Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an expansion of Internet-based sensing, processing and networking. As a key technique of the IoT, the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) had a prosperous development in the past decade. Security schemes were also proposed to ensure secure RFID authentication. This paper analyzes security weaknesses found in previous schemes and proposes a new RFID authentication scheme using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). Security analysis results show that the proposed scheme can meet security requirements of RFID authentication while requiring no extra cost in terms of performance.
