A scalable multicast key management scheme for heterogeneous wireless networks

Secure multicast applications require key management that provides access control. In wireless networks, where the error rate is high and the bandwidth is limited, the design of key management schemes should place emphasis on reducing the communication burden associated with key updating. A communication-efficient class of key management schemes is those that employ a tree hierarchy. However, these tree-based key management schemes do not exploit issues related to the delivery of keying information that provide opportunities to further reduce the communication burden of rekeying. In this paper, we propose a method for designing multicast key management trees that match the network topology. The proposed key management scheme localizes the transmission of keying information and significantly reduces the communication burden of rekeying. Further, in mobile wireless applications, the issue of user handoff between base stations may cause user relocation on the key management tree. We address the problem of user handoff by proposing an efficient handoff scheme for our topology-matching key management trees. The proposed scheme also addresses the heterogeneity of the network. For multicast applications containing several thousands of users, simulations indicate a 55%-80% reduction in the communication cost compared to key trees that are independent of the network topology. Analysis and simulations also show that the communication cost of the proposed topology-matching key management tree scales better than topology-independent trees as the size of multicast group grows.     

Topological Key Hierarchy for Energy-Efficient Group Key Management in Wireless Sensor Networks

A sensor network operating in open environments requires a network-wide group key for confidentiality of exchanged messages between sensor nodes. When a node behaves abnormally due to its malfunction or a compromise attack by adversaries, the central sink node should update the group key of other nodes. The major concern of this group key update procedure will be the multi-hop communication overheads of the rekeying messages due to the energy constraints of sensor nodes. Many researchers have tried to reduce the number of rekeying messages by using the logical key tree. In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient group key management scheme called Topological Key Hierarchy (TKH). TKH generates a key tree by using the underlying sensor network topology with consideration of subtree-based key tree separation and wireless multicast advantage. Based on our detailed analysis and simulation study, we compare the total rekeying costs of our scheme with the previous logical key tree schemes and demonstrate its energy efficiency.

An efficient heterogeneous key management approach for secure multicast communications in ad hoc networks

In a mobile wireless ad hoc network, mobile nodes cooperate to form a network without using any infrastructure such as access points or base stations. Instead, the mobile nodes forward packets for each other, allowing communication among nodes outside wireless transmission range. As the use of wireless networks increases, security in this domain becomes a very real concern. One fundamental aspect of providing confidentiality and authentication is key distribution. While public-key encryption has provided these properties historically, ad hoc networks are resource constrained and benefit from symmetric key encryption. In this paper, we propose a new key management mechanism to support secure group multicast communications in ad hoc networks. The scheme proposes a dynamic construction of hierarchical clusters based on a novel density function adapted to frequent topology changes. The presented mechanism ensures a fast and efficient key management with respect to the sequential 1 to n multicast service.     

Hexagonal Clustered Trust Based Distributed Group Key Agreement Scheme in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Secure and efficient group communication among mobile nodes is one of the significant aspects in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The group key management (GKM) is a well established cryptographic technique to authorise and to maintain group key in a multicast communication, through secured channels. In a secure group communication, a one-time session key is required to be shared between the participants by using distributed group key agreement (GKA) schemes. Due to the resource constraints of ad hoc networks, the security protocols should be communication efficient with less overhead as possible. The GKM solutions from various researches lacks in considering the mobility features of ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose a hexagonal clustered one round distributed group key agreement scheme with trust (HT-DGKA) in a public key infrastructure based MANET environment. The proposed HT-DGKA scheme guarantees an access control with key authentication and secrecy. The performance of HT-DGKA is evaluated by simulation analysis in terms of key agreement time and overhead for different number of nodes. Simulation results reveal that the proposed scheme guarantees better performance to secure mobile ad hoc network. It is demonstrated that the proposed scheme possesses a maximum of 2250 ms of key agreement time for the higher node velocity of 25 m/s and lower key agreement overhead. Also, the HT-DGKA scheme outperforms the existing schemes in terms of successful message rate, packet delivery ratio, level of security, computation complexity, number of round, number of exponentiations and number of message sent and received that contribute to the network performance.

     

A novel self‐healing key distribution scheme based on vector space access structure and MDS codes

Self‐healing group key distribution protocols are useful in applications that have a dynamic group structure. These include broadcast transmission systems and multicast networks such as pay‐per‐view television, embedded and sensor networks, and cellular and wireless networks. To cater to the requirements of these applications, several self‐healing group key distribution protocols are proposed in the literature. Many of these schemes are vulnerable to polynomial factorization or insider replay attacks. Some other schemes impose constraints on the users joining the group or revoked from the group. Motivated by these and other shortcomings of the existing schemes, we hereby propose a novel self‐healing group key distribution protocol. Some of the features of this scheme include that (a) the number and the set of revoked users is not constrained, (b) the communication group can consist of any set of users, and (c) a revoked user is allowed to rejoin the group in any of the later sessions. The scheme is analyzed for its security, and it is found to provide anywise forward and backward secrecy. It is also found to resist anywise collusion attack. Communication and computation complexity of the scheme is analyzed; while doing so, various possible realizations of the scheme is discussed. In addition to the theoretical analysis, the proposed scheme is experimentally verified for its correctness using OMNET++ network simulator.     

Key Management in Secure Satellite Multicast Using Key Hypergraphs

Satellite networks play an important role in today’s information age because they can provide the global coverage services. Information security is an important concern in satellite multicast communications, where eavesdropping can be performed much easier than the fixed terrestrial networks. In this work, a novel multicast key management scheme based on key hypergraph for satellite networks on a predefined communication scenario is proposed. We use logical key hierarchy and distributed-logical key hierarchy as reference models for performance comparisons. It is shown that the proposed multicast key management scheme is scalable to large dynamic groups and minimizes satellite bandwidth usage.

LNT: A logical neighbor tree secure group communication scheme for wireless sensor networks

Secure group communication is a paradigm that primarily designates one-to-many communication security. The proposed works relevant to secure group communication have predominantly considered the whole network as being a single group managed by a central powerful node capable of supporting heavy communication, computation and storage cost. However, a typical Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) may contain several groups, and each one is maintained by a sensor node (the group controller) with constrained resources. Moreover, the previously proposed schemes require a multicast routing support to deliver the rekeying messages. Nevertheless, multicast routing can incur heavy storage and communication overheads in the case of a wireless sensor network. Due to these two major limitations, we have reckoned it necessary to propose a new secure group communication with a lightweight rekeying process. Our proposal overcomes the two limitations mentioned above, and can be applied to a homogeneous WSN with resource-constrained nodes with no need for a multicast routing support. Actually, the analysis and simulation results have clearly demonstrated that our scheme outperforms the previous well-known solutions.
