An Improvement on A Three-Party Authentication Key Exchange Protocol Using Elliptic Curve Cryptography
Zuowen Tan · Journal of Convergence Information Technology · 2010
The authentication key exchange protocol enables communication participants to authenticate each other and agree on the session key over an insecure public network. Recently, a three-party authentication key exchange protocol based on Elliptic curve cryptograph is proposed. In this paper, we improve the three-party encrypted key exchange protocol by bilinear maps. The proposed threeparty authentication key exchange protocol is provable secure under Computational Diffie-Hellman assumptions in the standard model. Furthermore, the novel protocol is more efficient.
