Abstract
A method, system and devices for digital contact tracing security and privacy with proximity-based ID exchange with distance-bounding. The method is performed by a first wireless communication device and provides for exchanging IDs with a second wireless communication device. A rolling proximity identifier A associated with the first wireless communication device is sent to the second wireless communication device. A rolling proximity identifier B associated with the second wireless communication device is received from the second wireless communication device. A cryptographic challenge response authentication with time-based distance-bounding is performed based on a hash value determined from the rolling proximity identifiers in accordance with a hash function. The rolling proximity identifier of the second wireless communication device is only stored in memory in response to a successful cryptographic challenge response authentication.
