Analysis of Security Vulnerabilities and Improvement Measures for ECC-Based RFID Authentication Protocols
This study analyzed the security architecture of an RFID authentication protocol using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), identified potential vulnerabilities, and proposed improvement measures. Our study enhanced security by introducing random number combination-based signature verification, session-independent key derivation, dual hash binding, and an authentication delay mitigation structure. Simulation results showed the proposed model achieved 100% replay detection rate, kept authentication delay within 12%, and improved computational complexity by approximately 18%.
