โœฆ Synopsis


Yang and Shieh proposed a timestamp-based password authentication scheme. Chan and Cheng proved that it is insecure. In this paper, we will give a further cryptanalysis of the scheme, and give an easier attack on it. Finally, we will propose an improved scheme that can withstand both of the attacks. Compared to other authentication schemes, this improved scheme allows the host to authenticate a user only with his login request. The host need not keep any secret or information of the user.

Recently, Fan proposed an enhanced scheme to improve the security of Yang-Shieh's timestamp-based password authentication scheme. The enhanced scheme can withstand the attacks presented by Chan, Cheng and Fan. In this paper, we show that the enhanced scheme is still insecure. An intruder is able to

In 1999, Yang and Shieh proposed a timestamp-based password authentication scheme with smart cards. However, Chan and Cheng showed that it was insecure because the scheme was vulnerable to the forged login attack. In this paper, we propose a modified Yang-Shieh scheme to enhance security. Our modifi
