A lightweight cryptographic scheme of route hiding for the on-demand route discovery algorithms
Nikita Baranov, Vladimir A. Bashkin, Mikhail Bashkin · 2018
A method is presented that allows to hide route information from the intermediate nodes in the on-demand route discovery process. An abstract model of hiding technique and a particular implementation of this model, based on Paillier cryptosystem, are presented. Homomorphic encryption allows to work on the encrypted routing data without decrypting it first, thus minimizing the computational load.
