On Efficient Key Agreement Protocols
نویسندگان
چکیده
A class of efficient key agreement protocols proposed by Boyd is examined. An attack is demonstrated on a round-optimal example protocol of this class, and a simple countermeasure is suggested. The whole class is known to be vulnerable to an attack proposed by Bauer, Berson and Feiertag. A new class of key agreement protocols without this vulnerability but having the same advantages in efficiency is identified, and a number of concrete protocols are proposed.

Provably secure and efficient identity-based key agreement protocol for independent PKGs using ECC
Key agreement protocols are essential for secure communications in open and distributed environments. Recently, identity-based key agreement protocols have been increasingly researched because of the simplicity of public key management. The basic idea behind an identity-based cryptosystem is that a public key is the identity (an arbitrary string) of a user, and the corresponding private key is ...
متن کاملEfficient key exchange protocols for wireless networks and mobile devices
In this paper, we design efficient authenticated key exchange protocols that take the special constraints of wireless networks and mobile devices, such as limitations in bandwidth, computational power, memory space and battery lifetime, into account. To accomplish the design goals, we show how a Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange can be securely integrated into a digital signature scheme (DSS) us...
متن کاملEfficient Key agreement protocol using Proxy server for Wireless communication
A key agreement protocol is the most important part to establish a secure cryptographic system and the effort to standardize the key agreement protocols is in rapid progress. Several efficient and secure key agreement protocols have been proposed so far since Diffie-Hellman proposed a public key agreement system in 1976. But, since Diffie-Hellman based key agreement protocols need a lot of comp...
متن کاملRound-Efficient Conference Key Agreement Protocols with Provable Security
A conference key protocol allows a group of participants to establish a secret communication (conference) key so that all their communications thereafter are protected by the key. In this paper we consider the distributed conference key (conference key agreement) protocol. We present two round-efficient conference key agreement protocols, which achieve the optimum in terms of the number of roun...
متن کاملA New Efficient Authenticated ID-Based Group Key Agreement Protocol
Group key agreement (GKA) protocols Play a main role in constructing secure multicast channels. These protocols are algorithms that describe how a group of parties communicating over a public network can gain a common secret key. ID-based authenticated group key agreement (AGKA) cryptosystems based on bilinear pairings are update researching subject because of the simplicity of their public key...
