Abstract. This paper presents a protocol called SAKE (Software Attestation for Key Establishment), for establishing a shared key between any two neighboring nodes of a sensor netwo...
Secure communication over wireless channels necessitates authentication of communication partners to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. For spontaneous interaction between independ...
It has been said that quantum cryptography in general o ers a secure solution to the problem of key enhancement. This means that two parties who already share a small secret key, ...
We present an efficient authenticated and fault-tolerant protocol (AFTD) for tree-based key agreement. Our approach is driven by the insight that when a Diffie-Hellman blinded key ...
Abstract. A group key agreement protocol allows a set of users, communicating over a public network, to agree on a private session key. Most of the schemes proposed so far require ...
