A client-led client authentication method

Abstract

The invention provides a client authentication method led by the client. In the present invention, the client to be authenticated specifies other clients for authentication, and uses the resources of the nearby clients applied for to delegate the authentication tasks that should be undertaken by the server to nearby clients with good qualifications middle. This method of completing the authentication process by obtaining authentication information from one client to another client reduces the burden on the server, enables the server to use resources for more important services, and reduces the burden on the server. Performance requirements. Moreover, the near-field communication is used for authentication between clients, which saves the traffic of the mobile network and reduces the cost of the user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication network security, in particular to an authentication method between devices. Background technique [0002] With the vigorous development of Internet services and the wide application of wireless networks, the security of mobile users has put forward more and more requirements for wireless systems: in addition to device authentication, user authentication and service authorization, wireless users and access The establishment of secure channels between entry points or base stations, the exchange of confidential information, and the confidential channels between BS and authenticator, authenticator and authentication server, the exchange of confidential information, etc. Issues that do not need to be considered and currently require a lot of attention. [0003] In the prior art, the network structure mainly includes two types of C / S structure and B / S structure. [0004] C / S (Client / Server) str...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] For the C / S structure, since each server is connected to a large number of clients, it undertakes a heavy service task. When a large number of clients connect to the server at the same time, the load on the server will increase, the operation will slow down, and the service quality will deteriorate. Poor, server maintenance costs increase substantially

[0006] One of the most important functions of the server is the authentication function of the client, so that the client can obtain the corresponding service. When the server is congested due to overload, the authentication process will be affected, so that the user cannot log in to the server, and the user experience will deteriorate.

Moreover, a large amount of information is transmitted during the authentication process, which will generate a large amount of traffic for mobile client users and increase the economic burden of users
