Satya Sujith Journal on Embedded Systems 2278 - 7895 4 1 32 40 Authentication, Networks, Entity groupings Zero-Knowledge Proof, Verilog HDL, Diffie-Hellman, FPGA There are networks and entity groupings that require authentications while preserving the privacy of the entity being authenticated. Zero – Knowledge Proof (ZKP) plays a vital role in authentications without revealing the secret information. The proposed work carries criticism of ZKP, and Diffie–Hellman Key Exchange Algorithm (DHKEA). A new ZKP has been proposed based on modifications of the DHKEA. As per the modifications, two versions of the proposed protocols were developed. Verilog HDL is effectively utilized to complete the design of the proposed protocols. Results will be verified through simulations and FPGA target board. The proposed tradition fulfills the ZKP properties and are secured against discrete logarithm strike and man-in-the middle attack. The proposed figuring serves as key exchange count with the development to affirmation organizations. February - April 2015 Copyright © 2015 i-manager publications.
