Abstract

This paper presents a deniable authenticated key agreement protocol. This protocol can provide an authenticated session key while the sender and the receiver can deny their involvement in such a protocol if the protocol is executed successfully. Then both can deny their transmitted messages protected by the authenticated session key. If this protocol fails, no authenticated session key can be established and no protected messages can be transmitted. The protocol can be proved secure against key compromise impersonation attack. The protocol employs a new method to isolate a session key from confirmation keys.

On The Deniability of Ma et al.'s Deniable Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol

Meng-Hui Lim, Sang-Gon Lee

A deniable authentication protocol enables the protocol participants to authenticate their respective peers, while able to deny their participation after the protocol execution. In 2007, Ma et al. have proposed a chameleon-based deniable authenticated key agreement protocol. However, we discover that this scheme is in fact undeniable due to some flaws in it’ s protocol design. In this paper, we prove the opposite of their claims and discuss the undeniability of the scheme in detail.

A novel certificateless deniable authentication protocol.

Chunhua Jin, Chunxiang Xu, Xiaojun Zhang +2 more

Abstract: Deniable authenticated protocol is a new and attractive protocol compared to the traditional authentication protocol. It allows the appointed receiver to identify the source of a given message, but not to prove the identity of the sender to a third party even if the appointed receiver is willing to reveal its private key. In this paper, we first define a security model for certificateless deniable authentication protocols. Then we propose a non-interactive certificateless deniable authentication protocol, by combining deniable authentication protocol with certificateless cryptography. In addition, we prove its security in the random oracle model.

Security Analysis of a Suite of Deniable Authentication Protocols

Haibo Tian, Xiaofeng Chen, Baodian Wei +1 more

A deniable authentication protocol allows a sender to transfer an authenticated message to a receiver, and the receiver cannot prove to a third party about the source of the message. In 2006, Zhu et al. analyzed deniable authentication protocols proposed by Deng et al. in 2001, which were based on a protocol proposed by Aumann et al. in 1998. In this paper, we show that the modified protocols by Zhu et al. suffer from a Byzantine attack when two sessions run concurrently. We also suggest methods to solve the problem.

Privacy-Enhancing Authenticated Key Agreement Protocols Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem

Hong Lei

Authenticated key agreement protocol is designed to provide pair of parties communicating over an insecure network with a secure session key.However,most of the existing authenticated key agreement protocols are not designed for protecting privacy.We emphasize user's privacy properties in network services,in particular we stress anonymity and deniability.We specify the desired security properties of privacy-enhancing authentication key agreement protocols,i.e.mutual authentication,key control,key confirmation,session-key confidentiality,known-key security,forward secrecy,anonymity of user,forward anonymity of user,unlinkability,deniability.Based on elliptic curve cryptosystem we also propose a protocol which satisfies all the desired security properties.

Universal Encrypted Deniable Authentication Protocol.

Zhenfu Cao

The notion of deniable authentication protocol was introduced in 1998 by Dwork et al. [11] and Aumann and Rabin [1, 2] independently. As a new cryptographic authentication protocol, a deniable authentication protocol enables an intended receiver to identify the source of a given message without being able to prove the identity of the sender to a third party. Over the past years, many deniable authentication protocols have been proposed. In this paper, we would like to present a universal encrypted deniable authentication protocol from any public key encryption scheme. Provided that the public key encryption scheme is secure, a secure deniable authentication protocol can be directly derived.

A New Deniable Authentication Protocol with Anonymous Fair Protections

Shin‐Jia Hwang, Chien-Hung Chao

Intended receiver and deniability properties are two basic properties satisfied by deniable authentication protocols. Recently, a deniable authentication protocol with sender protection is proposed to protect the right of the real sender. In other words, the sender can prove that he/she really sent the message to guard against circumvention by some receivers. However, the honest receiver still suffers the circumventing risk due to the senders' deniability. If the sender sent a deniable authenticated message to the innocent receiver and claimed that the message was generated by receivers. Then the receiver has nothing to convince the others that he/she is innocent. To provide fair protection and anonymity both for senders and receivers, a new deniable authentication protocol with anonymous fair protection is proposed.
