“…Elliptic curve cryptography is a public key cryptosystem [22] based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite a field that relies on the believed difficulty of the elliptic curve discrete logarithm for its security. It accepted as an alternative to cryptosystems such as RSA and ElGamal over finite fields.…”

Past few years, the mobile technology and location based services have experienced a great increment in number of its users. The privacy issues related to these services are becoming main concerns because of the leakage of users' private information and contents. To prevent revelation of private information, many researchers have proposed several secure and authentication schemes which apply various technologies to provide integral security properties, such as symmetric encryption, digital signature, timestamp, etc. Unfortunately, some of these schemes still exhibit security and efficiency issues. In this research paper, we proposed an efficient and secure anonymous communication for location based service using asymmetric cryptography scheme over the wireless system was attempted missing some system detail. We also proposed the prevent user private information and secure communication by asymmetric cryptography scheme. We solved the wireless communication problem in A3 algorithm such as eavesdropping and this problem solved by asymmetric cryptography scheme because of its robustness against this type of attack by providing mutual authentication make the system more secure. Finally, performance and cost analysis show our scheme is more suitable for lowpower and resource limited wireless system and thus availability for real implementation. According to our security analysis and performance, we can prove that our proposed & Imran Memon asymmetric cryptography scheme is able to improve wireless communication system security and enhance efficiency in comparison to previous schemes.

We propose a grouping proof scheme to help the nursing staff on their final check automatically before a medicine round. During the medicine round, even though their RFID reader is offline, our method can generate multiple proofs for each patient and help the medical caretakers follow the five-right policy to correctly administer the drugs to their patients. Besides, because our scheme enables a nurse to target specific group tags during a medicine round, it is able to generate proofs even when the illegitimate tags are on site. We prove that our generated proof is reliable because it can resist most security threats and guarantee the integrity of the proof. Besides, our proposed scheme guarantees anonymity on the RFID tags, so the patients’ sensitive information and location privacy can be protected. Last, we run a simulation to show that compared with the related methods our proposed scheme requires the least transmission time and the lowest computation loads to generate a proof.

“…In [11], the authors aimed at flexibility and presented a hardware support that featured five prime field-based NIST ECC curves. Optimized hardware/software co-design approaches were evaluated and proposed by the authors in [12], which accelerate ECC calculations for resource constrained applications. Further ECC implementations were presented, for example, by the authors in [13]- [15].…”

RFID-based and NFC-based applications can be found, apart from others, in security critical application fields, such as payment or access control. For this purpose, EllipticCurve Cryptography (ECC) is commonly used hardware integrated in resource constrained applications in order to provide authenticity and data integrity. On the one hand, specialized crypto hardware approaches provide good performance and consume low power. On the other hand, they often lack flexibility, caused, for example, by hardware integrated protocols and cryptographic parameters.Here we present a flexible and lightweight ECC-based authentication solution that takes into account resource constrained systems. This technique permits to shift parts of the computational intense ECC calculations from the resource constrained device to the authentication terminal. By employing a security controller with a small multi-purpose hardware acceleration core, high computation speed is achieved and a maximum level of flexibility is maintained at the same time.We demonstrate the feasible implementation of the proposed technique by means of an Android-based reader / smart card system, which represent a prime example of contemporary powerconstrained and performance-constrained embedded systems. An ECC-based authentication can be carried out on average within 25 ms and checked against a back-end server within 66 ms in a secured manner. Thus, a secured and flexible one-way authentication system is given that shows high performance. This solution can be utilized in a wide variety of application fields, such as anti-counterfeiting, where flexibility and low chip prices are essential.
