Abstract

A new secure network communication technique that has been designed for mobile wireless services, is presented in this paper. Its network services are mobile, distributed, seamless, and secure. We focus on the security of the scheme and achieve anonymity and reliability by using cryptographic techniques like blind signature and the electronic coin. The question we address in this paper is, "What is the best way to protect the privacy and anonymity of users of mobile wireless networks, especially in practical applications like e-commerce?" The new scheme is a flexible solution that answers this question. It efficiently protects user's privacy and anonymity in mobile wireless networks and supports various applications. It is employed to implement a secure e-auction as an example, in order to show its advantages in practical network applications.
