However, the heavyweight IPsec has a high transmission overhead and latency, and it cannot provide the address accountability. We propose the self-trustworthy and secure Internet protocol(T-IP) for authenticated and encrypted network layer communications. T-IP has the following advantages:(1) Self-Trustworthy IP address.(2) Low connection latency and transmission overhead.(3) Reserving the important merit of IP to be stateless.(4) Compatible with the existing TCP/IP architecture. We theoretically prove the security of our shared secret key in T-IP and the resistance to the known session key attack of our security-enhanced shared secret key calculation. Moreover, we analyse the possibility of the application of T-IP, including its resilience against the man-in-the-middle attack and Do S attack. The evaluation shows that T-IP has a much lower transmission overhead and connection latency compared with IPsec.展开更多
