N2 - Group authentication schemes as introduced by Boyd and by Desmedt and Frankel are cryptographic schemes in which only certain designated groups can provide messages with authentication information. In this paper we study unconditionally secure group authentication schemes based on linear perfect secret sharing and authentication schemes, for which we give expressions for the probabilities of successful attacks. Furthermore, we give a construction that uses maximum rank distance codes.
