Abstract
In self-organized environments such as mobile ad-hoc networks, network members are responsible for developing correctly and efficiently security service management among many others management tasks. The specific objective in the proposal here described is the enhancement of local certificate repositories building processes. The approach considered to meet this goal has been to define an authentication solution based on the web of trust concept combined with some tools belonging to the core of the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol. The experimental results obtained show a considerable decrease in resource consumption while carrying out the certificate verification process.
