Identification and confidentiality are the main objective of any distributed system. Provision of security operations such as authentication and confidentiality is highly challenging in a content based publish/ subscribe system. Identification is an essential mechanism in distributed information systems. The main concept is to share the secured data between the subscribers using attributes,it may a weak notion but the concept of multi-credential routing makes it robust. This paper presents the mainly 1)The idea of identity (ID)-based public key cryptosystem, which enables users to communicate, a publisher which acts as an admin uses a private key to each user when first joins the networks.2)It provides the pairing based cryptography to maintain the authenticity and confidentiality of the publisher and subscribers by maintaining the secure layer maintenance protocol.3)The attributes helps to share data by generating a secure route between the publisher and subscriber.4) The provision to attempt the three goals of secure pub/sub system i.e. authentication, confidentiality, scalability by performing hard encryptions on the data to prevent thes malicious publishers to enter in the network,a thorough analysis of attacks is performed on the system.
