Description
Summary:In a paper recently published in the IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, Zhu and Ma proposed a new authentication scheme with anonymity for wireless environments. However, this paper shows that Zhu and Ma's scheme has some security weaknesses. Therefore, in this paper, a slight modification to their scheme is proposed to improve their shortcomings. As a result, the scheme proposed in this paper can enhance the security of Zhu and Ma's scheme. Finally, the performance of this scheme is analyzed. Compared with the Zhu-Ma scheme, this scheme is also simple and efficient
