In a remote user authentication scheme, a remote server verifies whether a login user is genuine and trustworthy, and also for mutual authentication purpose a login user validates whether the remote server is genuine and trustworthy. Several remote user authentication schemes using the password, the biometrics, and the smart card have been proposed in the literature. However, most schemes proposed in the literature are either computationally expensive or insecure against several known attacks. In this paper, we aim to propose a new robust and effective password-based remote user authentication scheme using smart card. Our scheme is efficient, because our scheme uses only efficient one-way hash function and bitwise XOR operations. Through the rigorous informal and formal security analysis, we show that our scheme is secure against possible known attacks. We perform the simulation for the formal security analysis using the widely accepted AVISPA (Automated Validation Internet Security Protocols and Applications) tool to ensure that our scheme is secure against passive and active attacks. Furthermore, our scheme supports efficiently the password change phase always locally without contacting the remote server and correctly. In addition, our scheme performs significantly better than other existing schemes in terms of communication, computational overheads, security, and features provided by our scheme.

In 2011, Lee et al. analyzed the security weaknesses of Hsiang et al.s scheme and proposed a security dynamic ID-based multi-server remote user authentication scheme. They claimed that their protocol is secure and efficient. However, we observe that Lee et al.'s scheme is still vulnerable to stolen smart card attack, malicious server attack. To remedy these security weaknesses, we propose an improved dynamic ID-based remote user authentication scheme for multi-server environment. Besides, security analysis and performance analysis show that compared with other remote user authentication schemes, the proposed scheme is more secure and possesses lower computation cost. As a result, the proposed scheme seems to be more practical for users with portable mobile devices in multi-server environment.

Mere Addition

The authors review the biometrics-based user authentication scheme proposed by An in 2012. The authors show that there exist loopholes in the scheme which are detrimental for its security. Therefore the authors propose an improved scheme eradicating the flaws of An’s scheme. Then a detailed security analysis of the proposed scheme is presented followed by its efficiency comparison. The proposed scheme not only withstands security problems found in An’s scheme but also provides some extra features with mere addition of only two hash operations. The proposed scheme allows user to freely change his password and also provides user anonymity with untraceability.
