“…Later, Zhang et al [28] presented a remote mutual authentication scheme based on chaotic maps for UANs. Based on the architecture of underwater wireless sensor networks, Kumar et al [29] designed an authentication technique that establishes a session key for safe communication. In 2024, Tomović et al [30] proposed a Blockchain-based Key Management Protocol for UANs, and Wang et al [31] proposed a deep learning and random forest algorithm-based dynamic trust model for UANs.…”

“…It is shown that Zhang et al's scheme [28] cannot provide secure mutual authentication and establish the session key, and it fails to resist offline password guessing attacks and user impersonation attacks. In Kumar et al's scheme [29], the session key between the user and the Onshore Base Station cannot achieve perfect forward secrecy and may suffer from ID guessing attacks. On the other hand, their scheme cannot resist sensor node capture attacks and does not establish the session key between the user and the sensor node.…”

A secure and effective authentication and communication scheme between users and underwater sensors plays an important role in improving the detection and utilization of marine resources in underwater acoustic networks (UANs). However, due to the energy limitations and susceptibility to capture of underwater sensors and gateways, it is necessary to design a lightweight authentication protocol that can resist capture of sensors and gateways during attacks. In this paper, a lightweight authentication protocol for UANs based on the Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) and chaotic map is proposed. We used the advantages of PUF to resist sensors and gateways being captured in attacks and the chaotic map to achieve lightweight authentication because the computational cost of the chaotic map is almost one-third that of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). Additionally, we used the formal security proof in the random oracle model to prove the security of the proposed scheme. Our scheme was more secure and efficient compared with some other related schemes in terms of security and performance requirements, and the proposed scheme is suitable for UANs.

“…In the study by Kaidarova et al [20], the authors focused on privacy and security in underwater communication systems. Kumar [29] proposed work focusing purely on sensor node communication, and used NS3 to perform simulations. The results revealed that their proposed scheme was able to cope with the conditions of the environment.…”

“…Pressure sensors, moving sensors, moving relay sensors, moving sink nodes, and AUVs are used in communication scenarios [28]. The ranges of nodes are increased underwater, creating massive problems for marine vehicles that are not able to effectively communicate and transfer data [29,30]. Relay and cooperation schemes can improve network performance and deliver data by means of advanced and fair mechanisms [31][32][33][34].…”

This paper proposes a Cooperative-Relay Neighboring-Based Energy-Efficient Routing (CR-NBEER) protocol with advanced relay optimization for MUSN. The utilization of the relay nodes, among all other sensor nodes, makes it possible to achieve node-to-node deployment. The proposed method focuses only on cooperation and relay optimization schemes. Both schemes have previously been implemented, and thus the proposed method represents the extended version of the Neighboring-Based Energy-Efficient Routing (NBEER) protocol. Path loss, end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio, and energy consumption parameters were considered as part of the performance evaluation. The average performance was revealed based on simulations, where the overall average EED of Co-UWSN was measured to be 35.5 ms, CEER was measured to be 26.7 ms, NBEER was measured to be 27.6 ms, and CR-NBEER was measured to be 19.3 ms. Similarly, the overall EC of Co-UWSN was measured to be 10.759 j, CEER was measured to be 8.694 j, NBEER was measured to be 8.309 j, and CR-NBEER was measured to be 7.644 j. The overall average PDR of Co-UWSN was calculated to be 79.227%, CEER was calculated to be 66.73.464%, NBEER was calculated to be 85.82%, and CR-NBEER was calculated to be 94.831%. The overall average PL of Co-UWSN was calculated at 137.5 dB, CEER was calculated at 230 dB, NBEER was calculated at 173.8 dB, and CR-NBEER was calculated at 79.9 dB. Based on the simulations and evaluations, it was observed that the cooperation and relay optimization scheme outperformed previous schemes.

SummaryCloud computing is an emerging paradigm that enables on‐demand data storage without considering the local infrastructure limitations of end‐users. The extensive growth in number of servers, resources, and networks intensifies security and privacy concerns in clouds. This necessitates secure mutual authentication and key agreement mechanism to verify the legitimacy of participating entities. In accordance, several authentication protocols have been designed to authenticate end‐users over insecure channels. This article presents security analysis of recent protocols that claim to render security and privacy features. We demonstrate that Kaur et al.'s protocol is vulnerable to replay attack, Dharminder et al.'s protocol is prone to user traceability and known session‐specific temporary information (KSSTI) attacks, and Bouchaala et al.'s protocol is prone to replay and KSSTI attacks. To withstand the aforementioned attacks, we propose an enhanced protocol based on fuzzy verifier and elliptic curve cryptography for clouds. Our protocol safeguards against security attacks while providing privacy functionalities. The security analysis is illustrated under real‐or‐random model, and correctness is verified under the Scyther security verification tool. Finally, comparative analysis with existing protocols shows that our protocol delivers robust security with reasonable computational and communication overheads than state‐of‐the‐art protocols.
