Unified Authentication Scheme Based on IBE in Trusted Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
The existing unified authentication schemes are based on Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)/Privilege Management Infrastructure (PMI), WS-Security, Kerberos etc. But they can't support the developing Trusted Network Connect (TNC) environment. To solve the problem, a unified authentication scheme supporting multi-authentication modes based on Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) in trusted network named IEUAS is proposed. IEUAS authenticates the identity of a user by loading different authentication plugins to communicate with the related authentication servers. According to the legal identity of the user, a lightweight IBE system enforces four management mechanisms. They are the identity management, the key management, the application management and the domain management. Single Sign-On (SSO) and cross-domain SSO are implemented. The experiment results show that IEUAS can effectively solve the unified authentication problem in the TNC environment, and provide better security, efficiency and availability.

Identity Based Encryption (IBE) is a public key cryptosystem where a unique identity string, such as an e-mail address, can be used as a public key. IBE is simpler than the traditional PKI since certificates are not needed. An IBE scheme is usually based on pairing of discrete points on elliptic curves. An IBE scheme can also be based on quadratic residuosity. This paper presents an overview of...
