Development of the protected data transfer protocol for the MANET networks on the basis of residue number system

Abstract

In this paper the cryptographic data transfer protocol in MANET networks, which allows to construct the noise-proof scheme providing confidentiality and integrity of the transmitted data, is being developed. The effective implementation of the proposed scheme is provided with use of the threshold secret sharing scheme constructed with use of the residue number system (RNS), and reliability of secret keys exchange system with the modified cryptosystem XTR. It is shown that if malefactor doesn't know the secret key or has less than k projections of a secret, he will learn nothing about the transmitted data
