Provable Secure and Efficient Digital Rights Management Authentication Scheme Using Smart Card Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography

الملخص EN

Since the concept of ubiquitous computing is firstly proposed by Mark Weiser, its connotation has been extending and expanding by many scholars.

In pervasive computing application environment, many kinds of small devices containing smart cart are used to communicate with others.

In 2013, Yang et al.

proposed an enhanced authentication scheme using smart card for digital rights management.

They demonstrated that their scheme is secure enough.

However, Mishra et al.

pointed out that Yang et al.’s scheme suffers from the password guessing attack and the denial of service attack.

Moreover, they also demonstrated that Yang et al.’s scheme is not efficient enough when the user inputs an incorrect password.

In this paper, we analyze Yang et al.’s scheme again, and find that their scheme is vulnerable to the session key attack.

And, there are some mistakes in their scheme.

To surmount the weakness of Yang et al.’s scheme, we propose a more efficient and provable secure digital rights management authentication scheme using smart card based on elliptic curve cryptography.
