Secure Overlay Routing Using Key Pre-Distribution: A Linear Distance

 Secure Overlay Routing Using Key Pre-Distribution: A Linear Distance

 Key pre-distribution algorithms have recently emerged as efficient alternatives of key management in today’s secure communications landscape. Secure routing techniques using key pre-distribution algorithms require special algorithms capable of finding optimal secure overlay paths. To the best of our knowledge, the literature of key pre-distribution systems is still facing a major void in proposing optimal overlay routing algorithms. In the literature work, traditional routing algorithms are typically used twice to find a NETWORK layer path from the source node to the destination and then to find required cryptographic paths.
