Authentication Phase Clause Samples
The Authentication Phase clause defines the process by which parties verify their identities before accessing a system or entering into a contractual relationship. Typically, this involves the use of credentials such as passwords, digital certificates, or multi-factor authentication methods to ensure that only authorized individuals can proceed. By establishing clear requirements for identity verification, this clause helps prevent unauthorized access and protects sensitive information, thereby reducing the risk of fraud or security breaches.
Authentication Phase. The authentication phase aims to mutually authenticate both of the sensor nodes and the remote user. To communicate the health-related data to the remote user, each sensor must execute the authentication process. The proposed scheme supports two cases of sensors authentication. The first case when the sensor nodes are not in the same location as the remote user, and in the second case, they are in the same location. The proposed authentication and key agreement scheme is as follows (see Figure 3): The sensor node initiates the authentication phase, it generates a random nonce N on 8 bytes and sends a message composed of the generated nonce N, its masked identity MSIdi, and a h(MSIdi, N, Idi) to the remote user. Upon receiving the message by the remote user, the message is verified by checking whether received hash is equal to the computed hash. If the matching is successful, the remote user generates a random nonce M on 8 bytes, else it is an authentication failure. The remote user checks the location of the sensor node. If the remote user cannot reach the sensor node in his Wi-Fi covered area, then: Case ‘not in the area’: The remote user transmits to the gateway node a message composed by the masked identity of the sensor node MSIdi, the received nonce N, the nonce M, and a h(MSIdi, N, M). Upon receiving the message by the gateway node, it verifies the message by checking whether the received hash is equal to the computed hash. If the check is successful, the gateway node generates a random nonce S on 8 bytes, and applies an XOR with the received nonce N: (T = N S). Then, it sends to the remote user a message composed of the received nonces N and M, the computed value T and a h(M, ▇▇▇, S), otherwise the authentication fails. When the remote user receives the message, the nonce value S is computed as follows: (S = N T) and the message is verified by checking whether the received hash is equal to the computed hash. If the check is successful, the remote user also generates a random nonce W on 8 bytes, applies an XOR with value S as:
Authentication Phase. Consider an UAV that has been assigned to collect field information from a particular region. In each region, a MEC operator selected by the USP helps the UAV in transfer- ring/receiving packets. In this phase of the proposed scheme, both the UAV and USP authenticate each other and establish a session key for secure communication. In this regard, the MEC operator helps them in exchanging the communication messages. The detailed description of the phase is as follows:
Authentication Phase. When user U wishes to login to the server, it must inserts its smart card to a card reader and inputs its username and password PW . Then the smart card and the server cooperate to perform the following steps as shown in Fig1. (Username, PW , Smartcard (R, a)) Server (s) 1. b ∈ Z * , V = bR + h(username)P , W = bh(h(PW a) username)P REQUEST (username,V ,W )
Authentication Phase. We can think of the authentica- tion phase of Li et al.’s scheme as a two-pass protocol. The individual steps are outlined below: Step 1: N IN : tidN , yN , aN , bN , tN . N picks a random rN and creates timestamp tN . Then it computes xN = aN ⊕idN , yN = xN ⊕rN and tidN = h(idN ⊕tN , rN ) and forwards the tuple ⟨tidN , yN , aN , bN , tN ⟩ to IN .

Authentication Phase. The various steps of the authen- tication phase are depicted in Fig. 4 and are as follows: Step 1: N IN : tidN , yN , aN , bN , tN , id′N . N picks a random rN and creates timestamp tN . It then computes are changed in every other run of the protocol, the anonymity of node N is preserved. In ▇▇ et al’s scheme, an adversary was able to link two sessions to the same node N because of the unmasking of the updated authentication parameters (a+ , b+ ) xN = aN ⊕ idN , yN = xN ⊕ rN . It further picks a random pseudonym id′N to be used as a temporary identifier for this session only, and calculates tidN = h(idN , id′N , tN , rN ) and sets the “Relay Field” of the underlying “MAC Header” to value 1, according to sub-clause 6.10 of [3].

Authentication Phase. Our scheme mutually authenticates remote user and the server. The session key is agreed using following steps:
Step 1: On receiving {Ei, Fi, Auth1, R2 } login message, the server SR extracts R2 = R2 ⊕ h(MQi || IDi), IDi = Ei ⊕ h(R2 || MQi), Fi = h(R2 || MQi || Di), Auth1 = h(IDi || Fi || R2 || MQi )Q (mod N). SR validates if Fi =? Fi and Auth1 =? Auth1. If both conditions fail, the request is aborted. Else, it proceeds further by generating random R3, calculates Auth2 = h(MQi || Di || R3), Gi = R3 ⊕ h(MQi || IDi), Auth3 = h(IDi || Auth2 || MQi || R2 || R3). SR transmits {Auth2, Gi, Auth3} to Ui.
Step 2: On receipt of {Auth2, Gi, Auth2}, Ui extracts R3 = Gi ⊕ h(MQi || IDi) and calculates Auth2 = h(MQi || Di || R3 ), Auth3 = h(IDi || Auth2 || MQi || R2 || R3 ). Ui validates if Auth2 =? Auth2 and Auth3 =? Auth3. If both holds, user is authenticated by remote server. Else, SR aborts the process. Both entities agree on a session key SKey = h(Di || MQi || R2 || R3).
