Authenticated session key establishment is a central issue in network security. This paper addresses a question on whether we can design a compact, efficient and authenticated key ...
A group key agreement (GKA) protocol allows a set of users to establish a common secret via open networks. Observing that a major goal of GKAs for most applications is to establish...

This paper presents a new identity based key agreement protocol. In id-based cryptography (introduced by Adi Shamir in [33]) each party uses its own identity as public key and rece...
A Zero-knowledge protocol provides provably secure entity authentication based on a hard computational problem. Among many schemes proposed since 1984, the most practical rely on f...
Recently, the Network-Attached Secure Disk (NASD) model has become a more widely used technique for constructing large-scale storage systems. However, the security system proposed...
