Abstract: Mobile ad hoc networks used for processing, storage and wireless communication capabilities of mobile devices to create unstructured and low-cost self-configuring networks. Black Hole Attacks are serious problems to establish a communication in MANETs. In this research, we present CCLAM, a new proposed approach using new classic clustering formatted graphs to identify the nodes who are trying to create a black hole. We use well-established architecture to gain information about the network topology, keep eyes on all ordinary nodes and master nodes and maintain database to update all kind of information which use to perform original checks of the routing information generated by the nodes in the network. We assume there is a node in the network generating fake and wrong routing information as malicious node. Therefore, we blow an flag and alarm if the verification check fails. Furthermore, we present promising first simulation results with the new architecture, it is possible to detect the attempt of creating a black hole before the actual attack occurs and prevent the network from malicious attack.
