Our Work. In this paper, we propose a novel Authenticated, Fault-tolerant Tree-based ▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ key agreement protocol, AFTD, based on two key ideas. First, as explained in Section 3, it is gross overkill to broadcast updated public keys to all group members for recomputing the group key when a node ni joins or leaves. It suffices to send each update to a much smaller subset of nodes in the tree, called its trust set TS(ni). Second, we achieve robust key authentication by distributing the function of trusted authority among the nodes in TS(ni), using a threshold cryptographic scheme. Any k members of a node’s trust set can serve as its public key certificate authority. Our performance analysis shows this scheme can reduces the communication overhead from O(n2) to O(n log n) for initialization, and from O(n log n) to O(n) for rekeying. It also reduces the storage requirement for blinded keys from O(n) to O(log n). This feature is particularly useful when a broadcast channel is unavailable.‌ The rest of this paper is organized as follows. We survey related work in Section 2. Section 3 motivates our work and defines our intrusion model. We present our solution in Section 4 and demonstrate performance analysis and comparison in Section 5. Finally we make a conclusion in Section 6.

Our Work a. The work provided by us or any other Network Firm in connection with the Services (the “Work”) is for your exclusive use and must be used by you only for the purposes described in the Letter (the “Purpose”). Unless we give our consent: i. the Work must not be used for any purpose other than the Purpose or made available to anyone else, except your appropriate employees, agents and professional advisers, and such parties shall not use our Work other than to advance the Purpose, a violation of which you shall be responsible for; ii. the Work may not be relied on by anyone other than you; and iii. you must not name us or any other Network Firm or refer to us or any other Network Firm, the Work or the Services in any written material, other than to your employees, agents or Professional Advisers, in any publicly filed documents or as required by law. b. If you provide a copy of any Work to any of your employees, agents or professional advisers, or any other person as permitted in the applicable Agreement or otherwise with the applicable Network Firm’s written consent, you must ensure that each such party is aware of and comply with the limits placed on the use and disclosure of the Work (including that such party may not rely on the Work) and treat the Work as confidential as provided in the applicable Agreement or any applicable non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement. c. You acknowledge that use of or reliance on the Work by a person other than you may expose us or any other applicable Network Firm, and us or their respective Representatives claim from persons with whom we have no relationship or whose interests have not been considered in providing the Services. You will indemnify us and the other applicable Network Firm, our and such Network Firm’s respective Representatives against any losses, liabilities, claims, compensation, penalties, fines, damages, costs or expenses (including internal time costs, interest and taxes where applicable), however caused (whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise) (each a “Loss”) we, any applicable Network Firm or our or such Network Firm’s respective Representatives may suffer or incur as a result of any distribution to, use of and/or reliance on, any Work by a third party. d. To the extent that, in connection with our Agreement with you, either party (each, the “Receiving Party”) comes into possession of any trade secrets or other proprietary or confidential information of the other (the “Dis...

Our Work. In this paper, we propose a scalable, efficient, authen- ticated group key agreement scheme for multicast. Our scheme makes use of the bilinear pairings over the elliptic curves [4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 18, 19, 22, 24] and is inspired on the work of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ [26]. Our scheme has advantages over the exiting schemes proposed for secure multicast. First, compared with the previously published tree-based schemes [20, 21, 29, 31, 33, 34], our scheme achieves group member authentication without imposing extra mechanism. Since we use an identity tree instead of key tree in our scheme. Each node in the identity tree is associated with an identity. The leaf node’s identity is corresponding to the user’s identity and the intermedi- ate node’s identity is generated by its children’s identity. Hence, in an identity tree, an intermediate node repre- sents a set users in the subtree rooted at this node. Next, our scheme solves the scalability problem in mul- ticast systems. Since we divide the large communication group into several smaller subgroups. Each subgroup is independently maintained by the subgroup controller

Our Work. The focus of this research was to design a DTM that addressed the third and fourth criteria for robust IDCSs and could be seamlessly integrated with the existing architecture of S.
