The MANETs are a kind of Ad Hoc network and is used for mobile communication. The ad hoc mobile Networks (MANETS) are used when the user moves. MANET does not depend on established infrastructure. MANETs use wireless networks to connect to different networks. The self-configuring capability in MANET is absolutely critical to key mission applications such as military use or disaster recovery. The mobility and scalability offered by wireless network have made it possible in many applications. Surrounded by the latest mobile networks, Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is one of the most popular significant and exclusive applications. There is an increasing threat of attacks on the MANET because of vulnerabilities of wireless links, periodic nature of connectivity, changing topology etc. Security is the main concern in the MANET. As a result of the dynamic infrastructure less nature and decentralized networks, wireless Ad-hoc networks are unprotected and vulnerable to the attack. This paper focuses on the study of the black hole attack. In this paper detection and prevention techniques of black hole attack are implemented in MANET routing protocol namely AODV as reactive routing protocol. Black hole attack is one of the security hazard in which the traffic is redirected to malicious node that actually does not exist in the network. My literature survey is to understand different attacks on MANET like Black hole attack, Wormhole attack, Grey hole attack, Flooding attack, Denial of Service (DOS) etc. And Study the related work in MANET security. From that I have to implement efficient detection technique for Black hole attack.
