Abstract In this research, we have tried to first focus on the previous work and after getting familiar with the base papers, focus on the main paper. In this paper, we try to determine the security problems in the proposed protocols and present appropriate solutions for them. One of the subjects studied by security and encryption researchers is the matter of authentication and key agreement in SIP. Recently, an authentication and key agreement protocol in SIP has been presented in a scheme. In this paper, it was proven that their presented protocol is vulnerable to the replay attack. Such that if an attacker resends the messages sent on the public channel back to the server, the server does not notice the duplicate messages and proceeds with the session process. Also, their protocol is not resistant to the temporary parameter disclosure attack and it is possible for the attacker to discover the session key in case the temporary parameters are disclosed. Furthermore, user anonymity does neither provide re-registration prevention with the real user ID nor early detection. In this paper, we have tried to present a protocol which prevents replay and parameter disclosure attacks.

Perfect Forward Secrecy

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) plays a paramount role in various fields, such as military, aerospace, reconnaissance, agriculture, and many more. The development and implementation of these devices have become vital in terms of usability and reachability. Unfortunately, as they become widespread and their demand grows, they are becoming more and more vulnerable to several security attacks, including, but not limited to, jamming, information leakage, and spoofing. In order to cope with such attacks and security threats, a proper design of robust security protocols is indispensable. Although several pieces of research have been carried out with this regard, there are still research gaps, particularly concerning UAV-to-UAV secure communication, support for perfect forward secrecy, and provision of non-repudiation. Especially in a military scenario, it is essential to solve these gaps. In this paper, we studied the security prerequisites of the UAV communication protocol, specifically in the military setting. More importantly, a security protocol (with two sub-protocols), that serves in securing the communication between UAVs, and between a UAV and a Ground Control Station, is proposed. This protocol, apart from the common security requirements, achieves perfect forward secrecy and non-repudiation, which are essential to a secure military communication. The proposed protocol is formally and thoroughly verified by using the BAN-logic (Burrow-Abadi-Needham logic) and Scyther tool, followed by performance evaluation and implementation of the protocol on a real UAV. From the security and performance evaluation, it is indicated that the proposed protocol is superior compared to other related protocols while meeting confidentiality, integrity, mutual authentication, non-repudiation, perfect forward secrecy, perfect backward secrecy, response to DoS (Denial of Service) attacks, man-in-the-middle protection, and D2D (Drone-to-Drone) security.

Smart grid is a modernized electrical grid. It is used to collect information about behaviors of suppliers and consumers and improve the efficiency, reliability, and economics of electricity. Recently, advanced metering infrastructure is proposed as a critical part of the smart grid. The security of advanced metering infrastructure is special importance for smart grid. In order to achieve data confidentiality, privacy, and authentication in advanced metering infrastructure, a lightweight authentication and key agreement scheme is proposed in this article. The scheme provides mutual authentication, key agreement, key refreshment, and multicast mechanism which can prevent various attacks. Furthermore, we analyze the security and performance of the scheme. The analysis shows that the proposed scheme is suitable for smart grid.

Enhance Efficiency

Agriculture plays an important role for many countries. It provides raw materials for foodand provides large employment opportunities for people in the country, especially for countrieswith a dense population. To enhance agriculture productivity, modern technology such as wirelesssensor networks (WSNs) can be utilized to help in monitoring important parameters in thwagricultural field such as temperature, light, soil moisture, etc. During the monitoring process, ifsecurity compromises happen, such as interception or modification of the parameters, it may leadto false decisions and bring damage to agriculture productivity. Therefore, it is very important todevelop secure authentication and key agreement for the system. Recently, Ali et al. proposed anauthentication and key agreement scheme using WSNs for agriculture monitoring. However, it failsto provide user untraceability, user anonymity, and session key security; it suffers from sensor nodeimpersonation attack and perfect forward secrecy attack; and even worse has denial of service as aservice. This study discusses these limitations and proposes a new secure and more efficientauthentication and key agreement scheme for agriculture monitoring using WSNs. The proposedscheme utilizes dynamic pseudonym identity to guarantee user privacy and eliminates redundantcomputations to enhance efficiency.
