In this paper, we propose a specific time synchronization protocol called MSTSP (Master Slave Time Synchronization Protocol

An e-Seal is an active RFID device that was set on the door of a container. e-Seal provides both the state of the seal and the remote control of the device automatically. But it has vulnerabilities like eavesdrop and impersonate because of using RFID system. A secure e-Seal authentication protocol must use PRF for encryption/decryption of reader and e-Seal. The existing PRF uses simple hash function such as MD5 or SHA which is not available for e-Seal. It is required to use strong hash functions. The hash function is a essential technique used for data integrity, message authentication and encryption in the mechanism of information security. Therefore, in this paper, we propose more secure and effective hash function based on polynomial for e-Seal authentication protocol.
