Importance of security in ad-hoc networks is increasing due to a tremendous boon in mobile equipment usage. Due to the characteristic of ad hoc network being decentralized, wireless and infrastructure-less makes it vulnerable to various attacks that cause disruption in the network. In order to provide possible security measures to handle the malicious activity in the network, security services are made sure to be implied. This paper includes a study of the required security goals to be achieved by the network and possible attacks that might result in alteration of network functionality.
