Provably secure and efficient certificateless authenticated tripartite key agreement protocol

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 ...

An efficient certificateless two-party authenticated key agreement protocol

Due to avoiding the key escrow problem in the identity-based cryptosystem, certificateless public key cryptosystem (CLPKC) has received a significant attention. As an important part of the CLPKC, the certificateless authenticated key agreement (CLAKA) protocol also received considerable attention. Most CLAKA protocols are built from bilinear mappings on elliptic curves which need costly operati...

Provably Efficient Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol for Multi-Servers

An efficient and practical authenticated key agreement protocol based on the line of geometry is proposed in this paper. It is a good solution to provide authentication and confidentiality. Identity authentication and message confidentiality are two important issues for the open network environment. In the proposed protocol, the authorized user can access multi-servers securely by keeping only ...

Simulatable certificateless two-party authenticated key agreement protocol

Key agreement (KA) allows two or more users to negotiate a secret session key among them over an open network. Authenticated key agreement (AKA) is a KA protocol enhanced to prevent active attacks. AKA can be achieved using a public key infrastructure (PKI) or identity-based cryptography. However, the former suffers from a heavy certificate management burden while the latter is subject to the s...
