Self-Organized Public-Key Management for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

Ad-hoc networks are the networks do not rely on fixed infrastructure. In such network all the networking functions are performed by the nodes in a self organized manner. Due to infrastructure less architecture security in communication is of a major concern. Ad-hoc networks are the evolving technology in wireless networks. In such network all the networking functions are performed by the nodes in a self organized manner. The main objective is to develop a fully self-organized public-key management system for Ad-hoc networks aims to realize a public-key cryptographic method to perform authentication regardless of the network partitions and without any centralized services. The Security method to be realized is based on self organization among network nodes by updating information.
