A Strong RFID Mutual Authentication Protocol Based on a Lightweight Public-key Cryptosystem
نویسندگان
چکیده
RFID is a key technology that can be used to create the ubiquitous society. However, this technology may suffer from some serious threats such as privacy disclosure. In order to solve these secure problems we propose a strong mutual authentication protocol based on a lightweight public-key cryptosystem: NTRU. The protocol assures the confidentiality of the RFID system by encrypting the messages communicated between tags and readers and the freshness of the messages by using pseudorandom number generator. Otherwise, the protocol can also prevent replay attack, tracing, and eavesdropping effectively. This authentication protocol uses less computing and memory resources, and it is very suitable to some low-cost 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 کاملEfficient Mutual Authentication for Multi-domain RFID Systems Using Distributed Signatures
The use of RFID technology in complex and distributed environments often leads to a multi-domain RFID system in which security issues such as authentication of tags and readers, granting access to data, and revocation of readers turn into an administrative challenge. In this paper, we propose a new public-key-based mutual authentication protocol that addresses the reader revocation problem whil...
متن کاملAn Elliptic Curve-based Mutual Authentication Scheme for RFID Implant Systems
In this paper, a secure mutual authentication scheme for an RFID implant system is developed. An insecure communication channel between a tag and a reader makes the RFID implant system vulnerable to attacks and endangers the user’s safety and privacy. The proposed scheme relies on elliptic curve cryptography and the D-Quark lightweight hash design. Compared to the available public-key cryptosys...

متن کاملStrong Authentication and Strong Integrity (SASI) Is Not That Strong
In this work, we present a practical passive attack on SASI, an ultra-lightweight mutual authentication protocol for RFID. This attack can be used to reveal with overwhelming probability the secret ID of the prover by eavesdropping about 2 authentications. The result dismantles SASI and, more generally, provides a new approach that threatens ultra-lightweight authentication protocols.
