Enhancing Security and Privacy in 5G Bubbles with Zero-Knowledge Proofs: A Comparative Analysis
Résumé
In the domain of authentication, information leakage which can lead to identity theft represents a significant challenge in the field of cybersecurity. This challenge is particularly relevant in the context of 5G tactical bubbles, where secure and efficient authentication mechanisms are critical to gain access to sensitive information and communication services. The concept of Zero-Knowledge Proofs, in particular non-interactive proofs, has gained attention in recent years as robust cryptographic methods for privacy-preserving protocols. Zero-knowledge proofs enable users to prove possession of specific knowledge to verifiers without revealing the knowledge itself in a single interaction round. Despite its growing popularity, Zero-Knowledge Proofs have not yet been fully explored within 5G tactical bubbles. In this paper, we perform a comparative analysis between traditional authentication mechanisms and Zero-Knowledge Proofs-enabled authentications. To this end, we evaluate the feasibility in terms of time and computational complexity and determine whether these advanced authentication protocols can ensure enhanced privacy and security in 5G tactical bubbles.
