Criteria
• From IDs, scope and RFC 2477
• 11 criteria, classified and prioritized
• General, dimensional and AAA criteria
• GQM approach for measuring success

My solution
AAA Architecture with tick payments
HELSINKI UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY
Design principles
• Parallel AAA and MIP signaling• Reduced number of signaling
messages• Periodic payments• SPKI with RSA• Ideas from Ipay, DIAMETER and
BillNeat

Security
• RSA for signatures• SHA for payment messages• Symmetric encryption for authentication,
session keys, and signatures• Session ID• Billing ID• Timestamps for replay protection
HELSINKI UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY
Protocol operation
• Registration protocol– Slow mode: sequential, for compatibility– Fast mode: Parallel, optional grace period
• Payment protocol– Real time payments– Localized message handling– Policy based authorization– User controls the size of the bill

Conclusions
• Potential for significant improvements with parallel signaling
• Static trust relationships concentrated within organizational units
• Flexibility with SPKI and Policy Management
• Tick payments: efficiency & control
HELSINKI UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY
Future research ideas
• More extensive use of SPKI• Trust relationships• Certificate management
• Improved verification of credibility
• Integration with DIAMETER
• Policy management with distributed policies
