title = "{M}ulti-{L}ayer {I}nformation for {D}etecting {M}alicious {P}acket {D}ropping {B}ehaviors in {MANET}s", year = "2012", }
