Abstract

As industries aggressively deploy Radio Frequency IDentification application systems, the user privacy invasion and system security threats are increasingly concernd by individuals and organizations. Recently several hash-based mutual authentication schemes have been proposed to resolve security-related problems. However, previous schemes either suffer from security loopholes or have system efficiency problem for identity match process. In this paper, the security flaws of two recently proposed hash-based authentication schemes are analyzed at first. Based on this analysis, we identify the security and privacy criterions for the authentication process of RFID systems, and propose a new mutual authentication scheme to eliminate possible security flaws and enhance privacy protection to the owner of an object with RFID tag attached on it. In addition, we develop an efficient identity match and retrieval mechanism to relieve the heavy computation load of traditional match scheme between received tag identity and records in backend database of RFID systems.
