Attribute-Based Encryption (ABE) is a type of authentication mechanism that validates both the users and their attributes. It is practical for the systems that need authorization according to credentials. In a multi-agent system, specifying an access policy within the user groups is crucial to enable authentic and confidential communication. This paper proposes an attribute-based authentication framework based on elliptic curves to provide privacy in multi-agent systems. In this system, we aim to alleviate the required burden of verification by ensuring that each unit verifies only a small amount of messages. Inspired by Zhang et al. [1], we use ABE for the multi-agent system to authenticate more than one user at a time; our scheme uses elliptic curve groups, unlike Zhang et al. We have thoroughly evaluated the various security attributes and discussed computational overheads for our proposed scheme.
