Remote user authentication is of concern in wireless communication networks. This paper proposes a novel remote user authentication scheme based on Euclidean geometry in conjunction with smart card. The proposed scheme preserves user's anonymity while withstanding the following security breaches: resistance to forgery attacks, resistance to replay attacks, resistance to password guessing attacks. In addition, a user can choose and change his password freely.
