With the development of the grid and more and more attention attached to the privacy security, there is an urgent need of a secure anonymous authentication mechanism. In order to meet this requirement, we proposed an anonymous authentication mechanism based on Kerberos and HIBC, which is called KHIBC. It can meet the demand of authentication of Grid. At the same time, it can also protect the users' identity through anonymous method. Through analysis, KHIBC can meet the requirement of anonymity, mutual authentication, traceability and so on.
