RFID system is the contact-less recognition technology and use for distribution system, environment, transport, security and so on. However, it may create many security relevant problems such as privacy because constraints of RFID communication environment. So several methods of resolving these problems have been proposed. Recently, Shin and Park proposed an efficient RFID authentication protocol with protecting user's privacy using hash function and exclusive-OR.. But Ahn and Bu et al. poia problem that a attacker can to masquerade as malicious reader because their protocol can't providing mutual authentication.nted out weakness of Shin and Park's protocol and proposed more secure and efficient protocol. Unfortunately, Ahn and But's protocol has In this paper, We propose an improved RFID authentication protocol providing mutual authentication. The proposed protocol has advantages that providing mutual authentication between a tag and a reader, secure against replay attack and spoofing attack. Also, it guarantees anonymity of RFID tag and secure against location tracking attack by collusion of malicious readers.

In 2006, Lee and Ahn proposed a matrix-based RFID authentication protocol which eliminates the security problems in HB and $HB^+$ RFID authentication protocols. Their proposed protocol provides the following three merits: (1) it reduces the computational costs of the RFID tag. (2) it reduces the communication overhead between the reader and the tag. (3) it protects the user privacy. However, this paper points out that Lee and Ahn's proposed protocol is insecure to various attacks because it does not provide mutual authentication which the RFID tag does not authenticate the legality of the RFID reader unlike their claims. In addition, this paper proposes an improved matrix-based RFID mutual authentication protocol that can provide the mutual authentication. As a result, the proposed protocol not only can provide strong security and but also guarantee high efficiency because it reduces the communication rounds compare with Lee-Ahn's protocol.

Vehicular Ad hoc Networks have attracted extensive attentions in recent years for their promises in improving safety and enabling other value-added services. Security and privacy are two integrated issues in the deployment of vehicular networks. Privacy-preserving authentication is a key technique in addressing these two issues. We propose a hash chain based authentication protocol that preserves the user privacy. We show that the our scheme can efficiently authenticate users. Name of Our protocol is

Recently, LEE et al. proposed an attribute-based authenticated key agreement protocol over home network, which aimed to support authentication and key agreement between user and home server. However, if the home server is attacked in the protocol, the effects are influenced to the overall home network components severly. Thereby, this paper proposes a new ticket-based authentication protocol using user attributes between user and home devices to solve the problem. The proposed protocol supports the various levels of security to user by diversifying the network accessibility depending on user attribute. Thereby, the protocol could support more secure home network services.

The RFID system is very useful in various fields such as the distribution industry and the management of the material, etc. However, the RFID system suffers from various attacks since it does not have a complete authentication protocol. Therefore, this paper propose the authentication protocol that used key server to resist various attacks including DoS(Denial of Service) attack. For easy implementation, the proposed protocol also uses CRC, RN16 generation function existing in EPCglobal class 1 gen2 protocol. This paper performed security analysis to prove that the proposed protocol is resistant to various attacks. The analytical results showed that the proposed protocol offered a secure RFID system.

Authentication is one of the necessary elements in the network environment. Many researches have detected security vulnerabilities to the existing authentication mechanisms and suggested secure mutual authentication protocols by resolving these vulnerabilities. The representative ones of them are SPMA(Strong Pass Mutual Authentication) and I-SPMA(Improved Strong Password Mutual Authentication). However, these protocols cause a critical problem when the shared secret information is de-synchronized between the server and the client. This paper proposes a revised protocol to resolve the de-synchronization problem. Based on a security assessment on the proposed protocol, we consider the proposed protocol is safer than the previous ones and possible to effectively make a user authentication system mre secure.

Authentication protocols for multi-server architectures have gained momentum in recent times due to advancements in computing technologies and associated constraints. Lu et al. recently proposed a biometrics and smartcards-based authentication scheme for multi-server environment. The careful analysis of this paper demonstrates Lu et al.'s protocol is susceptible to user impersonation attacks and comprises insufficient data. In addition, this paper proposes an improved authentication with key-agreement protocol for multi-server architecture based on biometrics and smartcards. The formal security of the proposed protocol is verified using the widely accepted AVISPA (Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications) tool to ensure that our protocol can withstand active and passive attacks. The formal and informal security analysis, and performance analysis sections determines that our protocol is robust and efficient compared to Lu et al.'s protocol and existing similar protocols.

In this paper, We present that protocols have already proposed an applicable key distribution and authentication protocol based discrete logarithm and prime-factorization problem in PCN(Personal Communication Network) is anaysised. We newly propose identiity-based protocol using smart card. This proposed potocol is that Fiat-Shamir identification scheme and a new key distribution scheme based on Fiat-Shamir identification scheme are joined. Proposed protocol is compared with suiting protocols with respect to security and efficiency to evalate performance, so its calculation is reduced in key distribution and authentication to evaluate performance.

EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is often used as an authentication framework for two-party protocol which supports multiple authentication algorithms known as "EAP method". And PKMv2 in 802.16e networks use EAP as an authentication protocol. However, this framework is not efficient when the EAP peer executing handover. The reason is that the EAP peer and EAP server should re-run EAP method each time so that they authenticate each other for secure handover. This makes some delays, so faster re-authentication method is needed. In this paper, we propose a new design of the PKMv2 framework which provides fast re-authentication. This new framework and usage of the keys which used as a short-term credential bring better performance during handover process.

In this paper, we propose a stable mutual authentication protocol between unmanned combat systems in tactical wireless networks where long distance communications are not always guaranteed due to a poor channel condition. The proposed protocol generates an authentication code using hash collision of arbitrarily selected random data. The authentication requester encrypts and transmits it to the authenticator. They performs authentication by sharing the valid authentication code. We analyze the safety of the proposed method for various attack scenarios.
