A SURVEY ON ENCRYPTION ALGORITHMS AND PROTOCOLS IN SMART CARD FOR USER CENTRIC OWNERSHIP MODEL

Abstract

User Centric Ownership Model (UCOM) enables the smart card users to install/delete application they prefer in their smart card. UCOM provides smart card users to have any number of applications installed on their smart cards. Though UCOM provides flexibility for the smart card users, it lacks centralized authority. UCOM creates major problem if the user has more than one application installed in his/her smart card.  Smart card may contain applications from the provider that may interrupt the proper working of the neighbor applications.  Smart card user may hack his way to a known aboutapplication through a smart card simulator. Thus, there is no security for an application in the smart card for UCOM model. This survey paper includes background and motivation about the available encryption algorithms for smart cards such as RSA, ECC, AES, DES, T-DES, ECDSA and the smart card protocols which can be used to overcome the problem of security for the applications in smart card for UCOM model
