Broadcast Group Key Management with Access Control Vectors

چکیده
Secure collaborative applications currently enabled by the Internet need flexible and efficient mechanisms for managing and distributing group keys. The secure transmission of information among collaborating users should be efficient as well as flexible in order to support access control models with different granularity levels for different kinds of applications such as secure group communication, secure dynamic conferencing, and selective/hierarchical access control disseminated information. In this paper, we propose the first provably secure broadcast Group Key Management (BGKM) scheme where each user in a group shares a secret with the trusted key server and the subsequent rekeying for join or departure of users requires only one broadcast message. Our scheme satisfies all the requirements laid down for an effective GKM scheme and requires no change to secret shares existing users possess. We analyze the security of our BGKM scheme and compare it with the existing BGKM schemes which are

An Overview of Group Key Management Issues in IEEE 802.16e Networks
The computer industry has defined the IEEE 802.16 family of standards that will enable mobile devices to access a broadband network as an alternative to digital subscriber line technology. As the mobile devices join and leave a network, security measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the network against unauthorized usage by encryption and group key management. IEEE 802.16e uses Multica...

An efficient fine-grained encryption-based access control scheme for documents stored in the public cloud network proposed by Mohamed et al utilizes more computational and storage complexities. Although, Mohamed et al.'s broadcast key management scheme communicates group key securely, it consumes massive computational and storage resources for frequently changing the group key. In order to avoi...
متن کاملAn Efficient Key Management Scheme for Secure Data Access Control in Wireless Broadcast Services
Wireless broadcast is an effective approach to disseminate data to a number of users. To provide secure access to data in wireless broadcast services, symmetric key based encryption is used to ensure that only users who own the valid keys can decrypt the data. Regarding various subscriptions, an efficient key management to distribute and change keys is in great demand for access control in broa...

Due to wireless nature and hostile environment, providing of security is a critical and vital task in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). It is known that key management is an integral part of a secure network. Unfortunately, in most of the previous methods, security is compromised in favor of reducing energy consumption. Consequently, they lack perfect resilience and are not fit for applications ...
