SEC: Security Control System for the Integration of Mobile Agent and Web Services based on Certificateless Cryptography and Two Party Hashing Key Agreement Protocol

Abstract

Security is a major concern for wide applications in large hostile networks like internet. More and More people are willing to access information anytime and anywhere. The advances in mobile devices and wireless networks lead to requirements to tackle the problems like high error rates and frequent disconnections. Currently, the two modern technologies: Mobile Agents and Web Services are used altogether to achieve ubiquitous service access. As a result of applications using combination of mobile agent and web services, security becomes a big concern for applications. The integration of mobile agent and cryptography technologies provide benefits such as improved accessibility wirelessly and increased security. In this paper, SEC (Security Control) System to control the security of the integrated Mobile Agent and Web Services based on certificateless cryptography and (TPHK), two party hashing key agreement protocol, is proposed.
