Abstract :
This paper introduces a lightweight and secure framework enabling the refreshing of private keys in identity-based public key infrastructures. The framework is applied to enable secure inter-operation between entities with different trusted authorities in dynamic coalition environments. The approach is particularly well-suited to coalition forming in computation and bandwidth-limited MANETs.
