Secure Handshake Mechanism for Autonomous Flying Agents Using Robust Cryptosystem
share
The autonomous flying agents in a Network-centric environment and brings out various security threats and various techniques of Cryptography. Primary Focus is on study and implementation of how cryptographic algorithms can be effectively be used in a warfare scenario. The data security is the utmost key factor for the protection of data in such environments. The paper proposes mechanisms secured data transmission from the command center (which can be the sending flying agent) to shooter target. The command center and shooter target have a unique set of encryption and decryption key which are created randomly by calibrating the security level at run time. In the beginning, the encryption key used for encrypting data is received from a shooter target when the communication is authenticated through UDP sockets. The encrypted data is sent to the shooter target with the signed signature and command center's encryption key. The encrypted data and signature are then decrypted and verified respectively at the shooter target. The time analysis is performed and observed inputs are provided to the command center.
