  Abstract

In this paper, we propose two authentication exchange schemes which combine public-key-based mutual authentication with a Diffie-Hellman key derivation exchange. The security of key exchange of the proposed schemes depends on the discrete logarithm problem. The security of the entity authentication depends on that of the signature mechanism to be used in the proposed scheme. In comparison with the Kerberos, X.509 exchanges, and ISO 3-way authentication protocol, the proposed schemes are not only simple and efficient, but also are resistant to the full range of replay and interception attacks.
