An ad hoc network is a self-organizing network with help of Access Point (AP)\nof wireless links connecting nodes to another. The nodes can communicate\nwithout infrastructure network. They form an random topology (BSS/ESS), where\nthe nodes play the role of routers and are free to move arbitrarily. Ad hoc\nnetworks confirmed their efficiency being used in different fields but they are\nhighly vulnerable to security attacks and dealing with this is one of the main\nchallenges of these networks today. In recent times, a few solutions are\nproposed to provide authentication, confidentiality, availability, secure\nrouting and intrusion prevention in ad hoc networks. Employ security in such\ndynamically changing networks is a hard task. Ad hoc network uniqueness must be\ntaken into contemplation to be clever to design efficient clarification. Here\nwe spotlight on improving the flow transmission confidentiality in ad hoc\nnetworks based on unipath routing. Definitely, we take advantage of the being\nof multiple paths between nodes in an ad hoc network to increase the\nconfidentiality robustness of transmitted data with the help of Access Point.\nIn our approach the original message to secure is split into shares through\naccess point that are encrypted and combined then transmitted along different\ndisjointed existing paths between sender and receiver. Still if an attacker\nsucceeds to attain one or more transmitted contribute to the probability that\nthe unique message will be reconstituted is very low.\n
