People have been used to performing transactions or accessing sensitive data from public terminals. Yet, these public terminals are susceptible to the fake terminal attack, where the attackers set up fake terminals and steal sensitive information. Therefore, we should authenticate these terminals before using them. To fight against the fake terminal attack, we shall propose a strong hybrid approach. Our solution is capable of reducing the number of secret databases maintained by the server, alleviating the load of storing the public keys of all the terminals put on the storage-limited device, and simplifying the long interaction steps that previous methods have.
