R3: Learning Kerberos

[Work done from 23rd June to 6th July 2008]

During this fortnight week we had a group meeting and we plane to do some work. And also I studied about the Kerberos Architecture and got to know about that feasibility in our project. Kerberos is good Network Authentication protocol which can be helpful for your project. And that protocol and it has a own Architecture. And it is mainly designed to provide strong authentication for client/server applications by using secret-key cryptography.

Problems Encountered:
Main problem that I had was, hard to understand about the Kerbros Architecture. Because all the terms and technologies that used there were very new for me. It was hard to gather various information from that technique. All of theĀ  existing topics were really new for me. And It was very hard to manage the time with other academic stuff.

Overcome the Problems:
After we talked with our Supervisor Dr. Chandana Gamage, we understood some underneath structure and how its work. Then I could got some more about that Architecture. And also I read more about Kerbros Architecture.

Even though it is usual that the academic stuff is high we have to manage it anyhow.
