The simulation results using the widely-accepted AVISPA tool for the formal security verification reveal that the proposed scheme is also secure against replay and man-in-the-middle attacks.
The
practicality of the proposed scheme for measurement of various
network parameters is evaluated using the broadly-accepted NS2
network simulator. Our scheme reduces the computation and
communication overheads of the mobile users. Thus, the efficiency
along with more security functionalities make our scheme is very suitable in the distributed mobile cloud computing environment
as compared to the other related existing schemes.
