Kameswara Rao, Bharadwaj Bharadwaj, N. Satya Sai Ram · Procedia Computer Science · 2016
Authentication in present day system environment, is a fundamental building block for secure access to organized assets. Kerberos is a symmetric key authentication framework that permits customers to safely access networked services. But the present version of Kerberos has certain weak points which incorporate replay attacks(or)assaults, Denial of service attacks and attacks against network time protocols(or)conventions, password attacks(or)assaults against Ticket-Granting tickets. In this paper, we present an expanded form of time synchronization and freshness plan for symmetric encryption key-based Kerberos 5 authentication for client-server situation.
