Defending against wormhole attack in OLSR
Geo-Spatial Information Science, 2006 OLSR (optimal link state routing) is one of the four basic routing protocols used in mobile ad hoc Networks by the MANET working group of IETF (Internet engineering task force). OLSR, a proactive routing protocol, is based on a multipoint relaying flooding technique to reduce the number of topology broadcast.

A Secure Localization Approach against Wormhole Attacks Using Distance Consistency
EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2010 Wormhole attacks can negatively affect the localization in wireless sensor networks. A typical wormhole attack can be launched by two colluding attackers, one of which sniffs packets at one point in the network and tunnels them through a wired or ...
