Abstract: | Various user authentication schemes with smart cards have been proposed. Generally, researchers implicitly assume that the contents of a smart card cannot be revealed. However, this is not true. An attacker can analyze the leaked information and obtain the secret values in a smart card. To improve on this drawback, we involve a fingerprint biometric and password to enhance the security level of the remote authentication scheme Our scheme uses only hashing functions to implement a robust authentication with a low computation property.
