Utilizing the property of unitary transformation and Greenberger‐Horne‐Zeilinger (GHZ) states, a restricted quantum deniable authentication protocol is proposed. The protocol can provide that the sender can deny the content of the sent message, but cannot deny taking part in a certain communication. Security analysis results show that this protocol can satisfy known key security and the basic security requirements of restricted deniable authentication protocol such as completeness, restricted deniability, no‐counterfeiting and can withstand impersonation attack, intercept‐resend attack.
