A novel Group Key Transfer Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
Group key transfer protocols depend on a mutually trusted key generation center (KGC) to transport the group key to all group members secretly. This approach requires that a trusted sever be set up, and it incurs communication overhead costs. In addition, the existing group key transfer protocols based on secret sharing all use threshold schemes that need to compute a -degree interpolating polynomial to encrypt and decrypt the secret group key, then it increases the computational complexity of system. In this paper, we first present a novel group key transfer protocol without an online KGC, which is based on DH key agreement and a perfect linear secret sharing scheme (LSSS). The confidentiality of the group key transfer phase of this protocol is information theoretically secure, which is ensured by this LSSS. Furthermore, this protocol can resist potential attacks and also reduce the overhead of system implementation. Goals and security threats of our proposed group key transfer protocol will be analyzed in detail. t

Security and Improvement of an Authenticated Group Key Transfer Protocol Based on Secret Sharing
Recently Harn and Lin proposed a novel authenticated group key transfer protocol that a mutually trusted key generation center (KGC) can broadcast group key information to all group members at once and only authorized group members can recover the group key. This paper presents that Harn and Lin’s protocol can not withstand man-in-the-middle attack and describes the reasons and detailed process...

Two parties that conduct a business transaction through the internet do not see each other personally nor do they exchange any document neither any money hand-to-hand currency. Electronic payment is a way by which the two parties transfer the money through the internet. Therefore integrity of payment and order information of online purchase is an important concern. With online purchase the cust...
متن کاملSecure Key Transfer Protocol Based on Secret Sharing for Group Communications
Group key establishment is an important mechanism to construct a common session key for group communications. Conventional group key establishment protocols use an on-line trusted key generation center (KGC) to transfer the group key for each participant in each session. However, this approach requires that a trusted server be set up, and it incurs communication overhead costs. In this article,...
متن کاملOn the Security of an Authenticated Group Key Transfer Protocol Based on Secret Sharing
Group key transfer protocols allow multiple parties to share a common secret key. They rely on a mutually trusted key generation center (KGC) that selects the key and securely distributes it to the authorized participants. Recently, Sun et al. proposed an authenticated group key transfer protocol based on secret sharing that they claim to be secure. We show that this is false: the protocol is s...
متن کاملSecure Sharing Based on Group Key Transfer Protocol for Group Communications
Key transfer protocols needs key generation center (KGC) to select and transport session keys to all communication entities secretly, that are mutually trusted. Often, during registration each entity shares a session keys that are encrypted under another secret key by the KGC. In this paper based on secret sharing scheme, we propose an authenticated key transfer protocol that once KGC can broad...
