Abstract

The security attributes of three provable secure ID-based authenticated key agreement protocols are analyzed,and an enhanced ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol is presented based on the previous work.The new scheme achieves most of the known security attributes,such as known-key secrecy,key-compromise impersonation resilience,unknown key-share resilience,no-key control and message independence,especially the PKG-forward secrecy and known session-specific temporary information secrecy attributes,meanwhile keeping with the nice efficiency.

A one-round ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol with enhanced security

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

Authenticated key agreement protocol is used to set up the session key and establish secure channel for network communication in the open environment. So far, great deals of identity-based protocols have been proposed to provide robust mutual authentication and key establishment in the two-party setting. Majority of the existing identity-based key agreement protocols require expensive bilinear pairing operation and only provide limited security attributes. Therefore, such protocols are unsuitable for real-world applications that require stronger sense of secrecy. In this paper, we first analysis some of the schemes proposed recently, and then present a one-round ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol with enhanced security attributes, which doesn't need pairing operation and achieves most of the required security attributes, such as known-key secrecy, perfect forward secrecy, PKG Forward Secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience and no key control. In addition, it captures the enhanced security attributes-Known session-specific temporary key information secrecy.

An efficient and secure one-round authenticated key agreement protocol without pairings

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

Two-Party Authenticated key agreement protocol is essential for setting up the common session key for parties to establish secure channel for network communication in the open environment. Most of proposed schemes require expensive bilinear pairing operation and only provide limited security attributes. So such protocols are unsuitable for real-world applications that require stronger sense of secrecy. In this paper, we first analysis two schemes recently proposed by Cao etc., and then present a one-round ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol with more desired security attributes, which need no pairing operations while still achieve nice computational efficiency. These security attributes include known-key secrecy, perfect forward secrecy, PKG forward secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience and no key control. Moreover, it captures the enhanced security attributes known session-specific temporary key information secrecy, which means that even the ephemeral secret key were compromised, the adversary can hardly acquire the agreed session key.

Secure and Efficient Two-Party Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol from Certificateless Public Key Encryption Scheme

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

As the fundamental building block for secure communication in the open network, authenticated key agreement protocols are usually constructed in the public key setting. Certificateless public key cryptography combines the advantage of the identity-based public key cryptography (ID-PKC) and the traditional PKI. In this paper, we present a secure and efficient two-party authenticated key agreement protocol based on the efficient certificateless public key encryption scheme due to Cheng and Comley. Security analysis shows that it achieves perfect forward secrecy, PKG forward secrecy and almost all the other known security attributes for authenticated key agreement protocol, such as known-key secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience, known session-specific temporary information security, message independence and no key control. Compared to other comparable schemes, it is more secure and has nice efficiency.

Improvement of identity-based authenticated key agreement protocol

Chi Xu, Wen Fang Zhang, Zhen Hu

The security of a recently proposed ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol was analyzed,and an enhanced ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol is presented based on the previous work. a malicious PKG (private key generator) can still obtain all of the agreed session keys, that is, it doesn't provide PKG-forward secrecy in escrowless mode. Aiming at the security flaws of an existing ID-based key agreement Protocol and a key agreement Protocol for multi-trustdomain proposed based on the new variant mode of ID- Base public key infrastrueture(PKI), an improved scheme is proposed. The new scheme can avoid excessive power of KGC to make up the security flaws in the original protocols, which has a higher level of security. The new schemes have many properties such as equal contribution; non-key control; against man-in-middle attack; etc.

Analysis and improvement of an ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol

Xiao Guo-zhen

The security of a recently proposed ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol was analyzed. Although it is provably secure in the standard model, a malicious PKG （private key generator） can still obtain all of the agreed ses-sion keys, that is, it doesn’t provide PKG-forward secrecy in escrowless mode. To satisfy the security requirement in es-crowless mode, an improved version of the protocol was presented and it was proved to be a secure authenticated key agreement in the standard model. Results show that it provides perfect forward secrecy and PKG-forward secrecy.

An Enhanced Two-Party Key Agreement Protocol in the Key Escrow Mode

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

In an open and distributed environment, authenticated key agreement protocol, as an important cryptographic primitive, is used to authenticate entities and establish session key in order to provide secure communications. Key escrow is essential in situations where confidentiality and audit trail are legal requirements, whilst perfect forward secrecy and known session-specific temporary information secrecy attributes are desirable to provide stronger security. In this paper, we give a cryptanalysis on the scheme due to Wang et al., which is based on the identity-based encryption scheme proposed by Gentry (Eurocrypt'06), and then present an enhanced secure two-party identity-based authenticated key agreement protocol. The new proposed protocol achieves most of the required security attributes and can be used properly in the escrow mode. Security analysis shows that it achieves the attributes of known-key secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience and no key control. In addition, it captures the perfect forward secrecy and known session-specific temporary information secrecy attributes.
