Abstract
A new public-key protocol has been developed for key agreement and aut hentication. This protocol provides security comparable to the well kn own RSA public-key protocol, but with two orders of magnitude less on- line computation required on one side of the protocol. This advance ca n make public-key security economical for applications where one side of the interaction is a low-cost customer device, e.g. portable teleph ones, home banking terminals, or 'smart cards'.
