Abstract: Many applications in distributed computing systems, such as IP telephony, teleconferencing, collaborative workspaces, interactive chats and multi-user games, involve dynamic peer groups. In order to secure communications in dynamic peer groups, group key agreement protocols are needed. In this paper, we come up with a new group key agreement protocol, composed of a basic protocol and a dynamic protocol, for large-scale dynamic peer groups.
Our protocols are natural extensions of one round tripartite Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol.
