Fast Transmission To Remote Cooperative

The document proposes a new key management paradigm for efficiently and securely broadcasting to remote cooperative groups that overcomes limitations of existing approaches. The new paradigm is a hybrid of traditional broadcast encryption and group key agreement that allows a remote sender to securely broadcast to any ad hoc subgroup by using each member's public/private key pair. The proposed scheme is proven secure, prevents collusion, has constant overhead independent of group size, and facilitates efficient member changes without relying on a fully trusted authority.

Fast Transmission to Remote Cooperative Groups: A New Key Management Paradigm

Abstract
The problem of efficiently and securely broadcasting to a remote cooperative group occurs in many newly emerging networks. A major challenge in devising such systems is to overcome the obstacles of the potentially limited communication from the group to the sender, the unavailability of a fully trusted key generation centre and the dynamics of the sender. The existing key management paradigms cannot deal with these challenges effectively. In this paper, we circumvent these obstacles and close this gap by proposing a novel key management paradigm. The new paradigm is a hybrid of traditional broadcast encryption and group key agreement. In such a system, each member maintains a single public/secret key pair. pon seeing the public keys of the members, a remote sender can securely broadcast to any intended subgroup chosen in an ad hoc way. !ollowing this model, we instantiate a scheme which is proven secure in the standard model. "ven if all the non# intended members collude, they cannot extract any useful information from the transmitted messages. After the public group encryption key is extracted, both the computation overhead and the communication cost are independent of the group si$e. !urther, our scheme facilitates simple yet efficient member deletion/addition and flexible rekeying strategies. Its strong security against collusion, its constant overhead, and its implementation friendliness without relying on a fully trusted authority render our protocol a very promising solution to many applications.
