A security framework for brokerless publish subscribe system using identity based signcryption
P. Anusree, Sreela Sreedhar · 2015
Publish subscribe communication paradigm has been recognized as the most promising communication paradigms for information dissemination in large scale distributed environment. It has been used in a variety of applications ranging from personalized information dissemination to a wide range of group communications. So publish subscribe system needs to fulfill the basic security demands of these information dissemination applications. Confidentiality, authentication, data integrity and non repudiation are the most important security services in security environment. Encryption and signature are the basic cryptographic tools for achieving these security services in communication system. This paper presents a novel approach to provide all the basic aspects of security such as confidentiality, authentication, integrity and Non-repudiation in broker-less content based publish subscribe system along with forward secrecy and unforgeability. The scheme use identity based signcryption technique and that can effectively reduces the computational cost and communication overhead.
