Efficient and Secure Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol

Provably secure and efficient identity-based key agreement protocol for independent PKGs using ECC

Key agreement protocols are essential for secure communications in open and distributed environments. Recently, identity-based key agreement protocols have been increasingly researched because of the simplicity of public key management. The basic idea behind an identity-based cryptosystem is that a public key is the identity (an arbitrary string) of a user, and the corresponding private key is ...

Provably-Secure Enhancement on 3GPP Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol

SE-AKA: A secure and efficient group authentication and key agreement protocol for LTE networks

To support Evolved Packet System (EPS) in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has proposed an authentication and key agreement (AKA) protocol, named EPS-AKA, which has become an emerging standard for fourth-generation (4G) wireless communications. However, due to the requirement of backward compatibility, EPS-AKA inevitably inherits some defects...

A Secure and efficient elliptic curve based authentication and key agreement protocol suitable for WSN

Authentication and key agreement protocols play an important role in wireless sensor communication networks. Recently Xue et al’. suggested a key agreement protocols for WSN which in this paper we show that the protocol has some security flaws. Also we introduce an enhanced authentication and key agreement protocol for WSN satisfying all the security requirements.

A Secure and Efficient Mutual Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol with Smart Cards for Wireless Communications

Mobile user authentication and key agreement for wireless networks is an important security priority. In recent years, several user authentication and key agreement protocols with smart cards for wireless communications have been proposed. In 2011, Xu et al. proposed an efficient mutual authentication and key agreement protocol with an anonymity property. Although the protocol of Xu et al. has ...
