Paper Abstract:
|
Ubiquitous access and pervasive computing enable innovative services and provide the service access in every situation.
People currently rely on numerous forms of identities to access the remote or proximity services. The inconvenience of
possessing and using these identities creates significant security vulnerability. This paper proposes an architecture that
integrates the identities required to access various remote and proximity services into a single mechanism. In the
mechanism, identities are distributed between the users personal device and a secure network space. Third party identity
providers along with the mobile network provide the underlying secure infrastructure for identity information exchange.
The use of multiple layers of authentication context to meet several levels of secure service access requirements enhances
the security of this mechanism. |
