  • Lightweight Anonymous Authentication Protocols for RFID Systems
    IEEE ACM Transactions on Networking, 2017
    Co-Authors: Min Chen, Shigang Chen, Yuguang Fang
    Abstract:

    Radio-frequency identification RFID technologies are making their way into retail products, library books, debit cards, passports, driver licenses, car plates, medical devices, and so on. The widespread use of tags in traditional ways of deployment raises a privacy concern: they make their carriers trackable. To protect the privacy of the tag carriers, we need to invent new mechanisms that keep the usefulness of tags while doing so Anonymously. Many tag applications, such as toll payment, require Authentication. This paper studies the problem of Anonymous Authentication. Since low-cost tags have extremely limited hardware resource, we propose an asymmetric design principle that pushes most complexity to more powerful RFID readers. With this principle, we develop a lightweight technique that generates dynamic tokens for Anonymous Authentication. Instead of implementing complicated and hardware-intensive cryptographic hash functions, our Authentication protocol only requires tags to perform several simple and hardware-efficient operations such as bitwise XOR, one-bit left circular shift, and bit flip. The theoretical analysis and randomness tests demonstrate that our protocol can ensure the privacy of the tags. Moreover, our protocol reduces the communication overhead and online computation overhead to $O1$ per Authentication for both tags and readers, which compares favorably with the prior art.

  • an efficient Anonymous Authentication protocol for rfid systems using dynamic tokens
    International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems, 2015
    Co-Authors: Min Chen, Shigang Chen
    Abstract:

    Radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies are widely used in many applications. The widespread use of tags in traditional ways of deployment raises a privacy concern: They make their carriers track able. This paper studies the problem of Anonymous Authentication. Due to resource constraints of low-cost tags, we develop a new technique to generate dynamic tokens for Anonymous Authentication by following an asymmetric design principle that pushes most complexity to more powerful RFID readers. Instead of implementing complicated cryptographic hash functions, our Authentication protocol only requires tags to perform several simple hardware-efficient operations such as bitwise XOR, one-bit left circular shift and bit flip. Moreover, our protocol reduces the communication overhead and online computation overhead to O(1) per Authentication for both tags and readers, which compares favorably with the prior art.

  • EAAP: Efficient Anonymous Authentication With Conditional Privacy-Preserving Scheme for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
    IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2017
    Co-Authors: Maria Azees, Pandi Vijayakumar, Lazarus Jegatha Deboarh
    Abstract:

    Providing an efficient Anonymous Authentication scheme in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) with low computational cost is a challenging issue. Even though, there are some existing schemes to provide Anonymous Authentication, the existing schemes suffer from high computational cost in the certificate and the signature verification process, which leads to high message loss. Therefore, they fail to meet the necessity of verifying hundreds of messages per second in VANETs. In our scheme, we propose an efficient Anonymous Authentication scheme to avoid malicious vehicles entering into the VANET. In addition, the proposed scheme offers a conditional tracking mechanism to trace the vehicles or roadside units that abuse the VANET. As a result, our scheme revokes the privacy of misbehaving vehicles to provide conditional privacy in a computationally efficient way through which the VANET entities will be Anonymous to each other until they are revoked from the VANET system. Moreover, the proposed scheme is implemented and the performance analysis shows that our scheme is computationally efficient with respect to the certificate and the signature verification process by keeping conditional privacy in VANETs.

  • Efficient and Secure Anonymous Authentication With Location Privacy for IoT-Based WBANs
    IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, 2020
    Co-Authors: Pandi Vijayakumar, Mohammad S. Obaidat, Maria Azees, Sk Hafizul Islam, Neeraj Kumar
    Abstract:

    Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based wireless body area networks (WBANs) play an important role in modern medical systems for patient-health monitoring. WBANs have the capability to collect real-time biological information from the patients’ body using intelligent sensors and then send the collected information to the remote doctors or medical experts using the Internet. In recent years, numerous Anonymous Authentication schemes were proposed to provide security in WBANs. However, many of these schemes are not computationally efficient during Anonymous Authentication. Moreover, the previous schemes did not provide location privacy for both doctors and patients. In order to overcome these limitations, in this article, we propose an efficient and secure Anonymous Authentication framework with location privacy preservation for IoT-based WBANs. The comprehensive analysis section shows that the proposed scheme overcomes the security weaknesses in the existing schemes and also provides low computation cost during Anonymous Authentication.

  • Blockchain-Based Anonymous Authentication With Selective Revocation for Smart Industrial Applications
    IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, 2020
    Co-Authors: Yanqi Zhao, Lianhai Wang, Mohsen Guizani
    Abstract:

    Personal privacy disclosure is one of the most serious challenges in smart industrial applications. Anonymous Authentication is an effective solution to protect personal privacy. However, the existing Anonymous credential protocols are not perfectly suitablefor smart industrial environments such as smart vehicles in the sense that the credential revocation issue is not well-solved. In this article, we propose a Blockchain-based Anonymous Authentication with Selective revocation for Smart industrial applications (BASS) for smart industrial applications supporting attribute privacy, selective revocation, credential soundness, and multishowing-unlinkability. Specifically, an efficient selective revocation mechanism is proposed based on dynamic accumulators and the signature algorithm due to Pointcheval and Sanders as the overlay of the BASS. According to the diverse demands of credential authorities, BASS can selectively provide revocation of credentials or revocation of users. We extend BASS from single-attribute privacy to multiattribute privacy as well. Finally, we implement a prototype to evaluate the cryptographic core primitives of BASS by deploying smart contracts in Ethereum to demonstrate the validity of BASS in smart industrial applications.
