Abstract:
In this paper, we propose an ownership transfer scheme that applies in mobile RFID networks. The scheme includes a mutual authentication protocol and a role-based ownership transfer protocol. A tag will decide what actions are allowed for a reader according to the reader’s role class, and the back-end server will send to the reader the requested information about the tag. Keyed-hash functions are used to secure the protocols. Last, we prove that our protocol can do against the threats of replay attacks, distributed denial of service (DDoS), Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks that change users’ data, interception of data and location privacy, and tracking of tags’ ownership transfer
