The purpose of the multiple key agreement protocol is to get efficiency in computational and communicational aspects compared to multiple executions of single key agreement protocol. However ID based tripartite multiple key agreement protocols have been proposed, it is reported that they can not resist unknown key-share attack or impersonation attack. How to design a secure and efficient ID-based authenticated tripartite multiple key agreement scheme to prevent all kinds of attacks remains an open problem. This paper proposes a multiple key agreement scheme combing the existing single key agreement protocol with a key derivation function. The proposed scheme can not only increase computational efficiency compared to the existing multiple key agreement protocol, but can ensure security of the proposed schemes by using a security proofed single key agreement protocol and key derivation function.

Development of an efficient and secure payment system is prerequisite for the construction of electronic payment mechanism in mobile environment. Since current PayWord protocol system generates vendor's certificate for each transaction, it requires lot of operation for transaction. In this paper, we use a session key generated by ID-based tripartite Key agreement protocol which use an Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem over finite field $F_{q}$ for transactions. Therefore, our protocol reduces algorithm operations. In particular, proposed protocol using ID-based public key cryptosystem has the advantages over the existing systems in speed and it is more secure in Man-in-the-middle attacks and Forward secrecy.

A group key agreement protocol allows a group of user to share a key which may later be used to achieve certain cryptographic goals. In this paper, we propose a new scalable two-round ID-based group key agreement protocol which would be well fit to a Pay-TV system, additionally. to the fields of internet stock quotes, audio and music deliveries, software updates and the like. Our protocol improves the three round poop key agreement protocol of Nam et al., resulting in upgrading the computational efficiency by using the batch verification technique in pairing-based cryptography. Also our protocol simplifies the key agreement procedures by utilizing ID-based system. We prove the security of our protocol under the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption and the Bilinear Decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption. Also we analyze its efficiency.

Many conference systems over the Internet require authenticated group key agreement (AGKA) for secure and reliable communication. After Shamir [1] proposed the ID-based cryptosystem in 1984, ID-based AGKA protocols have been actively studied because of the simple public key management. In 2006, Zhou et al. [12] proposed two-round ID-based AGKA protocol which is very efficient in communication and computation complexity. However, their protocol does not provide user identification and suffers from the impersonation attack by malicious participants. In this paper, we propose improved ID-based AGKA protocol to prevent impersonation attack from Zhou et al.'s protocol. In our protocol, the malicious insider cannot impersonate another participants even if he knows the ephemeral group secret value. Moreover, our protocol reduces the computation cost from Zhou et al.'s protocol.

A conference-key agreement protocol is essential for computer network conferences that need secure communications. Especially, the fault-tolerant conference-key agreement can make a shared conference-key even if some make conferees disturb the key agreement processes. However, the performance of the previous fault-tolerant conference-key agreement protocols is decreasing significantly when the number of fake conferees is increasing. In this paper, we propose an efficient fault-tolerant conference key agreement protocol. Our scheme is based on the ID-based one round tripartite conference key agreement protocol. Simulation results show our scheme's efficiency against Yi's method especially when the number of fake conferees is large.

Joux's tripartite key agreement protocol is one of the most prominent developments in the area of key agreement. Although certificate-based and ID-based authentication schemes have been proposed to provide authentication for Joux's protocol, no provably secure password-based one round tripartite key agreement protocol has been proposed yet. We propose a secure one round password-based tripartite key agreement protocol that builds on Joux's protocol and adapts PAK-EC scheme for password-based authentication, and present a proof of its security.

Despite several years of intense research, the security and cryptography in wireless sensor networks still have a number of ongoing problems. This paper describes how identification (ID)-based node authentication can be used to solve the key agreement problem in a three-layer interaction. The scheme uses a novel security mechanism that considers the characteristics, architecture, and vulnerability of the sensors, and provides an ID-based node authentication that does not require expensive certificates. The scheme describes the routing process using a simple ID suitable for low power and ID exposure, and proposes an ID-based node authentication. This method achieves low-cost communications with an efficient protocol. Results from this study demonstrates that it improves routing performance under different node densities, and reduces the computational cost of key encryption and decryption.

Key Agreement protocols are among the most basic and widely used cryptographic protocols. In this paper we present an efficient O-based authenticated key agreement (AKA) protocol by using bilinear maps, especially well suited to unbalanced computing environments : an ID-based AKA protocol for Server and Client. Particularly, considering low-power clients' devices, we remove expensive operations such as bilinear maps from a client side. Our protocol uses signcryption and provide security in random oracle model.

As the ID-based public key cryptosystems become a very active research area, a number of ID-based key agreement protocols have been proposed, but unfortunately many of them were analyzed that there were some security flaws in the protocols. In addition to key agreement protocols, in recent, Liu et al. and Kim et al. proposed the key agreement protocols that multiple session keys are established at once among participated entities. In this paper, we propose an ID-based tripartite key agreement protocol that establishes 8 keys by improving the efficiency of the Liu et al's. Moreover, the proposed protocol can be used in the situation where multiple different private key generators(PKG) are involved. Therefore, because the private key issued by different PKGs belonging to each entity's domain can be used, our proposed scheme is more efficiently applicable to the practical applications.
