This paper proposes a Secure Mobile Wallet Framework (SMWF) using WPKI (Wireless Public Key Infrastructure) and UICC (Universal Integrated Circuit Card) by defining (a) a procedure of personalizing UICC by the client, (b) a procedure of provisioning and personalization (Mutual Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol) of Mobile Payments Application (which is on UICC) by the Bank and (c) our proposed mobile wallet is will have mobile wallet manager managed by CA (acting as TSM), every mobile application is independent, protected by firewalls and encrypted data is stored in the mobile wallet application. Their proposed Mobile Wallet ensures end to end security. The authors’ proposed SMWF is compared with recent works and found to be better in terms of generating client’s credentials, implementation of WPKI in UICC, personalization of mobile payment application by the bank and in ensuring end to end security (i.e., from Mobile Payments Application in UICC to the Bank Server). The proposed mobile payment protocol originating from Mobile Payment Application (which is on UICC) to the Bank Server realizes Fair Exchange ensures Confidentiality, Authentication, Integrity and Non Repudiation, prevents double spending, over spending and money laundering, and withstands replay, Man in the Middle (MITM) and Impersonation attacks. Proposed mobile payment protocol is formally verified using AVISPA and Scyther Tool and presented with results.
