In this paper, we put forward a delay-aware secure maximum distance separable (MDS) coded caching scheme to resist the eavesdropping attacks for device-to-device (D2D) content sharing by combining MDS coding with distributed caching.In particular, we define the average system delay to show the potential coupling of delay-content awareness, and learn the secure constraints to ensure that randomly distributed eavesdroppers cannot obtain enough encoded packets to recover their desired contents.Accordingly, we model such a caching problem as an optimization problem to minimize the average system delay with secure constraints and simplify it to its convex relaxation.Then we develop a delay-aware secure MDS coded caching algorithm to obtain the optimal caching policy.Extensive numerical results are provided to demonstrate the excellent performance of our proposed algorithm.Compared with the random coded caching scheme, uniform coded caching scheme and popularity based coded caching scheme, our proposed scheme has 3.7%, 3.3% and 0.7% performance gains, respectively.
