摘要

The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices play a vital role in supporting the widespread adoption of cloud computing technologies, particularly in the Internet of Things (IoT) environments. In a cloud computing environment, the RFID network gets exposed to several data security challenges. For reliable and secure communication among cloud servers and RFID devices, factors such as bandwidth, mobility, and latency play a vital role. Given that bandwidth is one of the key factors that affect communication structure, cloud services must remain accessible to mobile users. Therefore, a novel and reliable 6G-enabled, secure, and lightweight RFID authentication protocol (called 6G-SLAP) is required for RFID devices to protect and secure sensitive data in cloud computing environments. This research work presents a lightweight RFID-based authentication protocol that addresses these issues using lightweight operations, such as bitwise XOR, left-right rotations, quarter-flip, and Sixth Generation (6G) technology. We demonstrate that the proposed 6G-SLAP protocol preserves both tag untraceability and information privacy features by employing the widely recognized Juels–Weis privacy model. The proposed 6G-SLAP protocol is analyzed using the well-proven automated security verification Scyther tool and Gong, Needham, and Yahalom (GNY) logic, proving the proposed protocol’s robustness against a variety of security attacks. The resilience and security against such attacks are demonstrated through simulation results. The performance analysis of the 6G-SLAP protocol is investigated, and the results show that it outperforms state-of-the-art protocols in terms of communication rounds, communication cost, and storage cost.
