In recent years, radio frequency identification technology has moved into the mainstream applications
that help to speed up handling of manufactured goods and materials. RFID tags are divided into two
classes: active and passive. Active tag requires a power source that’s why its cost is more than passive
tags. However, the low-cost RFID tags are facing new challenges to security and privacy. Some solutions
utilize expensive cryptographic primitives such as hash or encryption functions, and some lightweight
approaches have been reported to be not secure.
This paper describes a lightweight Mutual authentication and ownership transfer protocol utilizing
minimalistic cryptography using Physically Unclonable Functions (PUF) and Linear Feedback Shift
Registers (LFSR). PUFs and LFSRs are very efficient in hardware and particularly suitable for the lowcost
RFID tags. To functioning security in low cost RFID tag minimum gate requirement is 2000 gates.
To implement security protocols using PUF and LFSR functions need only approx 800 gates. In this
paper it is explained how we can authenticate and transfer ownership of low cost RFID tag securely
using LFSR and PUF as compared to existing solutions based on hash functions
