Paper Abstract:
|
Mobile cloud allows mobile users to access and manage data anywhere and anytime using mobile devices. Mobile devices have the advantages of taking data out of homes and offices and putting them in users' pockets. Due to the limitations on the hardware of mobile devices, which cannot install and run full software features such as Microsoft Office or Adobe Photoshop, cloud computing will be the future solution of mobile computing, giving users more computing power and capabilities beyond the limitations of mobile devices. The combination of cloud computing and mobile computing produces mobile cloud computing, which also presents added security concerns such as unauthorized access of resources. This paper introduces the fingerprint recognition system for user authentication using the built-in camera of mobile phones. The proposed solution captures the fingerprint image and extracted features by preprocessing the samples. Then, the image is stored in the database for comparison purposes to verify the identity of the user, allowing them to access mobile cloud computing as a part of enhanced mobile cloud computing security. |
