In this article, the authors have proposed a secure two-factor remote user authentication and session key agreement protocol. As they have shown in the presented scheme, is precise and secure according to both formal and informal security analysis. For formal security analysis, they have applied BAN (Burrows-Abadi-Needham) logic which certifies that the presented scheme provides the amenity of mutual authentication and session key agreement safely. The informal security verification has shown that the proposed scheme is more vigorous against various sort of cruel threats. Moreover, the authors have simulated the presented scheme using broadly accepted AVISPA tool, whose simulation results make sure that the protocol is not dangerous from active and passive attacks together with replay and man-in-the-middle attacks. In addition, the performance evaluation and the security comparison have revealed that the presented scheme gives strong security as well as better complexity in the context of smart card memory requirement, communication cost and computation cost.

Recently, Kumari et al., pointed out that Chang et al.’s scheme “Untraceable dynamic-identity-based remote user authentication scheme with verifiable password update” has several drawbacks and does not provide any session key agreement. Hence, they proposed an improved remote user authentication scheme with key agreement based on Chang et al.’s protocol. They claimed that the improved method is secure. However, we found that their improvement still has both anonymity breach and smart card loss password guessing attack which cannot be violated in the ten basic requirements advocated for a secure identity authentication using smart card by Liao et al. Thus, we modify their protocol to encompass these security functionalities which are needed in a user authentication system using smart card.
