However, these protocols are mainly focusing on multi-participant within a single domain in an open network environment. This paper proposes a novel approach for designing a cross-domain group PAKE protocol, that primarily handles with the setting of multi-participant in the multi- domain. Moreover, our protocol is proved secure against active adversary in the Real-or-Random (ROR) model. In our protocol, no interaction occurs between any two domain authentication servers. They are regarded as ephemeral certificate authorities (CAs) to certify key materials that participants might subsequently use to exchange and agree on group session key. We further justify the computational complexity and measure the average computation time of our protocol. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to analyze and discuss a provably secure multi-participant cross-domain group PAKE protocol.展开更多

Based on the efficient CPK scheme, we present an efficient three-round two-party authenticated key exchange protocol with strong security, which is provably secure in the standard model under the decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) assumption. The protocol can keep the session key secret from the adversary except that one party's ephemeral private key and static private key are all revealed to the adversary. Compared to the existing protocols, this protocol not only assures strong security but also is more efficient.展开更多
