Summary:碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 資訊科學與工程學系所 === 101 === In recent years, many cloud services, like Internet shopping and Internet banking have become very popular. Using smart phones or smart cards for user authentication is becoming more and more common. Therefore, in insecure networks, how to protect personal information and to ensure the effective exchange of information become important issues. In 2012, Vorugunti et al. proposed an advanced secure remote user authentication scheme preserving user anonymity. Unfortunately, according to our study, we find that Vorugunti et al. scheme is vulnerable to offline guessing attack, impersonation attack, and does not provide the functionality of the mutual authentication. In this thesis, we propose a security enhanced remote user authentication scheme. The proposed scheme can not only solve the weaknesses of Vorugunti et al. scheme, but also more secure when compared to some other schemes.
