摘要：Smart grid (SG) provides a suitable adjustment in the amount of power generation by providing the ability to supervise consumer behavior. SG uses in the smart system to encourage cultural heritage because it is accountable for providing power without any interruption. SG is one of the vital components to authorize smart systems with a lot of smart features to attract visitors to come and visit heritage. In SG, environment security and privacy are the major concern for communications. An authentication protocol provides secure communication between users and service provider for security and privacy purpose. Several authentication protocols are available in the literature. However, they are enabled to known security attacks easily or they are not computationally efficient for SG communication. In the present paper, we design an ECC-based mutual authentication protocol for smart grid communication using biometric approach. The present framework satisfy various security features such as replay attack, user anonymity, man in the middle attack, key freshness, message authentication, session key agreement, impersonation attack, non-traceability and non-transferability. Further, the proposed protocol takes much less communication and computation costs compared with other existing protocols in SG environment. Therefore, our scheme is convenient for practical application in SG communication.
