Abstract

The performance of secure multicast is based on an efficient group rekeying strategy which ensures that only authorized members have access to the content. In this paper a HW-solution for group rekeying is proposed. Besides the high performance guaranteed by pipelining and dynamic tree management, the Batch Rekeying Processor enables two modes of operation: real-time and batch rekeying. In addition, our solution uses a new strategy to keep the loss of QoS and access control caused by batching within system-specific limits.
