Gaurav Tiwari and Amit K. Awasthi and Neha Shukla

Abstract: In 2010, Sood et al [3] proposed a secure dynamic identity based authentication scheme using smart cards. They claimed that their scheme is secure against various attacks. In this paper, we improve their scheme for outsider attack as well as insider attack. To remedy these security flaws, an improved scheme is proposed to withstand these attacks.
