Improved ECC-Based Three-Factor Multiserver Authentication Scheme
Open accessAbstract
A multiserver environment can improve the efficiency of mobile network services more effectively than a single server in managing the increase in users. Because of the large number of users, the security of users’ personal information and communication information is more important in a multiserver environment. Recently, Wang et al. proposed a multiserver authentication scheme based on biometrics and proved the security of their scheme. However, we first demonstrate that their scheme is insecure against a known session-specific temporary information attacks, user impersonation attacks, and server impersonation attacks. To solve the security weakness, we propose an improved scheme based on Wang et al.’s scheme. The security of our improved scheme is also validated based on the formal security analysis, Burrows–Abadi–Needham (BAN) logic, ProVerif, and informal security analysis. Security and performance comparisons prove the security and efficiency of our scheme.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
