“…Johnson et al . proposed a lightweight hierarchical architecture and access control mechanism , and also established the similarity between generic AAA architecture and opportunistic network bundle structure, and demonstrated the applicability of hierarchical framework and AAA concept to the delay/disruption‐tolerant network environment. Their proposed design has the ability to prevent masquerading, modification, and replay attacks, and provides communication efficiency, less load on the server, and less restriction on recipient network connectivity.…”

“…Because of the scarcity of opportunistic network resource, node access control is necessary to protect the network from unauthenticated entities and prevent unauthorized entities from using network resource . There are three access control management frameworks, which are centralized, distributed, and hierarchical framework for different network environments , while hierarchical access control framework is the preferred solution for Oppnets .…”

As a new networking paradigm, opportunistic networking communications have great vision in animal migration tracking, mobile social networking, network communications in remote areas and intelligent transportation, and so on. Opportunistic networks are one of the evolutionary mobile ad hoc networks, whose communication links often suffer from frequent disruption and long communication delays. Therefore, many opportunistic forwarding protocols present major security issues, and the design of opportunistic networks faces serious challenges such as how to effectively protect data confidentiality and integrity and how to ensure routing security, privacy, cooperation, and trust management. In this paper, we first systematically describe the security threats and requirements in opportunistic networks; then propose a general security architecture of opportunistic networks; and then make an in‐depth analysis on authentication and access control, secure routing, privacy protection, trust management, and incentive cooperation mechanisms; and at the same time, we present a comparison of various security and trust solutions for opportunistic networks. Finally, we conclude and give future research directions. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract. DTN environment is characterized by intermittent connectivity, high/variable delay, heterogeneity, high error rate and asymmetric data rate amongst others. These characteristics accounts for the poor behavior of Internet protocols in this environment. To address these problems, DTN was conceived and designed together with specialized protocols to carry out its services. Its emergence called for a new concept in security that was considered at the design stage. The main aim of this paper is to propose a traditional cryptography based authentication scheme that does not depend on network administrator's availability during post network authentication communication and facilitates bundle processing by the recipient in the absence of connectivity. In this paper, we present and discuss the system model, the proposed credential and the propose authentication scheme. A simulation framework is developed for the implementation of the proposed and referenced schemes. From the simulation results, the proposed scheme was observed to be independent of network administrator's availability during post network authentication communication and facilitates bundle processing in the absence of connectivity.
