Analysis and Improvement of the Lightweight Mutual Authentication Protocol under EPC C-1 G-2 Standard

چکیده
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is a promising technology. It uses radio waves to identify objects. Through automatic and real-time data acquisition, this technology can give a great benefit to various industries by improving the efficiency of their operations. However, this ubiquitous technology has inherited problems in security and privacy. EPC Class 1 Generation 2 has served as the most popular standard for passive RFID tags. To improve the security of this standard, several protocols have been proposed compliant to this standard. In this paper we analyze the revised Yeh et al.’s(2010) protocol by Habibi et al.’s(2011) which is conforming to EPC-C1 G2 standard and is one of the most recent proposed protocols in this field. We discuss several drawbacks of this protocol, then we present our enhanced protocol which the security analysis showed that it can improve the security and privacy of RFID systems.

Game-Based Cryptanalysis of a Lightweight CRC-Based Authentication Protocol for EPC Tags
The term "Internet of Things (IoT)" expresses a huge network of smart and connected objects which can interact with other devices without our interposition. Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a great technology and an interesting candidate to provide communications for IoT networks, but numerous security and privacy issues need to be considered. In this paper, we analyze the security and ...
متن کاملAttacks on a Lightweight Mutual Authentication Protocol under EPC C-1 G-2 Standard
Yeh et al. have recently proposed a mutual authentication protocol based on EPC Class-1 Gen.-2 standard. They claim their protocol is secure against adversarial attacks and also provides forward secrecy. In this paper we show that the proposed protocol does not have cited security features properly. A powerful and practical attack is presented on this protocol whereby the whole security of the ...

The widespread use of wireless cellular networks has made security an ever increasing concern. GSM is the most popular wireless cellular standard, but security is an issue. The most critical weakness in the GSM protocol is the use of one-way entity authentication, i.e., only the mobile station is authenticated by the network. This creates many security problems including vulnerability against m...
