A simple yet </i><i>robust network layer security protocol has been proposed previously for Suburban Ad-Hoc Networks. It secures </i><i>network layer packets at each hop, and provides fully self-organised key and access control management </i><i>functionalities without relying on any centralised trusted entity. In this paper we extend the possible attack space </i><i>of SSP. Then we map the possible attacks into the canonical strategies of Information Warfare to evaluate the </i><i>effectiveness of SSP from the Information Warfare perspective.</i></p>
