Abstract

With tremendous growth in communication model, the application dependent on group communication like stock exchange activities, file sharing, war gaming, teleconferencing, pay per view, online education also grown. But in such application security is prime concern. All related things are encrypted via keys and shared to achieve privacy and security. In this paper we identified all methodologies used for group and hierarchical key management and done their analysis. We identified major algorithms for management of group key in communication networks and study several criteria of performance such as computation, storage, and communication overhead at the time of revocation of different users considering evaluation parameters. We find challenges in designing key management algorithm based on various factors. We found power of key management lies in minimization of overhead involved in time and storage at the moment of generation of key, distribution of keys and key updation when a node member joins or leaves the communication group. So it is need to guarantee to safe group key and safe group communication. Research work must be intended toward secure generation of keys, distribution of keys and exchanges of messages in secure environment. Analysis of all methodologies gives an idea for designing a good group key management algorithm either for wired, wireless, IoT devices and cloud platform. This review paper explored various security challenges and issues for handling group key like network compatibility, related to performance and security. This paper enables researcher to take better decisions since all schemes are mentioned in chronological order.
