Certificateless Authentication

As the aging population of society continues to intensify, the series of problems brought about by aging is becoming more and more serious. Because the health problem of the elderly brings many social problems, people have paid close attention to it. Fortunately, as a typical smart healthcare system, wireless body area networks (WBANs) present quit nice medical care for people, especially the aged. However, personal health information is very sensitive. But, the common communication channel is used in WBANs and any malicious entity can initiate a security attack on WBANs. To ensure secure communication and privacy-preserving which are the premise of the sound development of WBANs, an improved and efficient certificateless authentication scheme with conditional privacy-preserving is proposed in this paper on the basis of analyzing the most recent presented certificateless authentication scheme for WBANs. The proposed scheme also provides batch authentication to decrease authentication and communication cost. A rigid security proof demonstrates that our proposed scheme resists every type of security attack and can provide condition privacy-preserving. The performance analysis shows that our proposed scheme has some advantages in computation and communication cost.

Recently, medical and healthcare associations have gradually begun to use the Internet of Things and wireless sensor networks to monitor, collect data, and use wireless body area networks (WBANs) to communicate with patients. However, due to the characteristics of wireless networks that can freely access data on public channels, WBANs face some problems in the security and privacy protection. At the same time, some authentication schemes for wireless body area networks have also been proposed. In this paper, we carefully analyze Fotouhi et al.’s authentication scheme for wireless body area networks in health-care IoT and find that Fotouhi et al.’s scheme is vulnerable to several weaknesses. The main shortcoming of Fotouhi et al.’s scheme is that it takes up too much storage space of each entity during the registration and authentication phase. To overcome the shortcomings of Fotouhi et al.’s scheme, we propose an improved scheme. In our improved scheme, each entity will store less data than Fotouhi et al.’s scheme in the registration phase. Furthermore, we make the gateway node store as little data as possible by adding some key information to the transmitted messages in the authentication phase of the improved scheme. These measures can greatly save a lot of storage space and improve efficiency. We also investigate the security of the improved scheme in informal analysis and formal analysis.
