Zero- Knowledge Proof is a cryptographic protocol exercised to render privacy and data security by securing the identity of users and using services anonymously. It finds numerous applications; authentication is one of them. A Zero-Knowledge Proof-based authentication system is discussed in this paper. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol have been used to design and build the ZKP based authentication system. SRP is a broadly used Password Authenticated Key Exchange (PAKE) protocol. The proposed method overcomes several drawbacks of traditional and commonly used authentication systems such as a simple username and plaintext password-based system, multi-factor authentication system and others.
