ABSTRACT: Mobile Ad-hoc Networks or MANETs are largely found in things wherever any fixed facilities are simply not obtainable. MANET provides some basic responsibilities like routing, packet forwarding communication and network management etc. over self-structured network. This specially affects the energy, bandwidth and memory computation necessities. Providing trust in MANET is a further vital task because of lack of centralized infrastructure. Since throughout the deployment of but due to various types of intrusion threats and attacks it is hard to completely scrutinize any new node so as to allow only safe nodes to get connected with the prevailing safe system. The various attacks are discussed. KEYWORDS:MANET, Security Attacks 1. INTRODUCTION: We are moving from the old-style wired infrastructures to wireless communications. Wireless networks encompass variety of nodes that connect with one another over a wireless channel. Now-a-days in wireless devices, Mobile Ad-hoc Network become a very important half for communication for mobile devices. Self-configuring, freelance and decentralized while not having fastened hard and fast set infrastructure this of Network is thought as Mobile accidental Network. Mobile means the moving and accidental means that temporary with none fastened infrastructure so mobile accidental networks are a form of temporary networks during which nodes are moving with none fixed infrastructure. These networks don't have any fastened access points whereas each node may well be host or router. All nodes are capable of movement and might be connected dynamically in original manner. 1.1 CHARACTERISTICOF MANET: 1.MANET is capable of mult ihop routing. 2.Nodes will be part of or leave the network any time, it build configuration dynamic in nature. 3.InMANET,mobile nodes area unit characterized with less cash, power and light weight feature. 4.It has high density quality for variety of users. 5.It has strong and low price network. 2.SECURITY ATTACKS IN MANETS: 1. Passive attacks: A passive attack does not alter the information transferred in the network. But it includes the illegal “listening” to the network traffic or collects data from it. 2. Active Attacks: Active attacks are very simple attacks on the system that stop message movement between the nodes. These attacks produce illegal access to network that helps the attacker to make modifications such as alteration of packets, DOS, crowding etc. 3.Dropping Attacks: Cooperated nodes or selfish nodes can drop all packets that are not designed for them. 4.Modification Attacks: These attacks alter packets and disturb the whole message between system nodes. Sinkhole attacks are the example of alteration attacks. 2.1ATTACKS AT PHYSICAL LAYER:

1. Eavesdropping: Eaves dropping may be outlined as interception and reading of messages and conversations by

careless receivers. The most aim of such attacks is to get the direction that must near be complete secret throughout the communication. The data might hold non-public key, public key, location or passwords of the nodes.
