Abstract

Recently, along with the widespread use of various mobile devices in e-commerce, a variety of RFID systems are integrated in mobile devices. Poorly designed security RFID systems will bring a great security risks. This paper reviews the existing RFID system security mechanism and focuses on the digital library RFID security protocol. Security assumptions are changed in the new application environment, leading to a new attack on the original agreement. A security protocol with the mutual authentication function is designed on the basis of the original protocol. The new protocol is compatible with the original protocol, but against new attacks. Formal analysis shows that the new protocol is in accordance with established safety goals.

Design and analysis of security protocol for RFID without back-end database

Yongsheng Hao, Shao-jie Ren

RFID security protocol is one of the most important ways to solve security problems of RFID system and it is the focus of current research. This article summarized and classified the common security protocols, then proposed a new mutual authentication protocol without the back-end database which aimed at the actual need of military applications and proved the correctness of the new protocol by GNY logic. Safety analysis shows that the new protocol can effectively protect privacy, prevent tracking and avoid synchronization attack and such common problems. The protocol has not only high security, but also the obvious advantage of flexibility.

Design of Secure Authentication Protocol Based on Radio Frequency Identification

LI Cui,SHI Lin

With the extensive application of Radio Frequency Identification(RFID),the contradiction between its security and computation is serious.On this background,the security defects and cost of the main RFID secure authentication protocols are analyzed.On this basis,a new authentication protocol is promoted with higher security and lower cost.Its security is verified via the strand space model,which proves that the mutual authentication of reader and tag can be realized safety and reliability.The analysis results show that the protocol is resistible to attacks such as spoofing attack,eavesdrop attack,replay attack,type flaw attack,tracking and so on,and also provides perfect forward secrecy,which has a lower computation,and is suitable for low-cost RFID system.

An Enhanced Mutual Key Agreement Protocol for Mobile RFID-enabled Devices

Kambombo Mtoga, Eun‐Jun Yoon

Mobile RFID is a new application that uses a mobile phone as an RFID reader with wireless technology and provides a new valuable service to users by integrating RFID and ubiquitous sensor network infrastructures with mobile communication and wireless Internet. Whereas the mobile RFID system has many advantages, privacy violation problems on the reader side are very concerning to individuals and researchers. Unlike in regular RFID environments, where the communication channel between the server and reader is assumed to be secure, the communication channel between the backend server and the RFID reader in the mobile RFID system is not assumed to be safe. Therefore it has become necessary to devise a new communication protocol that secures the privacy of mobile RFID-enabled devices. Recently, Lo et al. proposed a mutual key agreement protocol that secures the authenticity and privacy of engaged mobile RFID readers by constructing a secure session key between the reader and server. However, this paper shows that this protocol does not meet all of the necessary security requirements. Therefore we developed an enhanced mutual key agreement protocol for mobile RFID-enabled devices that alleviates these concerns. We further show that our protocol can enhance data security and provide privacy protection for the reader in an unsecured mobile RFID environment, even in the presence of an active adversary.

Design and analysis of the light-weight mutual authentication protocol for RFID

Huixian Li

In order to solve the weakness in security and privacy and the poor performance of the existing RFID authentication protocols,a Hash-based mutual authentication protocol for RFID is proposed and its security is proved by using the provable security model,with the privacy and security features of the proposed protocol analyzed.Compared with several RFID authentication protocols with the similar structure,the proposed protocol can effectively solve the privacy and security issues of the RFID system and has significant performance advantages,because it greatly reduces the amount of storage and computation of tags,and particularly improves the search efficiency of the server database.

RFID Secure Protocol Based on Random Sequence

Yiju Zhan

This paper proposes a new RFID secure protocol which uses the mechanism that the random sequence stored in the tag produces the pseudo random number to replace the random value generator.With both tag-to-reader and reader-to-tag authentication,the protocol can prevent the RFID system from some malicious attack,such as tracking,spoofing,forgery,and replay attack.It reduces the tag designing cost while ensuring the security grade.After setting up an idealized protocol model,a process of formal analysis of this protocol is presented and the security is proved theoretically by using the BAN logic.
