Permutation Matrix Encryption Based Ultralightweight Secure RFID Scheme in Internet of Vehicles

Area of Science:

• Computer Science
• Information Security
• Telecommunications

Background:

• Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a key technology for the Internet of Vehicles (IoV).
• Open wireless communication in RFID systems makes them vulnerable to privacy-invasive attacks.
• User privacy protection is essential for the widespread adoption of IoV.

Purpose of the Study:

• To address the privacy challenges of RFID systems within the IoV context.
• To propose a novel, lightweight RFID authentication scheme for enhanced privacy.
• To ensure both personal and location privacy for users in IoV environments.

Main Methods:

• Development of a lightweight RFID authentication scheme.
• Implementation of permutation matrix encryption for privacy protection.
• Analysis of the scheme's resistance to typical malicious attacks.

Main Results:

• The proposed scheme effectively protects user personal and location privacy.
• It demonstrates resilience against common RFID system attacks.
• The scheme offers fast authentication speeds suitable for IoV requirements.

Conclusions:

• The permutation matrix encryption-based RFID authentication scheme is a viable solution for IoV privacy.
• The scheme's efficiency and low tag cost align with IoV's high-speed demands.
• Further discussion on specific IoV application scenarios for the proposed scheme is provided.
