Security Properties of Two Authenticated Conference Key Agreement Protocols
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we analyse the security of two authenticated group key agreement schemes based on the group key agreement protocol of Burmester and Desmedt. One scheme was proposed by Burmester and Desmedt, and uses a separate authentication scheme to achieve authentication among the participants. We show that this scheme suffers from a number of security vulnerabilities. The other scheme was generated using the general protocol compiler of Katz and Yung. We show that in some circumstances, even if key confirmation is implemented, this scheme still suffers from insider attacks (which are not covered by the security model used by Katz and Yung).

Comparative Study of Tripartite Identity-Based Authenticated Key Agreement Protocols
Key agreement protocols are used to exchange keys between two or multiple entities. The exchanged key can be later used to assure confidentiality through encryption. Additionally authenticated key agreement protocols offer implicit authentication. In this paper we conduct a security and efficiency comparison of tripartite authenticated identity-based key agreement protocols and review all of th...
متن کاملID-based tripartite Authenticated Key Agreement Protocols from pairings
This paper proposes ID-based tripartite authenticated key agreement protocols. The authenticated three party key agreement protocols from pairings [15], and the ID-based two party authenticated key agreement protocol [13] are studied. These two protocols are taken as the basis for designing three new ID-based tripartite authenticated key agreement protocols. The security properties of all these...
متن کاملAnalysis And Improvement of Pairing-Free Certificate-Less Two-Party Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol For Grid Computing
The predominant grid authentication mechanisms use public key infrastructure (PKI). Nonetheless, certificate-less public key cryptography (CL-PKC) has several advantages that seem to well align with the demands of grid computing. Security and efficiency are the main objectives of grid authentication protocols. Unfortunately, certificate-less authenticated key agreement protocols rely on the bil...
متن کاملCryptanalysis and improvement of two certificateless three-party authenticated key agreement protocols
Recently, two certificateless three-party authenticated key agreement protocols were proposed, and both protocols were claimed they can meet the desirable security properties including forward security, key compromise impersonation resistance and so on. Through cryptanalysis, we show that one neither meets forward security and key compromise impersonation resistance nor resists an attack by an ...
متن کاملTripartite Authenticated Key Agreement Protocols from Pairings
Joux’s protocol [29] is a one round, tripartite key agreement protocol that is more bandwidth-efficient than any previous three-party key agreement protocol. But it is insecure, suffering from a simple man-inthe-middle attack. This paper shows how to make Joux’s protocol secure, presenting several tripartite, authenticated key agreement protocols that still require only one round of communicati...
