Abstract
Classic cryptographic protocols based on user-chosen keys allow an attacker to mount password-guessing attacks. A combination of asymmetric (public-key) and symmetric (secret-key) cryptography that allow two parties sharing a common password to exchange confidential and authenticated information over an insecure network is introduced. In particular, a protocol relying on the counter-intuitive motion of using a secret key to encrypt a public key is presented. Such protocols are secure against active attacks, and have the property that the password is protected against offline dictionary attacks. >

Verifier-based anonymous password-authenticated key exchange protocol in the standard model

TL;DR: A verifier-based anonymous password-authenticated key exchange protocol, in which the server holds a verifier corresponding to each client instead of the clear password, which is proved secure in the standard model.

A Non-Exchanged Password Scheme for Password-Based Authentication in Client-Server Systems

TL;DR: This research presents a non-exchanged password scheme that constructs a Digital Signature that is derived from the user password that is exchanged instead of the password itself for the purpose of authentication.

Evaluating Three Party Authentication and Key Agreement Protocols Using IP Multimedia Server---Client Systems

TL;DR: A novel three party authentication and key agreement protocol based on computational Diffie–Hellman which not only fulfills all the security properties of AKA, but also provides the resiliency to the most of the potential attacks.

Anonymous DoS-Resistant Access Control Protocol Using Passwords for Wireless Networks

TL;DR: A different access control protocol using passwords for wireless networks is proposed, and the client can anonymously authenticate himself to the server with a human-memorable password, while the server is free of DoS attacks.

A public key cryptosystem and a signature scheme based on discrete logarithms

TL;DR: A new signature scheme is proposed, together with an implementation of the Diffie-Hellman key distribution scheme that achieves a public key cryptosystem that relies on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms over finite fields.
