Authenticated Multi-Party Key Agreement

We examine key agreement protocols providing (i) key authentication (ii) key confirmation and (iii) forward secrecy. Attacks are presented against previous two-party key agreement schemes and we subsequently present a protocol providing the properties listed above.
