Abstract :
Over the past decades, more and more online resources are provided as the primary teaching medium, or as a forum for knowledge networking and discussion, or information exchange with peers or experts. In the field of music education, online education offers much convenience to learners, and satisfies them with difference demands, which inevitably attracts more potential learner to participate and thus becomes a hot topic in both remote education and economy. However, the security protection of online music learning system is poorly designed in existing systems. By exploiting the vulnerability of authentication, the attackers may masquerade as users and steal personal information, such as name, birth of date or credit card number. In this paper, we present a novel remote authentication scheme using smart card. Our scheme guarantees that we provide much better security for users of all online music learning systems.
