HOTP-Based User Authentication Scheme in Home Networks

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNSC,volume 5576))

Abstract

Home networks are one of the focused areas of research these days. One of the important services that home networks provide is to remotely control home appliances in home network. However, the remote control service causes home networks to have various security threats. Hence, home networks should provide strong security services, especially remote user authentication. In this paper, we provide an efficient solution for authentication scheme to provide secure remote access in home network environments. Our proposed scheme uses HMAC-based one-time password algorithm for the user authentication in home networks. The proposed scheme is not only has several advantage features but also is quite satisfactory in terms of the security requirements of home networks.
