Abstract

As low-cost RFIDs with limited resources will dominate most of the RFID market, it is imperative to design lightweight RFID authentication protocols for these low-cost RFIDs. However, most of existing RFID authentication protocols either suffer from some security weaknesses or require costly operations that are not available on low-cost tags. In this paper, we analyze the security vulnerabilities of a lightweight authentication protocol recently proposed by Li et al. [4], and then propose a new lightweight protocol to improve the security.
