Abstract
The Internet has been a great success but its architecture need relatively complete infrastructure construction to implement and operate. Especially, the situation worsens on resource-limited devices, so delay-tolerant network was proposed to overcome these disadvantages. The development of delay-tolerant network provides a new approach to transmit data but its confidentiality and integrity cannot be guaranteed well. The public-key cryptography provides a feasible mechanism to protect data. However, the maintenance cost of certificate authorities is large. Identity-based cryptography allows users to encrypt message with their identity information. Based on the above-mentioned technologies, we proposed a secure transmission system based on delay-tolerant network and identity-based cryptography, which does not rely on traditional key distribution mechanism and simplifies identity verification.
