Abstract: In past few years, Web has huge impact on distributed computing. The provisioning of fundamental security mechanisms like authentication and confidentiality for Sender/Receiver System is exceptionally difficult. Authentication of Senders and Receivers is hard to accomplish because of the loosely coupling of Senders and Receivers. Moreover, privacy of events and subscriptions conflicts with content based routing. This paper displays a novel methodology to provide confidentiality and authentication in Sender/Receiver System. By adapting pairing-based cryptography mechanisms, the authentication of Senders and Receivers and additionally confidentiality of events is guaranteed, to the needs of a Sender/Receiver system. Besides, an algorithm to cluster Receivers as respective of their subscriptions protects a weak notion of subscription privacy. There can be some improvements which can be doneto the existing systems [8]. Like 1) utilization of searchable encryption for allowing proficient routing of encrypted events, 2) Exhaustive examination of number of attacks on subscription confidentiality, and 3) Multicredential routing another event dissemination technique to reinforce the weak subscription confidentiality. The general methodology offers fine-grained key management and the expense for encryption, decryption, and routing is in the request of subscribed properties. In addition, the assessments demonstrate that providing security is reasonable with respect to 1) delay brought about amid the development of the Sender/Receiver overlay and the event dissemination, 2) Throughput of the presented cryptographic primitives.
