Message Authentication in wireless Networks using HMAC algorithm.

Abstract

A message is to be transferred from one network to another across some sort of internet. To do this a logical information channel should established by defining a route through the internet from source to destination with the help of some protocols. A security-related transformation on the information to be sent, with some secret information as secret key will be shared by the two networks and, it is hoped, unknown to the opponent. Wireless networks are increasingly being used in the network with limited cost and low equipment requirement. However, the growing popularity and widespread applications of wireless networks are directly proportionate to their security exploitation. The strength of its infrastructure also becomes the point of its greatest availability in the network. Thus decreasing the confidence level of the system as it pertains to availability, reliability, data integrity and privacy concerns. Message authentication is used to protecting the integrity of a message and validating identity of originator. The algorithm used in this paper for authenticating messages is Hash Message Authentication Codes (HMAC) with stream ciphering.
