Abstract
A secure and versatile key exchange protocol for key management over Internet is presented. SKEME constitutes a compact protocol that supports a variety of realistic scenarios and security models over Internet. It provides clear tradeoffs between security and performance as required by the different scenarios without incurring in unnecessary system complexity. The protocol supports key exchange based on public key, key distribution centers, or manual installation, and provides for fast and secure key refreshment. In addition, SKEME selectively provides perfect forward secrecy, allows for replaceability and negotiation of the underlying cryptographic primitives, and addresses privacy issues as anonymity and repudiatability. 1 Introduction The need to secure the Internet is now clear to everyone. Consequently, more and more mechanisms to provide security at different layers and different applications are being developed. Common to most of these security mechanisms is the need for key ...
