A New Approach For Source Authentication Of Multicast Data

Multicast Security is one of the important problems to solve for the successful deployment of group communication applications, and source authentication of multicast data is a key and difficult problem. To solve it, a new approach is afforded based on the basic tree hashing protocol. The performance evaluation shows there are less computation and communication overheads in it, so which is reasonable and applicable.
