Abstract
A light weight authentication scheme is proposed to accommodate the secure authentication requirement for wireless Internet applications. The scheme can adapt to various authentication scenarios in mobile wireless Internet applications and provide secure and private communication sessions from other parties, including foreign networks. It is applied at the application layer as an add-on module, and virtually requires no modifications to the current Internet applications.
