| Abstract | An identity-based distributed key management scheme for airborne ad hoc networks is analyzed. It is demonstrated that in the generation phase of user private key, the user identity certificate is transmitted in the public channel, so that the attacker can use the intercepted identity certificate to fake the legitimate node and cheat the distributed key generation center to generate private key for it. Then, an improved authentication scheme is proposed. It constructs the signature of timestamp using the private key of the user node as authentication proof, so that the attacker can't forge the authentication information. It is showed that the improved scheme can effectively resist the forgery attack, and further reduce the computing cost of user nodes while realizing all the functions of the original scheme. |
