Abstract

Implementing a mobile One-time Password (OTP) Token on a cellular phone is a hot topic since the past few years. The proposed solutions had made certain improvements on network security. But none of them can fully prevent the OTP seed (K) tracing from MIMT OTP code interception or Shoulder-surfing security attacks while also meet the following criteria – fully compliant with existing authentication systems, inter-operable with other token and easy to deploy or support. This paper presents a cipher called Rubbing Encryption Algorithm (REAL) and the implementation of a Mobile OTP Token using this algorithm. The newly designed REAL Mobile OTP Token addresses and improves the aforementioned issues successfully.
