Abstract

To ensure secure communication between any two entities, authenticated key agreement protocol is the primary step and current research has a lot of contribution in this direction. In this paper, we propose a Pairing Free Identity-based Two-Party Authenticated Key Agreement protocol and gather the implementation results for Wireless Sensor Networks on MICAz mote by using Relic-toolkit cryptographic library. The proposed protocol is efficient as it does not use any pairing operation and only uses three scalar point multiplications. The security of the protocol has been proved secure using strongest security model for identity-based key agreement protocol presented by Liang et al.
