Application to second devices contained in RFID tags.
摘要: A system and a method for cryptographic coupon reloading are provided for, wherein a coupon comprises, on one hand, a pseudo-random number r i = PRFk (i), where i is an index for labeling the coupon, PRF is a predetermined pseudo-random function and K is a regeneration key, and, on the other hand, a 'reduced-coupon' x i such that x i = f(r i), where f is a predetermined one-way function, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: a candidate device (1) and a second device (2) acquire a common value of a token T, said candidate device (1) transmits a verification value v t to the second device (2), the second device (2) verifies whether said verification value v t is given by v t = PRF'Q (T), where PRF' is a predetermined keyed pseudo-random function identical to, or derived from, said pseudo-random function PRF, and where Q is an authentication key owned by the second device (2) and known to the candidate device (1) provided the candidate device (1) is a legitimate reloading device (1), and if the verification is positive, one or several reduced-coupon(s) provided by the reloading device (1) are stored in the second device (2).
