“…In 2006, Lee et al [7] proposed an enhancement to improve Zhu and Ma's authentication scheme for wireless networks. In 2009, Chang et al [8] analyzed Lee et al's scheme [7] and pointed out that Lee et al's scheme still suffers from forgery attack and also proposed an improvement. In 2014, Kuo et al [9] showed that Chang et al's scheme cannot ensure anonymity for mobile users and proposed an improvement.…”

Abstract:With the rapid growth of network technologies, users are used to accessing various services with their mobile devices. To ensure security and privacy in mobility networks, proper mechanisms to authenticate the mobile user are essential. In this paper, a mobility network authentication scheme based on elliptic curve cryptography is proposed. In the proposed scheme, a mobile user can be authenticated without revealing who he is for user anonymity, and a session key is also negotiated to protect the following communications. The proposed mobility network authentication scheme is analyzed to show that it can ensure security, user anonymity, and convenience. Moreover, Burrows-Abadi-Needham logic (BAN logic) is used to deduce the completeness of the proposed authentication scheme.

“…To ensure security of mobility networks, many authentication protocols are proposed [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. In 2004, Zhu and Ma proposed an authentication scheme with anonymity for wireless environments based on the hash function and smart cards [5].…”

“…However, in [3], it was shown that the Zhu et al's scheme and Lee and et al's scheme fails to provide user anonymity, and Wu, Lee and Tsaur proposed an enhanced scheme by providing an effective remedy. Independently, in [4], Chang et al showed that Lee et al's scheme cannot provide user anonymity under the forgery attack and also proposed an enhanced authentication scheme. Unfortunately, Youn et al found that the scheme of [4] fails to achieve user anonymity under four attack strategies [5].…”

“…In order to do so, the authentication scheme should have ability to resist various kinds of attacks or any forgery attempts. For accomplishing these goals, many authentication and key agreement schemes have been proposed with anonymity for roaming services in global mobile networks [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. Particularly, in 2004, Zhu et al proposed a wireless security protocol based on smart card and featuring user anonymity [1].…”

User mobility is a feature that raises many issues related to security. One of them is the disclosure of a mobile user's real identity during the authentication process, or the other procedures specific to global mobile networks (GLOMONET). Such disclosure allows an unauthorized third-party to track the mobile user's movements and current whereabouts. In this article, we address some problems of mutual authentication and key agreement with user anonymity for GLOMONET. Recently, Qi et al. proposed such scheme, which is claimed to be a slight modification of He et al.'s protocol based on smart card. However, we reveal that both the schemes still suffer from certain weaknesses which have been overlooked previously and thus they cannot achieve desired security.

SUMMARYSeamless roaming in the global mobility network (GLOMONET) is highly desirable for mobile users, although their proper authentication is challenging. This is because not only are wireless networks susceptible to attacks, but also mobile terminals have limited computational power. Recently, some authentication schemes with anonymity for the GLOMONET have been proposed. This paper shows some security weaknesses in those schemes. Furthermore, a lightweight and provably secure user authentication scheme with anonymity for the GLOMONET is proposed. It uses only symmetric cryptographic and hash operation primitives for secure authentication. Besides, it takes only four message exchanges among the user, foreign agent and home agent. We also demonstrate that this protocol enjoys important security attributes including prevention of various attacks, single registration, user anonymity, user friendly, no password/verifier table, and use of one-time session key between mobile user and foreign agent. The security properties of the proposed protocol are formally validated by a model checking tool called AVISPA. Furthermore, as one of the new features in our protocol, it can defend smart card security breaches.
