Abstract. With the emergence of the IoT (Internet of Things) technology, security features must take into account the developments and possible uses. The blockchain is considered as a new technology devoted to data sharing, it allows to guarantee the integrity of data by IoT devices thanks to intelligent contracts allowing to verify and enforce the conditions of the monitored goods during their processing. In our work, we will address the security of Blockchain-based systems and networks to improve and simplify the communication of messages and informations, using the most innovative and sophisticated processes and a form of device independent control. In order to do so, we will analyse the solutions advanced by researchers from all over the world who are dedicated to guaranteeing a good state of security on these networks. Finally, our manuscript will present an approach to enhance security which is founded on the Blockchain principle and which we have entitled “MPR Blockchain”. This solution proves to be the most appropriate to our requirements and expectations as a team working within IoT systems and especially ad hoc networks. Keywords: Ad hoc networks

Introduction

It has become essential to show all members of the community on the need to preserve safe and personal sides; as long as there is a sensible environment, [3] advanced and improved information technologies and communications which can save time and deliver results faster. This leads us to remember the safety of the environment Digital intelligence and privacy within the planet, there is a change of confidence within the reliability of the online. The current research is oriented towards the phenomenon of the Internet of Things (IoT) associating both hard and soft aspects [12]. The mixture of the web and emerging technologies has identified the concept of digital environment. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept that establishes connections between several components within the Internet network and gathers all the data exchanged by different smart appliances using integrated systems, sensors, software and AI systems and isn’t surrounded on some devices or technologies but this concerns several objects of various types. c Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020  M.

Nowadays, the phenomenon of data and technology infrastructures and vast flows of data became essential in defining modern life. Each challenge represents an ample and discreet notion where know-how and leadership in welfare work are often focused on new bold ideas, scientific discoveries, and surprising innovations [13]. Within the coming years, IoT will link several intelligent devices. As a researchers, we work on improving the performance of ad hoc networks (MANETs, VANETs, FANETs, ...). Since ad hoc networks could integrate the new IoT technology, we’ll be ready to cash in of this sort of network to enhance ours. During t
