More Information
Summary:Various disclosed embodiments include methods, devices and systems establishing secure discovery and secure communication in an ad hoc information-centric network (ICN). An application in a consumer device sends a discovery interest including an associated service name or prefix encrypted by an encryption key using the ICN. A producer device publishing and discovery protocol (SPDP) on an ICN stack of the producer device receives the discovery interest and verifies the consumer device using the encryption key. The producer device SPDP returns a data protocol data unit (PDU) to the consumer device configured to enable the consumer device to access the published service, and the consumer device establishes routing with the producer device and receives the local published service.
