Abstract :
A secure authentication protocol which supports both the privacy of messages and the authenticity of communicating parties is proposed. The trusted third party (key information center) is not needed once the secure network system is set up. Mutual authentication and key distribution can be achieved with two messages merely between two parties involved.
