Indeed, the authors prefer that the system erroneously reject a pattern when it does not meet a number of predetermined correspondence criteria. In this work, after discussing existing techniques, we propose a new algorithm to reduce the false rejection rate during the authentication-using fingerprint. This algorithm extracts the minutiae of the fingerprint with their relative orientations and classifies them according to the different classes already established;then, make the correspondence between two templates by simple probabilities calculations from a deep neural network. The merging of these operations provides very promising results both on the NIST4 international data reference and on the SOCFing database.展开更多

It has already been applied to a wide range of applications, from financial services and supply chain management to voting systems and identity verification. An organization must verify its candidates before selecting them. Choosing an unqualified candidate can ruin an organization’s reputation. In this paper, a blockchain-based academic certificate authentication system will be used to ensure authenticity and make the assertion of the decentralized system secure. However, the system will generate, authenticate and make corrections on academic certificates. Ultimately, some blockchain-based authentication systems already exist, they can’t correct any errors that occur during generation. A blockchain-based certificate authentication system was built using blockchain technology. Where admin could generate, authenticate and correct the certificate if necessary. The admin can also check how many times a certificate has been modified. Other users can only check the authenticity of the certificates. We’re using two blockchains to enable corrections. Blockchain technology can successfully implement a certificate authentication system. This system will eliminate doubts about the authenticity of certificates, provide fast responses, and ensure reliable and secure storage. The proposed system will help in many ways, such as providing a user-friendly university admission, and smooth job hiring process, etc. In conclusion, our proposed system can permanently eradicate certificate forgeries and create and promote trust in society.展开更多

Despite providing significant ease for users, keyless entry systems have become more susceptible to appealing attacks like relay attacks and critical fob hacking.

Direct anonymous attestation(DAA) is an attractive cryptographic scheme that provides an elegant balance between platform authentication and anonymity. However, because of the low-level computing capability and limited transmission bandwidth in UAV, the existing DAA schemes are not suitable for NC-UAV communication systems. In this paper, we propose an enhanced DAA scheme with mutual authentication(MA-DAA scheme), which meets the security requirements of NC-UAV communication systems. The proposed MA-DAA scheme, which is based on asymmetric pairings, bundles the identities of trusted platform module(TPM) and Host to solve the malicious module changing attacks. Credential randomization, batch proof and verification, and mutual authentication are realized in the MA-DAA scheme. The computational workload in TPM and Host is reduced in order to meet the low computation and resource requirements in TPM and Host.The entire scheme and protocols are presented,and the security and efficiency of the proposed MA-DAA scheme are proved and analyzed.Our experiment results also confirm the high efficiency of the proposed scheme.展开更多

Unfortunately, a key has many disadvantages, for example, the key can be forgotten or stolen, and can be easily cracked. Nowadays, authentication systems using biometric technology have become more prevalent because of the advantages over password-based authentication systems. In this article, several biometfic authentication models are presented, upon which most biometric authentication systems are based. Biometric authentication systems based-on these models provide high security for access control in non-face-to-face environment such as e-commerce, over open network.展开更多

Due to the unique identification number of the RFID tag, the possible privacy threats are information leakage of a tag, traceability of the consumer, denial of service attack, replay attack and impersonation of a tag, etc. There are a number of challenges in providing privacy and security in the RFID tag due to the limited computation, storage and communication ability of low-cost RFID tags. Many research works have already been conducted using hash functions and pseudorandom numbers. As the same random number can recur many times, the adversary can use the response derived from the same random number for replay attack and it can cause a break in location privacy. This paper proposes an RFID authentication protocol using a static identifier, a monotonically increasing timestamp, a tag side random number and a hash function to protect the RFID system from adversary attacks. The proposed protocol also indicates that it requires less storage and computation than previous existing RFID authentication protocols but offers a larger range of security protection. A simulation is also conducted to verify some of the privacy and security properties of the proposed protocol.展开更多

However, these methods are unable to protect the applications of Android against anti-reverse engineering and the codes of such applications face the risk of being obtained or modified, which are always the first step for further attacks. In this paper, a security enhancement system with online authentication （SeSoa） for Android APK is proposed, in which the code of Android application package （APK） can be automatically encrypted. The encrypted code is loaded and run in the Android system after being successfully decrypted. Compared with the exiting software protecting systems, SeSoa uses online authentication mechanism to ensure the improvementof the APK security and good balance between security and usability.展开更多

However, information is communicated over an open channel. An attacker may intercept, replay, or modify this information. Therefore, many authentication schemes are proposed to provide secure communication for TMIS. Recently, Yu et al proposed a privacy-preserving authentication scheme in the Internet of Medical Things(IoMT)-enabled TMIS environments. They emphasize that their scheme is resistant to various attacks and ensures anonymity. Unfortunately, this paper demonstrates that Yu et al's scheme is vulnerable to impersonation attacks, replay attacks, and tracking attacks and cannot mutually authenticate. To overcome the shortcomings of Yu et al's scheme, we mainly improve the authentication and key agreement process and propose a corresponding improved scheme. We also compare the improved scheme with several existing authentication schemes in terms of security and computational efficiency.展开更多

文摘Security threats to smart and autonomous vehicles cause potential consequences such as traffic accidents,economically damaging traffic jams,hijacking,motivating to wrong routes,and financial losses for businesses and governments.Smart and autonomous vehicles are connected wirelessly,which are more attracted for attackers due to the open nature of wireless communication.One of the problems is the rogue attack,in which the attacker pretends to be a legitimate user or access point by utilizing fake identity.To figure out the problem of a rogue attack,we propose a reinforcement learning algorithm to identify rogue nodes by exploiting the channel state information of the communication link.We consider the communication link between vehicle-to-vehicle,and vehicle-to-infrastructure.We evaluate the performance of our proposed technique by measuring the rogue attack probability,false alarm rate(FAR),mis-detection rate(MDR),and utility function of a receiver based on the test threshold values of reinforcement learning algorithm.The results show that the FAR and MDR are decreased significantly by selecting an appropriate threshold value in order to improve the receiver’s utility.

文摘The traditional authentication system is based on the secret key, and is mainly based on public key infrastructure （PKI）. Unfortunately, a key has many disadvantages, for example, the key can be forgotten or stolen, and can be easily cracked. Nowadays, authentication systems using biometric technology have become more prevalent because of the advantages over password-based authentication systems. In this article, several biometfic authentication models are presented, upon which most biometric authentication systems are based. Biometric authentication systems based-on these models provide high security for access control in non-face-to-face environment such as e-commerce, over open network.

文摘System-wide information management(SWIM)is a complex distributed information transfer and sharing system for the next generation of Air Transportation System(ATS).In response to the growing volume of civil aviation air operations,users accessing different authentication domains in the SWIM system have problems with the validity,security,and privacy of SWIM-shared data.In order to solve these problems,this paper proposes a SWIM crossdomain authentication scheme based on a consistent hashing algorithm on consortium blockchain and designs a blockchain certificate format for SWIM cross-domain authentication.The scheme uses a consistent hash algorithm with virtual nodes in combination with a cluster of authentication centers in the SWIM consortium blockchain architecture to synchronize the user’s authentication mapping relationships between authentication domains.The virtual authentication nodes are mapped separately using different services provided by SWIM to guarantee the partitioning of the consistent hash ring on the consortium blockchain.According to the dynamic change of user’s authentication requests,the nodes of virtual service authentication can be added and deleted to realize the dynamic load balancing of cross-domain authentication of different services.Security analysis shows that this protocol can resist network attacks such as man-in-the-middle attacks,replay attacks,and Sybil attacks.Experiments show that this scheme can reduce the redundant authentication operations of identity information and solve the problems of traditional cross-domain authentication with single-point collapse,difficulty in expansion,and uneven load.At the same time,it has better security of information storage and can realize the cross-domain authentication requirements of SWIM users with low communication costs and system overhead.KEYWORDS System-wide information management(SWIM);consortium blockchain;consistent hash;cross-domain authentication;load balancing.
文摘The use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags may cause privacy violation of users carrying an RFID tag. Due to the unique identification number of the RFID tag, the possible privacy threats are information leakage of a tag, traceability of the consumer, denial of service attack, replay attack and impersonation of a tag, etc. There are a number of challenges in providing privacy and security in the RFID tag due to the limited computation, storage and communication ability of low-cost RFID tags. Many research works have already been conducted using hash functions and pseudorandom numbers. As the same random number can recur many times, the adversary can use the response derived from the same random number for replay attack and it can cause a break in location privacy. This paper proposes an RFID authentication protocol using a static identifier, a monotonically increasing timestamp, a tag side random number and a hash function to protect the RFID system from adversary attacks. The proposed protocol also indicates that it requires less storage and computation than previous existing RFID authentication protocols but offers a larger range of security protection. A simulation is also conducted to verify some of the privacy and security properties of the proposed protocol.

文摘Wireless medical sensor networks(WMSNs)play a significant role in increasing the availability of remote healthcare systems.The vital and physiological data of the patient can be collected using the WMSN via sensor nodes that are placed on his/her body and then transmitted remotely to a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis.The protection of the patient’s privacy and their data from unauthorized access is a major concern in such systems.Therefore,an authentication scheme with a high level of security is one of the most effective mechanisms by which to address these security concerns.Many authentication schemes for remote patient monitoring have been proposed recently.However,the majority of these schemes are extremely vulnerable to attacks and are unsuitable for practical use.This paper proposes a secure three-factor authentication scheme for a patient-monitoring healthcare system that operates remotely using a WMSN.The proposed authentication scheme is formally verified using the Burrows,Abadi and Needham’s(BAN)logic model and an automatic cryptographic protocol verifier(ProVerif)tool.We show that our authentication scheme can prevent relevant types of security breaches in a practical context according to the discussed possible attack scenarios.Comparisons of the security and performance are carried out with recently proposed authentication schemes.The results of the analysis show that the proposed authentication scheme is secure and practical for use,with reasonable storage space,computation,and communication efficiency.

文摘Android OS provides such security mechanisms as application signature, privilege limit and sandbox to protect the security of operational system. However, these methods are unable to protect the applications of Android against anti-reverse engineering and the codes of such applications face the risk of being obtained or modified, which are always the first step for further attacks. In this paper, a security enhancement system with online authentication （SeSoa） for Android APK is proposed, in which the code of Android application package （APK） can be automatically encrypted. The encrypted code is loaded and run in the Android system after being successfully decrypted. Compared with the exiting software protecting systems, SeSoa uses online authentication mechanism to ensure the improvementof the APK security and good balance between security and usability.

文摘The mobile cellular network provides internet connectivity for heterogeneous Internet of Things(IoT)devices.The cellular network consists of several towers installed at appropriate locations within a smart city.These cellular towers can be utilized for various tasks,such as e-healthcare systems,smart city surveillance,traffic monitoring,infrastructure surveillance,or sidewalk checking.Security is a primary concern in data broadcasting,particularly authentication,because the strength of a cellular network’s signal is much higher frequency than the associated one,and their frequencies can sometimes be aligned,posing a significant challenge.As a result,that requires attention,and without information authentication,such a barrier cannot be removed.So,we design a secure and efficient information authentication scheme for IoT-enabled devices tomitigate the flaws in the e-healthcare system.The proposed protocol security shall check formally using the Real-or-Random(ROR)model,simulated using ProVerif2.03,and informally using pragmatic discussion.In comparison,the performance phenomenon shall tackle by the already result available in the MIRACL cryptographic lab.
文摘Telecare Medical Information System(TMIS) can provide various telemedicine services to patients. However, information is communicated over an open channel. An attacker may intercept, replay, or modify this information. Therefore, many authentication schemes are proposed to provide secure communication for TMIS. Recently, Yu et al proposed a privacy-preserving authentication scheme in the Internet of Medical Things(IoMT)-enabled TMIS environments. They emphasize that their scheme is resistant to various attacks and ensures anonymity. Unfortunately, this paper demonstrates that Yu et al's scheme is vulnerable to impersonation attacks, replay attacks, and tracking attacks and cannot mutually authenticate. To overcome the shortcomings of Yu et al's scheme, we mainly improve the authentication and key agreement process and propose a corresponding improved scheme. We also compare the improved scheme with several existing authentication schemes in terms of security and computational efficiency.
