Abstract :
As mobile agent can provide better flexibility and performance, it takes an important part in the mobile business application nowadays. At the same time, it has to face much more new uncertain secure problems in several business domains. Therefore, there is a secure mobile payment protocol based on multi-agents to resolve the above security problem, so as to integrate the current mobile agent security solutions and the existing mobile payment protocols. The protocol disscussed in this paper uses n agents to realize decentralization, which makes that the signature won´t become effective unless there have k proxy agents from the n proxy agents. Finally, it demonstrates the mobile payment protocol discussed in this paper performs better than the existing methods.
