Abstract

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is a wireless automatic identification using low-cost RFID tags. Due to the importance of RFID in everyday life, the need to maintain security and Privacy in these systems has been increasing day by day. In this paper, at first, we define a new operation named crossover, by using simple bitwise operations and discuss its security. Then we propose a new secure ultra-lightweight RFID Authentication protocol with crossover operation (SURC). SURC is a low communication and computation cost protocol that can be integrated into the ubiquitous Electronic Product Code (EPCglobal) class1 Generation 2 tag protocol (C1G2). The new protocol resists data integrity and confidentiality, tag location tracking backward traceability, and server and tag impersonation.
