A Secure Hash-Based Strong-Password Authentication Scheme
نویسندگان
چکیده
Password authentication remains to be the most common form of user authentication. So far, many strong-password authentication schemes based on hash functions have been proposed, however, none is sufficiently secure and efficient. Based on the analysis of attacks against OSPA(Optimal Strong Password Authentication) protocol, we present a hash-based StrongPassword mutual Authentication Scheme (SPAS), which is resistant to DoS attacks, replay attacks, impersonation attacks, and stolen-verifier attacks.

A Secure Hash-Based Strong-Password Authentication Protocol Using One-Time Public-Key Cryptography
Secure communication is an important issue in networks and user authentication is a very important part of the security. Several strong-password authentication protocols have been introduced, but there is no fully secure authentication scheme that can resist all known attacks. We propose enhanced secure schemes with registration and login protocols, and add the “forget password” and password/ve...

User authentication is an essential task for network security. To serve this purpose,in the past years, several strong password authentication schemes have been proposed, but none of them probably withstand to known security threats. In 2004, W. C. Ku proposed a new hash based strong password authentication scheme and claimed that the proposed scheme withstands to replay, password fie compromis...

The user authentication is an important part of network security. Several strong-password authentication protocols have been introduced, but a secure scheme, which probably withstands to several known attacks, is not yet available. Recently, a hash-based strong-password authentication scheme was described in [2], which withstands to the several attacks, including replay, passwordfile compromise...

User authentication is one of the fundamental procedures to provide secure communications between user and server over an insecure public channel. Recently, Wang et. al. proposed password-based user authentication scheme based on hash function and modular exponentiation and they claimed that their scheme provides strong authentication than related scheme. But in this paper, it is pointed out th...

Security is another important aspect and its development has enhanced widespread adoption of WSNs. In a typical situation, user wants to access the data directly from a node instead of accessing at the gateway or at the backend of an application system. Therefore, it is necessary that such an access is allowed only to a registered user. Recently, 3-way chaining authentication scheme which uses ...
