Security of quantum key distribution against sophisticated attacks is among the most important issues in quantum information theory. In this work we prove security against a very ...

We explore the problem of secret-key distribution in unidirectional channels, those in which a sender transmits information blindly to a receiver. We consider two approaches: (1) ...
A self-healing key distributionscheme enables a group of users to establish a group key over an unreliable channel. In such a protocol, a group manager, to distributea session 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 ...
In an open network such as the Internet, multicast security services typically start with group session-key distribution. Considering scalability for group communication among wide...
