Recently RFID system has been adopted in various fields rapidly. However, we ought to solve the problem of privacy invasion that can be occurred by obtaining information of RFID Tag without any permission for popularization of RFID system To solve the problems, it is Ohkubo et al.'s Hash-Chain Scheme which is the safest method. However, this method has a problem that requesting lots of computing process because of increasing numbers of Tag. Therefore, in this paper we apply the previous method into the grid environment by analyzing Hash-Chain scheme in order to reduce processing time when Tags are identified. We'll implement the process by offering Tag Identification Process Model to divide SPs evenly by node.

Nowadays, low-cost radio frequency identification (RFID) technique, is recognizable without the physical contact between the reader and the tag, has been attracting more and more interests from both industry and academic institutes. however, it causes the serious privacy infringement such as excessive information exposure and user's location information tracking due to the wireless characteristics. The security problem of read only tag can be only solved by physical method. In this paper, we propose a low-cost authentication protocol which can be adopted for read-only RFID tag using XOR and Partial ID. The proposed protocol is secure against reply attacking, eavesdropping and spoofing attacking so that avoiding the location privacy exposure

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a next generation technology that will replace barcode. RFID can identify an object by reading ID inside a RFID tag using radio frequency. However, because a RFID tag replies its unique ID to the request of any reader through wireless communication, it is vulnerable to attacks on security or privacy through wiretapping or an illegal reader's request. The RFID authentication protocol has been studied actively in order to solve security and privacy problems, and is used also in tag search. Recently, as the number of tags is increasing in RFTD systems and the cost of data collection is also rising, the importance of effective tag search is increasing. This study proposed an efficient search method that solved through ta9 group the problem of large volume of database computation in Miyako Ohkubo's hash chain mechanism, which meets requirements for security and privacy protection. When we searched first the group of tags with access rate of 5 or higher in a database with 100,000 records, search time decreased by around 30%.

We are sure that RFID system should be a widely used automatic identification system because of its various advantages and applications. However, many people know that invasions of privacy in RFID system is still critical problem that makes it difficult to be used. Many works for solving this problem have focused on light-weight cryptographic functioning in the RFID tag. An agent scheme is another approach that an agent device controls communications between the tag and the reader for protecting privacy. Generally an agent device has strong security modules and enough capability to process high-level cryptographic protocols and can guarantees consumer privacy. In this paper, we present an enhanced mobile agent for RFID privacy protection. In enhanced MARP, we modified some phases of the original MARP to reduce the probability of successful eavesdropping and to reduce the number of tag's protocol participation. And back-end server can authenticate mobile agents more easily using public key cryptography in this scheme. It guarantees not only privacy protection but also preventing forgery.

Hash based RFID protocols proposed by Ha and M.Burmester is a scheme that tag's ID is updated using hash function to provide forward secrecy after session end. But this protocols have a problem both privacy and efficiency. This paper analyze a problem for privacy to apply a privacy game model proposed by Vaudenay. we analyze the cause that these scheme is difficult with tag's cheap implementation and efficient resynchronization. To solve these problems, we proposed a new hash based mutual authentication protocol which apply only two protocol's advantages. this protocols is based of resynchronization algorithm for Ha et al.'s protocol and added a new simple counter to record the numner of continuous desynchronization between tag and reader secret informations. this counter is more simple than cyclic counter proposed by M. Burmester's protocol. Also, we prove that proposal protocol improve a privacy against a privacy attack which is executed for Ha and M. Burmester's protocols.

This paper proposes unforgeable RFID variable n scheme with efficient identification. The existing schemes on privacy protection are in efficient because a server should execute identification process with all Tag ID's Information in order to identify a certain Tag. Moreover these schemes have the serious problem that an attacker can forge special tags if he can know tag's secret information stored in the server's database. Our scheme Is required only 2 times exponent computation to identify a tag. The proposed scheme is also secure against leakage of tags information stored in a database, because an attacker cannot forge special tag even if he knows secret information of the server(database).

Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) has been considered as an key infrastructure for the ubiquitous society. However, due to the inherent drawbacks, RFID causes var- ious security threats like privacy problems, tag cloning, etc. This paper analyses the security risk analysis process from the perspective of the RFID tag life cycle, identify the tag usage process, identify the associated vulnerability and threat to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the information assets and its implications for privacy, and the mitigate the risks.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) system is expected to play a critical role providing widespread services in the ubiquitous period. However, widespread use of RFID tags may create new threats to the privacy of individuals such as information leakage and traceability. It is difficult to solve the privacy problems because a tag has the limited computing power that is not the adequate resource to support the general encryption. Although the scheme of [2] protects the consumer privacy using an external agent, a tag should compute exponential operation needed high cost. We propose Self Re-Encryption Protocol (SREP) which provides song privacy without assisting of any external agent. Our SREP is well suitable to low-cost RFID system since it only needs multiplication and exclusive-or operation.

Recently, the invasion of privacy in medical information has been issued following the interest in the secondary use of mass medical information. The mass medical information is very useful information that can be used in various fields such as disease research and prevention. However, due to privacy laws such as the Privacy Act and Medical Law, this information, including patients' or health professionals' personal information, is difficult to utilize as a secondary use of mass information. To do these problem, various methods such as k-anonymity, l-diversity and differential-privacy that can be utilized while protecting privacy have been developed and utilized in this field. In this paper, we discuss the differential privacy processing of the various methods that have been studied so far, and discuss the problems of differential privacy using Laplace noise and the previously proposed differential privacy. Finally, we propose a new scheme to solve the existing problem by adding a 1-bit status field to the last column of a given data set to confirm the response to queries from analysts.

Mobile RFID which integrates mobile network with RFID technique is the technique to get the information of products by transmitting the identifier through mobile network after reading the identifier of RFID tag. It attached on the equipment as the mobile phone. However, mobile RFID has the privacy-related problem among requested secure problems required from the existing RFID. In this paper, the random key created by mobile RFID reader and Tag during the inter-certificating and initialization procedure for mobile RFID users to receive tag information from backend server securely is divided into random sizes and any information on the tag which requires the protection of privacy shouldn't be provided to anyone. In performance analysis, previous protocol used modulo operation in registration and login computation. But the proposed protocol has higher efficiency in saving space and computation volume than MARP scheme and Kim. et. al scheme because our protocol is accomplished by mutual authentication and registering user information through one-way hash function.
