Abstract

As most of the recent smart devices have NFC function the NFC mobile coupon will become one of the pervasive NFC applications. We need the secure NFC coupon protocols to issue and use NFC mobile coupon. In this paper, we analyze the security of the previous protocols and point out the problems of security. As the result of analysis, Premium M-coupon Protocol proposed by A. Alshehri and S. Schneider is the most secure but has unnecessary operations. We propose the Modified Premium M-coupon Protocol-1 with the unnecessary operations removed and show this protocol is secure by security analysis. Most of NFC mobile coupon protocols use the cryptography with the shared secret keys. We propose the Modified Premium M-coupon Protocol-2 without the shared secret keys and show this protocol is secure by security analysis.
