Security for Whom?: The Shifting Security Assumptions of Pervasive Computing
نویسنده
چکیده
Pervasive computing will introduce hundreds of computing devices per user. This change is of such magnitude that it is qualitative as well as quantitative. Old solutions may not scale when the size of the problem grows by such a factor—passwords, for example, will no longer be a suitable user authentication method. In this paper we examine new security issues for pervasive computing including authentication, biometrics and digital rights management. But the potential impact of pervasive computing on society is such that we have a responsibility to look further than just the technical issues.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...

متن کاملCAMAC: a context-aware mandatory access control model
Mandatory access control models have traditionally been employed as a robust security mechanism in multilevel security environments such as military domains. In traditional mandatory models, the security classes associated with entities are context-insensitive. However, context-sensitivity of security classes and flexibility of access control mechanisms may be required especially in pervasive c...
