Security is a major challenge in modern IoT based healthcare monitoring systems. It provides many benefits such as critical patient monitoring, remote diagnosis at anytime, anywhere. Hence, security of this data is essential when the healthcare professionals access it. Also, while storing the patients record; it must be kept safe from misuse and modification of data as other devices can easily track it. To prevent this type of threats, we have proposed a mutual authentication protocol to enhance health care security and to resist vulnerable attacks. The proposed scheme used Challenge response protocol for the authentication purpose and the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol is used for generation of the session key generation. The security analysis of the proposed scheme shows that the scheme is more secure and resist all the major attacks as compared to other schemes. The Formal verification of this schema also ensures that it resists most probable attacks in this system. The result of the proposed authentication scheme shows that it has low computational and communicational load.

A chaotic map-based mutual authentication scheme with strong anonymity is proposed in this paper, in which the real identity of the user is encrypted with a shared key between the user and the trusted server. Only the trusted server can determine the real identity of a user during the authentication, and any other entities including other users of the system get nothing about the user’s real identity. In addition, the shared key of encryption can be easily computed by the user and trusted server using the Chebyshev map without additional burdensome key management. Once the partnered two users are authenticated by the trusted server, they can easily proceed with the agreement of the session key. Formal security analysis demonstrates that the proposed scheme is secure under the random oracle model.

The authentication is an essential concern in the cloud environment to restrict the unauthorized users to retrieve the files from cloud server. Moreover, authentication mechanisms are used to prevent illegal access of resources over insecure channel. Thus proposed work provides the strong and efficient authentication process in cloud computing environment by chebyshev polynomial based chaotic maps Diffie Hellman property. The proposed authentication mechanism does not disclose the identity of the user to CSP. Moreover proposed authentication mechanism enables mutual authentication, Identity management, and session-key agreement. The Proposed mechanism of security analysis includes the enabling mutual authentication and key agreement, restricting the impersonation attack, man in the middle attack and replay attack.

Multi Server

Aiming at the security problems of authentication in multi-server environments, a novel three-factor authentication scheme for multi-server environments of industrial Internet is proposed. After verifying password and face, a temporary session key is established for the user and server. Then the user obtains the permission of application services and accessing resources. In process of verifying password, hash function is used to hide password. The method of verifying face is the face recognition based on singular value decomposition. During the key agreement phase, only four dot multiplication operations based on elliptic curve cryptography is used to realize one-time key for cryptograph transmission and mutual authentication. Through security analysis and performance comparison, the proposed scheme has stronger robustness, higher security, better convenience and less computation cost than other similar schemes, and has high application value for multi-server environments of industrial Internet.

An anonymous authentication scheme for roaming services in global mobility networks allows a mobile user visiting a foreign network to achieve mutual authentication and session key establishment with the foreign-network operator in an anonymous manner. In this work, we revisit He et al.’s anonymous authentication scheme for roaming services and present previously unpublished security weaknesses in the scheme: (1) it fails to provide user anonymity against any third party as well as the foreign agent, (2) it cannot protect the passwords of mobile users due to its vulnerability to an offline dictionary attack, and (3) it does not achieve session-key security against a man-in-the-middle attack. We also show how the security weaknesses of He et al.’s scheme can be addressed without degrading the efficiency of the scheme.

Client Server Architecture

Client-server computing is the analytical development of compatible programming with significant supposition and the detachment of a massive program into its fundamental parts ("modules"), which can create the chance for extra enhancement, inconsiderable improvement, and prominent maintainability. In client-server computing, total extensive modules don't need to be accomplished within the similar memory space totally but can execute independently on a suitable hardware and software platform according to their behavior. The user authentication is the dominant constraint for client-server computing that limits the illegitimate right of entry into the main workstation. This research is mainly focused on the design of a robust authentication scheme for client-server architecture computing. It carries some additional features like security, virtualization, user's programs security, individuality supervision, integrity, control access to server and authentication. The proposed background also delivers the characteristic supervision, mutual authentication, and establishment of secure session key among users and the remote server.

Mutual Authentication Protocol

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that is very popular due to the simplicity in its technology and high adaptability in a variety of areas. The simplicity in the technology, however, comes with a caveat – RFID tags have severe resource restrictions, which make them vulnerable to a range of security attacks. Such vulnerability often results in the loss of privacy of the tag owner and other attacks on tags. Previous research in RFID security has mainly focused on authenticating entities such as readers / servers, which communicate with the tag. Any security mechanism is only as strong as the encryption keys used. Since RFID communication is wireless, critical messages such as key exchange messages are vulnerable to attacks. Therefore, we present a mutual authentication protocol that relies on independent generation and dynamic updates of encryption keys thereby removing the need for key exchange, which is based on the concept of gene mutation and transfer. We also present an enhanced version of this protocol, which improves the security offered by the first protocol. The novelty of the proposed protocols is in the independent generation, dynamic and continuous updates of encryption keys and the use of the concept of gene mutation / transfer to offer mutual authentication of the communicating entities. The proposed protocols are validated by simulation studies and security analysis.

Vehicle Networks

The rapid development of intelligent networked vehicles (ICVs) has brought many positive effects. Unfortunately, connecting to the outside exposes ICVs to security threats. Using secure protocols is an important approach to protect ICVs from hacker attacks and has become a hot research area for vehicle security. However, most of the previous studies were carried out on V2X networks, while those on in-vehicle networks (IVNs) did not involve Ethernet. To this end, oriented to the new IVNs based on Ethernet, we designed an efficient secure scheme, including an authentication scheme using the Scalable Service-Oriented Middleware over IP (SOME/IP) protocol and a secure communication scheme modifying the payload field of the original SOME/IP data frame. The security analysis shows that the designed authentication scheme can provide mutual identity authentication for communicating parties and ensure the confidentiality of the issued temporary session key; the designed authentication and secure communication scheme can resist the common malicious attacks conjointly. The performance experiments based on embedded devices show that the additional overhead introduced by the secure scheme is very limited. The secure scheme proposed in this article can promote the popularization of the SOME/IP protocol in IVNs and contribute to the secure communication of IVNs.

Mutual Authentication Protocol

Many peer-to-peer security protocols proposed for wireless communications use one-time shared secrets for authentication purposes. This paper analyses online update mechanisms for one-time shared secrets. A new type of attack against update mechanisms, called desynchronisation attack, is introduced. This type of attack may lead to a permanent denial of service condition. A case study demonstrates the effectiveness of desynchronisation attacks against a security protocol for mobile satellite communications. A new mutual authentication protocol for satellite communications, incorporating a resynchronisation capability, is proposed to counter the disruptive effects of desynchronisation attacks. The new protocol has an esynchronisation phase that is initiated whenever desynchronisation is suspected. Thus, the possibility of causing permanent denial of service conditions by mounting desynchronisation attacks is eliminated. A security analysis of the proposed protocol establishes its resistance against attacks like replay attacks, dictionary attacks, and desynchronisation attacks.
