“…Although the scheme in 13 is shown to resist DoS attacks, its numerous point multiplications can lead to high computation costs. Similarly, the fuzzy extractor based protocol in 63 incurs heavy computation overheads 32 . On the other hand, identity-based schemes have key escrow problems 64 .…”

Advancements in cloud computing, flying ad-hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, artificial intelligence, big data, 5th generation mobile network and internet of things have led to the development of smart cities. Owing to their massive interconnectedness, high volumes of data are collected and exchanged over the public internet. Therefore, the exchanged messages are susceptible to numerous security and privacy threats across these open public channels. Although many security techniques have been designed to address this issue, most of them are still vulnerable to attacks while some deploy computationally extensive cryptographic operations such as bilinear pairings and blockchain. In this paper, we leverage on biometrics, error correction codes and fuzzy commitment schemes to develop a secure and energy efficient authentication scheme for the smart cities. This is informed by the fact that biometric data is cumbersome to reproduce and hence attacks such as side-channeling are thwarted. We formally analyze the security of our protocol using the Burrows–Abadi–Needham logic logic, which shows that our scheme achieves strong mutual authentication among the communicating entities. The semantic analysis of our protocol shows that it mitigates attacks such as de-synchronization, eavesdropping, session hijacking, forgery and side-channeling. In addition, its formal security analysis demonstrates that it is secure under the Canetti and Krawczyk attack model. In terms of performance, our scheme is shown to reduce the computation overheads by 20.7% and hence is the most efficient among the state-of-the-art protocols.

“…Figure 8 shows that if the fingerprint sensor contains the encryption block and transmits the encrypted fingerprint image through communication port, even if a communication port interception hack occurs, the biometric authentication information is encrypted. In this case, actual biometric information hacking does not occur because the fingerprint image cannot be restored without the authentication key [12,19]. Through this, authentication information hacking can be fundamentally blocked.…”

In this paper, a digital personal safe system was proposed with Fast ID Online (FIDO) transaction authentication and multiple decentralized ID (DID) personal authentications based on a home gateway. This individual custody model of personal multiple authentications will be linked to the transaction authentication of digital assets stored in the storage space of the home gateway by the DID of smart devices and the FIDO server for a public platform that excludes digital asset (cryptocurrency [e.g., Bitcoin] or NFT asset) management based on individual private keys and user interaction (user interface and user experience [UI/UX]) at home. To strengthen the security of the proposed digital custody model, it was proposed to apply a local device to which a biometric sensor equipped with an encryption module that can fundamentally block the hacking of biometric information is applied. It is implemented with Verilog for an embedded fingerprint sensor block and decryption program implemented with C.

“…Several other schemes [11][12][13] encountered similar limitations. To address this challenge, several lightweight novel approaches (e.g., [16][17][18][19][20][21]) have been proposed in which the parameter of the shared secret is known only to the sender and receiver. In this technique, the user's authentic identity is encoded into ciphertext, safeguarding their anonymity.…”

Considering the resource limitations of low-cost wireless sensors, there is a growing inclination to utilize cryptographic primitives that are optimized for efficiency, such as symmetric key encryption/decryption and hash functions, when designing authentication schemes. However, designing a lightweight authentication scheme that can meet various security requirements poses a significant challenge. In recent years, numerous lightweight authentication schemes have been proposed in order to address these security needs. Nevertheless, recent research has revealed that many of these schemes exhibit security vulnerabilities and design deficiencies, including challenges related to asynchronization and impractical gateway-node search operations. Due to the inadequate security of existing schemes, this study introduces a novel privacy-preserving authentication scheme that aims to provide adaptive resilience against desynchronization attacks in wireless body area networks (WBANs). The proposed scheme utilizes lightweight cryptographic modules to optimize efficiency. To ensure user anonymity, the Chinese Remainder Theorem technique is employed, whereas forward secrecy and resistance to desynchronization attacks are achieved through the use of one-way hash chains and serial numbers, respectively. Through extensive analysis and comparisons, the proposed scheme is demonstrated to strike a fine balance between security and efficiency.
