“…The idea of hash function is used by protocols [52] and [155], such as the IPSec protocol implements an anti-replay mechanism based on Message Authentication Code (MAC) [167]. In addition, the idea of Timestamp in the encrypted messages is used by [43,66,55,52,151,152,153,154,70,71,155,73,75,76,78,81,79,80,159].…”

“…Das et al [158] reviewed the recently proposed Chang-Le's two protocols [277] and then showed that their protocols are insecure against some known attacks. Liu and Chung [159] proposed a secure user authentication scheme for wireless healthcare sensor networks, which is efficient in terms of computation cost of compared to both schemes in [278] and [279]. Gope et al [280] proposed a special idea for resilience of DoS attacks in designing anonymous user authentication protocol.…”

In this paper, a comprehensive survey of authentication protocols for Internet of Things (IoT) is presented. Specifically more than forty authentication protocols developed for or applied in the context of the IoT are selected and examined in detail. These protocols are categorized based on the target environment: (1) Machine to Machine Communications (M2M), (2) Internet of Vehicles (IoV), (3) Internet of Energy (IoE), and (4) Internet of Sensors (IoS). Threat models, countermeasures, and formal security verification techniques used in authentication protocols for the IoT are presented. In addition a taxonomy and comparison of authentication protocols that are developed for the IoT in terms of network model, specific security goals, main processes, computation complexity, and communication overhead are provided. Based on the current survey, open issues are identified and future research directions are proposed.

“…• Mutual authentication Mutual authentication is a prerequisite for preventing fraudulent authentication requests. The traditional methods of authentication (such as password and name) are not suitable for HC applications [18]. In general, there are two kinds of authentication, simple and mutual.…”

“…The attacker can use his device as a fake server to receive all clients' requests. Mutual authentication provides a security solution to prevent known attacks [18]. In this type of authentication, each party authenticates the other party and thus, prevents counterfeit attacks by both client or server.…”

Providing a mechanism to authenticate users in healthcare applications is an essential security requirement to prevent both external and internal attackers from penetrating patients' identities and revealing their health data. Many schemes have been developed to provide authentication mechanisms to ensure that only legitimate users are authorized to connect, but these schemes still suffer from vulnerable security. Various attacks expose patients' data for malicious tampering or destruction. Transferring healthrelated data and information between users and the health centre makes them exposed to penetration by adversaries as they may move through an insecure channel. In addition, previous mechanisms have suffered from the poor protection of users' authentication information. To ensure the protection of patients' information and data, we propose a scheme that authenticates users based on the information of both the device and the legitimate user. In this paper, we propose a Robust Authentication Model for Healthcare Users (RAMHU) that provides mutual authentication between server and clients. This model utilizes an Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme (ECIES) and PHOTON to achieve strong security and a good overall performance. RAMHU relies on multi pseudonyms, physical address, and one-time password mechanisms to authenticate legitimate users. Moreover, extensive informal and formal security analysis with the automated validation of Internet security protocols and applications (AVISPA) tool demonstrates that our model offers a high level of security in repelling a wide variety of possible attacks.

“…However, Li et al pointed out the vulnerability of Das's scheme to off-line password guessing, user impersonation, node impersonation and unknown user attacks [13]. Recently Liu and Chung proposed a bilinear pairing-based authentication Manuscript scheme for IoT-based medical care system [14]. Unfortunately, Li et al showed the security weaknesses in Liu and Chung's scheme focused on password disclosure attack, replay attack, sensed data disclosure attack, sensed data forgery attack, stolen smart card (SC) attack and off-line password guessing attack [15].…”

With the rapid development of wireless communication technologies and the growing prevalence of smart devices, medical care system allows patients to receive medical treatments from the doctors in remote over wireless sensor networks via Internet of things (IoT). However, the medical data transmission through IoT concerns the privacy issue of patient. To solve this problem, Li et al. proposed an efficient user authentication and user anonymity scheme for medical care system over IoT and claimed their scheme is provably secure. This paper shows that Li et al.'s scheme has some security weaknesses and presents an enhanced scheme to solve the problems in Li et al.'s scheme. The proposed scheme has a bit of overhead in computation but provides security with privacy.Index Terms-Internet of things, medical care system, privacy, authentication, public key cryptography.
