An Efficient and Secure ID-based Remote User Authentication Scheme using Smart Card

The User Authentication mechanism technology has enjoyed strong growth in recent year, but security threats and facing attacks in authentication have grown equally fast. Today, there are many potential attacks that are targeted at authentication including insider attack, masquerade attack, server spoofing attack, parallel session attack, offline password guessing attack and many more. Recently, In 2010 R. Song proposed advanced smart card based password authentication protocol with such non-tamper resistant smart card based on symmetric key cryptosystem as well as modular exponentiation. R. Song et al Scheme is vulnerable to the offline password attack, insider attack; forward secrecy and denial of service attack are cryptanalyses by W B Horng. In this article, we will propose an efficient ID-based authentication scheme which can avoid all type of security flaws. The functionally, performance and security analysis show that our proposed scheme is feasible in terms of computation cost, storage capacity and the scheme can resist server attack.
