Show allAuthentication Techniques That Work Well With Mobile and Distributed Systems
Abstract
In the modern technological world, the existence of minuscule devices that are able to exchange data and build networks is necessary for the completion of numerous activities. In many of these applications, the confidentiality and dependability of the information that is being transferred are of the utmost importance. The purpose of this article is to offer two novel ways for authenticating short conversations that are encrypted, with the end objective of fulfilling the requirements of mobile and ubiquitous software. We take advantage of the fact that the message that has to be verified must also be encrypted in order to propose a set of authentication codes that are not only provably secure but also surpass every other message authentication code that has been published in the past. The recommended procedures make use of encryption techniques to provide an additional layer of protection, with the goal of enhancing the performance of the conventional authentication primitives.
