Abstract EN
The concept of two-factor multiserver authentication protocol was developed to avoid multiple number of registrations using multiple smart-cards and passwords.
Recently, a variety of two-factor multiserver authentication protocols have been developed.
It is observed that the existing RSA-based multiserver authentication protocols are not suitable in terms of computation complexities and security attacks.
To provide lower complexities and security resilience against known attacks, this article proposes a two-factor (password and smart-card) user authentication protocol with the RSA cryptosystem for multiserver environments.
The comprehensive security discussion proved that the known security attacks are eliminated in our protocol.
Besides, our protocol supports session key agreement and mutual authentication between the application server and the user.
We analyze the proof of correctness of the mutual authentication and freshness of session key using the BAN logic model.
The experimental outcomes obtained through simulation of the Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA) S/W show that our protocol is secured.
We consider the computation, communication, and storage costs and the comparative explanations show that our protocol is flexible and efficient compared with protocols.
In addition, our protocol offers security resilience against known attacks and provides lower computation complexities than existing protocols.
Additionally, the protocol offers password change facility to the authorized user.
