as a response to a growing interest in rfid systems such as internet of things technology along with satisfying the security of these networks, proposing secure authentication protocols are indispensable part of the system design. hence, authentication protocols to increase security and privacy in rfid applications have gained much attention in the literature. in this study, security and privac...

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...

In order to provide different services for the customers, banks embark on a multimedia contact center. Considering that, in this center, where several services such as transferring money, getting statement information and asking for check books are provided, the authentication is of high importance. How to allocate the appropriate authentication method for each customer is one of the challe...

Many security protocols have the aim of authenticating one agent acting as initiator to another agent acting as responder and vice versa. Sometimes, the authentication fails because of executing several parallel sessions of a protocol, and because an agent may play both the initiator and responder role in parallel sessions. We take advantage of the notion of transition systems to specify authen...

recently, baghery et al. [1, 2] presented some attacks on two rfid protocols, namely yoon and jung et al. protocols, and proposed the improved version of them. however, in this note, we show that the improved version of the jung et al. protocol suffers from desynchronization attack and the improved version of the yoon's protocol suffers from secret disclosure attack. the success probabilit...
