Till now, few work has been done to analyze the performances of joint fingerprint embedding and decryption schemes. In this paper, the security of the joint fingerprint embedding and decryption scheme proposed by Kundur et al. is analyzed…

An authenticated encryption scheme allows messages to be encrypted and authenticated simultaneously. In 2003, Ma and Chen proposed such a scheme with public verifiability. That is, in their scheme the receiver can efficiently prove to a…

Yeh et al. recently have proposed a mutual authentication protocol based on EPC Class-1 Gen.-2 standard [1]. They have claimed that their protocol is secure against adversarial attacks and also provides forward secrecy. In this paper we…

The Internet of Medical Things has revolutionized the healthcare industry, enabling the seamless integration of connected medical devices and wearable sensors to enhance patient care and optimize healthcare services. However, the rapid…

Cashless payment systems offer many benefits over cash, but also have some drawbacks. Fake terminals, skimming, wireless connectivity, and relay attacks are persistent problems. Attempts to overcome one problem often lead to another - for…

Anonymous access authentication schemes provide users with massive application services while protecting the privacy of users' identities. The identity protection schemes in 3G and 4G are not suitable for 5G anonymous access authentication…

Secure communication is a matter of genuine concern that includes means whereby entities can share information without a third party's interception. Key agreement protocols are one of the common approaches in which two or more parties can…

With challenges and limitations associated with security in the fintech industry, the rise to the need for data protection increases. However, the current existing passwordless and password-based peer to peer transactions in online banking…

The majority of systems rely on user authentication on passwords, but passwords have so many weaknesses and widespread use that easily raise significant security concerns, regardless of their encrypted form. Users hold the same password for…

In this paper, we analyze four authentication protocols of Bindu et al., Goriparthi et al., Wang et al. and H\"olbl et al.. After investigation, we reveal several weaknesses of these schemes. First, Bindu et al.'s protocol suffers from an…

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is appearing as a favorite technology for automated identification, which can be widely applied to many applications such as e-passport, supply chain management and ticketing. However, researchers have…

The majority of current web authentication is built on username/password. Unfortunately, password replacement offers more security, but it is difficult to use and expensive to deploy. In this paper, we propose a new mutual authentication…

Text-based password schemes have inherent security and usability problems, leading to the development of graphical password schemes. However, most of these alternate schemes are vulnerable to spyware attacks. We propose a new scheme, using…

For many years, the pay-TV system has attracted a lot of users. Users have recently expressed the desire to use mobile TV or mobile payment via anonymous protocols. The mobile users have also received their services over cellular…

Recently, Yang and Tan proposed a certificateless key exchange protocol without pairing, and claimed their scheme satisfies forward secrecy, which means no adversary could derive an already-established session key unless the full user…

Identification schemes are interactive protocols typically involving two parties, a prover, who wants to provide evidence of his or her identity and a verifier, who checks the provided evidence and decide whether it comes or not from the…

Since the demise of the password was predicted in 2004, different attempts in industry and academia have been made to create an alternative for the use of passwords in authentication, without compromising on security and user experience.…

Although smartcards are widely used, secure smartcard interoperability has remained a significant challenge. Usually each manufacturer provides a closed environment for their smartcard based applications including the microchip, associated…

Security and Privacy concerns in Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology particularly RFID Card, is a wide research area which have attracted researchers for over a decade. Authenticating users at the Card end of the RFID…

The increasingly widespread use of smartcards for a variety of sensitive applications, including digital signatures, creates the need to ensure and possibly certify the secure interoperability of these devices. Standard certification…
