Abstract
A technique for handling data provided from a source node to a collecting node in a data network is described. As to a method aspect of the technique, the source node generates a sequence of values. The sequence is unrevealed in the data network by the source node in a time interval. An authentication of the sequence is triggered in the data network. The authentication associates the sequence with the source node. One or more signatures for one or more data sets to be sent in the time interval are computed using one or more values of the sequence. The one or more data sets in the time interval are sent from the source node to the collecting node. The source node further provides one or more of the signatures.
