The invention provides a
wireless ad hoc network routing protocol security method and
system for an unmanned cluster, and the method comprises the steps: a sender node in a
wireless ad hoc network determines a trust
anchor point message in a routing message based on a working mechanism of a
routing protocol in the
wireless ad hoc network in combination with a communication overhead and trust origin principle; and the sender node performs security field extension on the header of the trust
anchor point message by using a Hash
algorithm and an HMAC
verification method, constructs an enhanced routing message, and broadcasts the enhanced routing message to the
wireless ad hoc network, according to the method, a key routing
message structure is screened out through a working mechanism of a
routing protocol to serve as a trust
anchor point message, and only the head of the trust anchor point message is filled with double security expansion of a Hash
algorithm and HMAC. The routing information source is authenticated with the lowest communication and calculation overhead, the
attack of external malicious nodes is effectively resisted, and the communication security is ensured.
