New Access Control Scheme for Named Data Networking Introduced

/ 1 min read

🔑✨ New encryption-based access control scheme enhances security in Named Data Networking. A recent paper introduces a novel mechanism for secure data sharing in Named Data Networking (NDN), allowing producers to encrypt content with time-based subscription policies. This ensures that only consumers with valid subscriptions can decrypt the data, making it ideal for subscription services like Netflix. The scheme also features an anonymous signature-based authentication to help edge routers prevent Denial of Service (DoS) attacks by blocking fraudulent requests. Formal security proofs confirm its resilience against Chosen Plaintext Attacks (CPA), while performance analyses demonstrate its superiority over existing methods in functionality, security, and communication efficiency.
