Abstract

In a Delay Tolerant Mobile Social Network (MSN) it is very difficult to maintain end-to-end security, which makes it vulnerable to various attacks like black hole attack, spoofing, modifies routing packets, packets dropping and many more. Apart from the attacks, there are various challenges in security of MSN like access control, confidentiality and intrusion detection system. Previously proposed model for security mechanism like efficient certificateless aggregate signature scheme provides security without the headache of maintaining the certificate, but the cost of signature verification is very high. So, to resolve these problems we are using HIBE (Hierarchical Identity Based Encryption) and proposing SPCRP (Secure Profile Cast Routing Protocol) which will provide end-to-end security along with the efficient key management, fine grained revocation and make sure the authorized access. We used ONE (Opportunistic Network) simulator with Profile Cast Routing protocol and observed various parameter overhead_ratio, number of messages transmitted, threshold value. We can conclude that this secure environment provides integrity, confidentiality and didn’t reveal the behavioural profile of the users.
