Provided is a terminal authentication system including a client terminal and a server device. The client terminal transmits first information based on secret information different for each client terminal and a client certificate including a hash value of the secret information which is derived from the secret information, to a server device. The server device receives the first information and the client certificate, derives a hash value from the secret information based on the first information using a unidirectional function, and authenticates the client terminal on the basis of the derived hash value and the hash value of the secret information which is included in the client certificate.

Terminal authentication system, server device, and terminal authentication method

Provided is a signature verification system including a communication device and a verification device. The communication device and the verification device are connected to each other through a network. The communication device derives a first hash value from a first random number, derives a second hash value from data including electronic data and a certificate of the communication device which includes the first hash value and a public key of the communication device, using a unidirectional function, generates a signature using a secret key of the communication device with respect to the second hash value, and transmits the electronic data, the certificate, and the signature to the verification device. The verification device receives the electronic data, the certificate, and the signature, authenticates the communication device using the first hash value included in the certificate, derives the second hash value from the data including the electronic data and the certificate using a unidirectional function, and verifies the signature using the public key of the communication device and the derived second hash value which are included in the certificate.

Signature verification using unidirectional function

Provided is a certificate issuing system including a client terminal and a server device. The client terminal derives a first hash value from a first random number using a unidirectional function, generates a secret key and a public key of the client terminal, and transmits the first hash value and the public key of the client terminal to the server device. The server device receives the first hash value and the public key of the client terminal from the client terminal, stores the first hash value, authenticates the client terminal on the basis of the stored first hash value and the derived first hash value, generates a client certificate on the basis of the public key of the client terminal and a secret key of the server device when the authentication succeeds, and transmits the client certificate to the client terminal.
