Abstract

Since group communication is an upcoming technology, research on secure multicasting has been attracting wide attention. In this context, the already proven PLEASE, p´ LEAder SElection model has much to contribute to the security and key management of the multicast group communication. In this paper, the PLEASE model is mathematically compared with other well-known group key management protocols like GKMP, DEP, Iolus etc, in terms of security related parameters. The IGKMP has been implemented in NS-2 and compared with PLEASE model graphically.
