Abstract

SyncML provides identity authentication service for the security of the data synchronization protocol at the server layer and database layer,. But the data is transmitted in cleartext XML after the authentication. These data are not encrypted and it is easy to be tapped. In order to enhance its security, this paper provides us a novel encryption data synchronization protocol which uses hierarchical encryption algorithms. Finally, an example is presented to illustrate this protocol and architecture.
