Abstract: The internet of things (IoT) has brought the properties of convenience, intelligence, and manageability into our daily lives. Nevertheless, it also gives malicious attackers lots of opportunity to compromise our private information. Hence, the security issue over IoT has become an emergent and crucial research topic. Kalra and Sood (2015) proposed an authentication scheme for IoT device and cloud server. Unfortunately, Chang et al. (2017) have pointed out the weaknesses of Kalra and Sood's scheme and provided proper improvements. However, we have found that the improved version still exist potential risks. Thus, we aim to develop a brand-new ECC-based authentication mechanism for offering a secure session between an IoT device and a cloud server. In particular, the new method is proved secure under the examination of AVISPA, which is a formal verification tool.
