Batch Rekeying in Mykil Key Management System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes support for batch rekeying in Mykil, a key management system for supporting secure group multicast. Batch rekeying in Mykil allows for substantial reductions in the cost and complexity of rekeying operations, arguably the expensive portion of the system. By accumulating join and leave operations and utilizing an algorithmic approach to minimize the number of necessary rekeying messages, Mykil can achieve a marked reduction in the total number and size of messages and can significantly streamline the system’s operation.

Mykil: a highly scalable key distribution protocol for large group multicast
This paper describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of Mykil, which is a new key distribution protocol for secure group multicast. Mykil has been designed to be scalable to large group sizes. It is based on a combination of group-based hierarchy and key-based hierarchy systems for group key management. Important advantages of Mykil include a fast rekeying operation for large group s...

متن کاملRecommendations in Using Group Key Management Algorithms
Scalable group key management (also known as group rekeying) schemes proposed in the literature can be classified into three categories: stateful schemes, stateless schemes and self-healing schemes. These schemes differ mainly on the interdependency of rekey messages and rekeying overhead. Logical key hierarchy (LKH) based approaches are stateful in that members should have received past rekeyi...

PREFACE vii Preface IP multicast is an efficient solution for group communication over the Internet, as both the sender resources and the network bandwidth are relieved with the aid of this emerging technology. However, this superiority suffers, when the group communication must fulfill some security requirements. An essential issue relates to sharing the communication key. Particularly, this k...
متن کاملModeling and analysis of intrusion detection integrated with batch rekeying for dynamic group communication systems in mobile ad hoc networks
We investigate performance characteristics of secure group communication systems (GCSs) in mobile ad hoc networks that employ intrusion detection techniques for dealing with insider attacks tightly coupled with rekeying techniques for dealing with outsider attacks. The objective is to identify optimal settings including the best intrusion detection interval and the best batch rekey interval und...
