A Secure and Private RFID Authentication Protocol under SLPN Problem

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNSC,volume 7645))

Abstract

Authentication is one of the prominent features of RFID system. As wireless link between the tag and the reader in an RFID system is vulnerable against active adversary, ample research has been done in this area. In this paper, we present a novel, efficient and privacy preserving mutual authentication protocol of HB-family to meet the demand of low-cost tags. It is composed of Subspace Learning Parity from Noise problem (SLPN) and pseudo-inverse matrix properties; both of them significantly minimize the cost in terms of computation and hardware requirements. We compare our protocol with other existing HB and non-HB authentication protocols according to their construction and achievements of security and privacy attributes.
