Then, we firstly present our improved password-based key agreement protocol based on Kim et al.¡¯s scheme and show that it withstands password guessing attack and illegal modification. Then we propose an improved Verifier-based key agreement protocol based on Lee et al.¡¯s scheme and demonstrate that it is secure against Stolen-verifier attack and password guessing attack. %K Password %K verifier %K key agreement protocol %K password guessing attack %K stolen-verifier attack %U http://docsdrive.com/pdfs/ansinet/itj/2007/602-606.pdf
