Abstract
To enable widespread commercial stream services, authentication is an important and challenging problem. There are three issues to consider for authenticating live streams: computation cost on the sender, communication overhead and verification probability on the receiver. As far as we know, SAIDA (Signature Amortization using IDA) is claimed to be the best algorithm in terms of the verification probability. In this paper, we describe eSAIDA, an efficient stream authentication scheme that is an improvement of SAIDA. We prove that under the restricted condition, the verification probability of eSAIDA is not less than that of SAIDA. Simulation results showed that under the same communication overhead its verification probability is much higher than that of SAIDA. Under various conditions, we measured the elapsed time of each scheme on the sender, which showed that the computation cost of the eSAIDA is lower than that of SAIDA.
