Abstract: An authentication method between a server and a client is provided. The authentication method includes transmitting, to the client, an inquiry message including a first modified secret key generated based on a first secret key and a first blinding value, receiving, from the client, a response message including a response value generated based on the first blinding value, a second secret key, and an error value, calculating the error value from the response value, and determining whether authentication of the client has succeeded based on the error value.

Abstract: A system and method for authenticating a resource-constrained client are provided. The method includes transmitting, by the server, a query message including a first modified secret key to the client, wherein the first modified secret key is generated using a first secret key and a first blinding value; receiving, from the client, a response message including a response value, wherein the response value is generated using the first blinding value, a second secret key, and an error value; calculating the error value from the response value; and determining, based on the error value, whether authentication of the client is successful.
