    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 found many security and privacy problems along RFID technology. In recent years, many researchers are interested in RFID authentication protocols and their security flaws. In this paper, we analyze two of the newest RFID authentication protocols which proposed by Fu et al. and Li et al. from several security viewpoints. We present different attacks such as desynchronization attack and privacy analysis over these protocols.Comment: 17 pages, 2 figures, 1 table, International Journal of Distributed and Parallel system

    Designated Verifier Threshold Proxy Signature Scheme without Random Oracles

    In a (t,n)(t,n) designated verifier threshold proxy signature \, scheme, an original signer can delegate his/her signing power to nn proxy signers such that any tt or more out of nn proxy signers can sign messages on behalf of the original signer but t−1t-1 or less of the proxy signers cannot generate a valid proxy signature. Of course, the signature is issued for a designated receiver and therefore only the designated receiver can validate the proxy signature. In this paper, we propose a new designated verifier threshold proxy signature scheme and also show that the proposed scheme has provable security in the standard model. The security of proposed scheme is based on the GBDHGBDH assumption and the proposed scheme satisfies all the security requirements of threshold proxy signature schemes

    A New Efficient Authenticated ID-Based Group Key Agreement Protocol

    Group key agreement (GKA) protocols Play a main role in constructing secure multicast channels. These protocols are algorithms that describe how a group of parties communicating over a public network can gain a common secret key. ID-based authenticated group key agreement (AGKA) cryptosystems based on bilinear pairings are update researching subject because of the simplicity of their public key management and their efficiency. The key agreement protocol is a good way to establish a common session key for communication. But in a group of member’s communication, we not only need to establish a common session key, but also need to concern the member changing situation. In this paper we propose a protocol based on Weil pairing, ID-based authentication and complete ternary tree architecture. We show that our protocol satisfies all known security requirements, and therefore it is more secure and efficient than the compared group key exchange protocols that we discuss in this article
