چکیده
Conventionally, mutual entity authentication is seen as the necessary precursor to the establishment of a secure connection. However, there exist examples of cases where authentication is not needed. The purpose of this paper is to consider this proposition, illustrated by case studies, and to use the findings of this investigation as input for the design of authentication protocols suitable for use in future Internet access environments supporting ubiquitous mobility.
