%0 Journal Article %T New Remote Mutual Authentication Scheme using Smart Cards %A Rajaram Ramasamy %A Amutha Prabakar Muniyandi %J Transactions on Data Privacy %D 2009 %I IIIA-CSIC %X Remote mutual authentication based on smart cards is the best practical solution for remote accessing. Most of the schemes are password based. In this paper we propose a new remote mutual authentication scheme using smart cards without maintaining the password table. This is based on ElGamal's. It provides high security and mutual authentication at a reasonable computational cost. Furthermore it restricts most of the current attacking mechanisms. It is simple and can be adopted in any kind of lightweight devices. %U http://www.tdp.cat/issues/tdp.a012a08.pdf
