A Group RFID Tag Ownership Transfer Protocol without Trusted Third Party

doi:10.3969/j.issn.1671-1122.2018.06.003

Abstract

Abstract:

When ownership of an RFID tagged item changes, how to transfer securely between the old and new owners is a problem to be addressed in the RFID tag ownership transfer protocol. Existing ownership transfer agreements tend to focus on the transfer of ownership of a single item, rarely involving the transfer of ownership of bulk items. By using group proof protocol and elliptic curve encryption, a group RFID tag ownership transfer protocol with forward / backward privacy is proposed. It supports batch transfer of multiple tag ownership, and records the transfer by grouping proof to ensure data integrity; Use elliptic curve encryption to secure security and privacy in the ownership transfer through group keys. Through security and performance analysis, the protocol has high security, scalability, and lower performance overhead.

Key words: ownership transfer, anonymous, elliptic curve cryptography
