SECURITY ANALYSIS AND IMPROVEMENT FOR KERBEROS

BASED ON DYNAMIC PASSWORD AND DIFFIE-HELLMAN

ALGORITHM

Abstract:

This paper analyses the process of Kerberos authentication protocol, and finds the
existing security problems of the protocol referring to some Kerberos improvement
projects proposed in some papers at home and abroad, and puts forward the thoughts
and methods using dynamic password to improve the encryption security during the
process of interaction between the client and Kerberos key distribution center, and
makes passwords securely exchanged by using Diffile-Hellman key algorithm.
