Abstract

The requirement and the purpose of the IoT approach have developed substantially over the most recent few years. Here, IoT collects information from actual things, stores it, and then moves it to various organizations. Here, we use a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) using IoT. MANET is highly delicate to malware which includes passive and active for the organization. Additionally, this paper shows the security angle-based IoT model utilizing AI. The black hole attack is one among these attacks which drops the entire information traffic and corrupts the organization's execution. In this way, it requires the designing of the novel Adaptive Defense Reinforcement Mountaineering Team Search (ADR-MTS) algorithm that distinguishes and safeguards the organization from the blackhole attack node. The role of ADR-MTS calculation recognizes the source directing and the sum of nodes that are been accomplished by the routing mechanism. This routing method assists with upgrading the course between the both objective node and the source node. The simulation analysis that performs MATLAB shows the improvement with regards to Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR). To improve the system efficiency a similar examination is performed against the current methodologies and from the study, the ADR-MTS calculation gives gainful outcomes concerning the location of black holes in the MANET-based IoT organizations The ADR-MTS method achieved a PDR of 98.7% and scalability of 98.5% and these results demonstrate the efficiency of the ADR-MTS method in comparison to existing methods.
