초록

인터넷을 통한 통신환경은 연결 가능한 사물들 간에 효율적인 통신을 제공한다. 이런 환경에서의 정보통신은 우리에게 편리함을 제공하기는 하나 여러 형태의 보안위협이 도사리고 있는 실정이다. 인터넷을 이용하여 원격으로 접속하여 제공받는 서비스에 존재하는 보안위협 중 대부분은 전송되는 정보의 유출과 클라이언트 서버 간 인증에 대한 손실이다. 2016년 Ahmed 등이 스마트카드를 이용한 안전한 경량급 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다. 그러나 Kang등이 제안한 논문에서 그들이 제안 프로토콜은 identity guessing attack에 취약하고 session key confirmation을 달성할 수 없다는 것을 주장하였다. 본 논문은 Ahmed 등이 제안한 논문의 취약점을 개선하여 더욱 안전하고 효율적인 경량급 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다.

The environment of the Internet provides an efficient communication of the things which are connected. While internet and online service provide us many valuable benefits, online services offered and accessed remotely through internet also exposes us to many different types of security threats. Most security threats were just related to information leakage and the loss of authentication on client-server environment. In 2016, Ahmed et al. proposed an efficient lightweight remote user authentication protocol. However, Kang et al. show that it's scheme still unstable and inefficient. It cannot resist offline identity guessing attack and cannot provide session key confirmation property. Moreover, there is some risk of biometric information's recognition error. In this paper, we propose an improved scheme to overcome these security weaknesses by storing secret data in device. In addition, our proposed scheme should provide not only security, but also efficiency since we only use hash function and XOR operation.
