Secure Network Management Using a Key Distribution Center
نویسندگان
چکیده
The proliferation and growth of modern computer networks have made network management infrastructures an integral part of the administration process. Nevertheless, most of these do not have the notion of security assimilated by design. Thus, existing network equipment cannot be managed securely without additional hardware or software security modules. This paper discusses a simple, yet robust, solution for securing an existing management infrastructure based on the SNMP protocol.

Random Key Distribution (RKD) schemes have been widely accepted to enable low-cost secure communications in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, efficiency of secure link establishment comes with the risk of compromised communications between benign nodes by adversaries who physically capture sensor nodes. The challenge is to enhance resilience of WSN against node capture, while maintainin...

متن کاملOn Unconditionally Secure Robust Distributed Key Distribution Centers
A Key Distribution Center enables secure communications among groups of users in a network by providing common keys that can be used with a symmetric encryption algorithm to encrypt and decrypt messages the users wish to send to each other. A Distributed Key Distribution Center is a set of servers of a network that jointly realize a Key Distribution Center. In this paper we propose an unconditi...
