LIGHTWEIGHT GROUP KEY MANAGEMENT FOR DATA DISSIMILATION FORDYNAMIC SDN MANET ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract

The Internet of Things has grown the next big step in the development of that corresponding current Internet as well as communicates security protection as one of the most significant problems. In specific, use situations and deployment environments that adopt group communication systems need to be appropriately secured to protect the transfer of messages among group members from several safety assaults. A distinct way to secure group communication is based on the implementation of a symmetric group key distributed between all group members. This, in turn, needs focusing on a group key management system that is accountable for revoking and renewing the group key when nodes join or leave the group. The adopted group key management system should be effective and extremely scalable with the group size due to the resource-constrained nature of typical SDN systems.
