Pseudonym Authentication on Network Layer in Information-Centric Networks

The current data-centric security architecture for the Information Centric Network (ICN) does not provide efficient user authentication mechanisms, thus causing undesirable issues such as interest flooding a ttacks (IFA). I no rder to address them, this paper proposes a pseudonym authentication scheme on network layer based on the system of identity-based cryptography (IBC). In the proposed approach, each consumer needs to be authenticated...
