  • Abstract
    Certificate validation is much more complex in mobile ad hoc networks than in conventional networks because online access to trusted authorities is not always guaranteed. For this reason, we require new solutions to overcome both the lack of infrastructure and the limited capabilities of several user devices. In this article we study the application of different mechanisms for certificate validation in MANETs and present a cooperative mechanism for certificate validation suitable for MANETs.
