Zero-Knowledge Authentication
Year: 2021
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Zero-Knowledge proofs (ZKPs) enable proving of mathematical statements, revealing nothing but their validity. We design an authentication sys-tem with a ZKP as a password verification mech-anism within the Extensible Authentication Pro-tocol (EAP) framework. Designing a secure pass-word authentication system requires us to adopt security practices for protecting ourselves against the vulnerabilities of passwords. Integrating said practices is not trivial because of the tight cou-pling with the password verification method.
