  • Abstract
    This paper addresses one the security problems of mobile ad-hoc network: the P2P dynamic secure group key establishment. In the paper we are proposing a new efficient P2P hierarchal group key management protocol for ad-hoc networks. The paper introduces a two level hierarchical structure and a new scheme of group key update.
