An Improved Provably Secure Identity-Based Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol

We revisit the identity-based (ID-based) key agreement protocol due to Wang et al. The protocol is highly efficient and suitable for practical applications except being vulnerable to Intermediate results leakage (IRL) and Key-compromise impersonation (KCI) attack. We propose an improved protocol following the Full Dual Exponential Challenge Response (FDCR-1) scheme to ensure the signature change every time. We also prove it to be secure in the strengthened extended Canetti -- Krawczyk (seCK) model provides better support for adversary's query than previous. In addition, the improved protocol also has an advantage over most existing protocols on security and efficiency.
