This paper proposes a service that provides authentication and revocation of nodes at runtime communications on a DHT network. Authentication is provided through digital certificates coupled with public key infrastructure. Thus messages from compromised nodes will be discarded even if the node joined the network at the time it was valid. Search speed and data success rate tests were performed, considering the authentication verification and message signing before obtaining the information from the network. To implement the tests, the CORE Emulator was used. The results obtained demonstrated that the proposed service provides secure communication on the DHT network, providing performance similar to that of using the DHT network without the reactive authentication service implemented.
