Abstract
-
It is widely recognized that the use of the existing authentication protocols only provides for one way authentication. In this paper we present a new model for mutual authentication protocol, which is applicable both in general secure network environments, and as a specific example the Smart card scenario. Our new protocol represents a significant technical advantage over existing similar protocols regarding performance, accuracy, dependability, and degree of redundancy. In particular, this is the first time the Blum-Blum-Shub generators have been utilized to maintain a highly secure authentication protocol environment.;Our protocol could be used in a distributed workstation environment, or by customers making financial transactions over the Internet. It could be implemented in hardware as an add-on board or as a co-processor; or as embedded communications, operating systems, or application software. We present a software implementation of our Blum-Blum-Shub authentication protocol.;The primary application we chose to exhibit our protocol is the Smart card. In doing so, we cover the hardware and software involved in implementation of our architecture based upon current and future technology. In addition, we plan to discuss the general issues of our protocol in future papers.
