Techniques to provide security solutions have been proposed and some have achieved good results. For example, it is possible to launch a code with a guarantee that it cannot attack the hosting sites. The main problem remaining, however, is protecting the mobile code against malicious service providers, the host problem. This paper proposed a Mobile Agent management scheme in a hierarchical level that provides to user a reliable and flexible global access to internet/network information services. We further described a protection mechanism to Mobile Agents against malicious hosts. As an effort to address host problems we first identify the kinds of attack that may be performed by malicious hosts, and propose a mechanism to prevent these attacks. At each agent host we introduce a trusted third party entity on each server called Secure Service Station (SSS) to carry out security actions.展开更多

In such kind of Internet based applications, access must be secure and authentication takes a vital role to avoid malicious use of the system. This kind of security has been provided by several previously proposed algorithms based on RSA digital signature cryptography. However, the computational time for performing encryption and decryption operations in the past literatures is very high. In this paper, we propose an anonymous authentication scheme which potentially reduces the overall computation time needed for verifying the legitimacy of the users. Comparing with previous anonymous authentication schemes, our proposed scheme provides more security and it is effective in terms of computation cost. The experimental results show that the proposed method authenticates the users with low computational time significantly.展开更多
