Abstract

To ensure secure access to the data held in internet of things, many lightweight authentication schemes have been developed using approaches such as symmetric cryptography or hashing operations. Although these schemes achieve forward key secrecy and user anonymity, de-synchronization is a major problem in these protocols. As such, many other schemes have been presented to address this pertinent security challenge. However, some of these schemes are still susceptible to smart card loss attacks among others. In this paper, stochastic security ephemeral generation protocol for 5G enabled internet of things is presented. It is demonstrated to offer mutual authentication and session key agreement. It is also robust against packet replays, eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. In terms of performance, it has the lowest computation and communication overheads.
