Group communication is invariably used for services that demand high availability, such as distributed databases, replicated servers and clouds, and collaborative applications, such as multimedia conferencing, shared whiteboards, and multiparty games [1]. Peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture is preferred over hierarchical network architectures in such distributed applications for achieving availability. As data are stored at multiple peers in such architectures, assuring data integrity and condentiality is important [2].
