Abstract

In this study, we propose an authentication mechanism with privacy protection for opportunistic networks. It is applied for the short-term and limited-time wireless network environment, and a super node is set to manage node registration. The proposal implements some encryption and security technologies to against security threats and attacks. In the analysis, the proposed mechanism finishes the authentication with less data, and provides anonymity and user privacy in the network.
