چکیده
This paper proposes a simple, user friendly but more secure mechanism for user authentication. Developing countries should make necessary changes to the technologies in developed countries before using them in developing countries without blindly using technologies in developed countries. If they realize value of their cultural aspects and value systems they can have state of the art systems with fewer resources. This paper addresses how the traditional value system facilitates to have a user friendly but more secure user authentication system.

Smart City Reference Model: Interconnectivity for On-Demand User to Service Authentication
The Internet of Things and Services (IoTS) has encouraged the development of service provisioning systems in respect to Smart City topics. Most of them are operated as heterogeneous systems which limits end customers’ access and contradicts with IoTS principles. In this paper, we discuss and develop a reference model of an interconnected service marketplace ecosystem. The prototypical implement...
متن کاملAn enhanced biometrics-based remote user authentication scheme using mobile devices
Remote user authentication is a mechanism, in which the remote server verifies the legitimacy of a user over an insecure communication channel. Recently, Wang and Li proposed a fingerprint-based remote user authentication scheme using mobile devices. We demonstrate that their scheme is vulnerable and susceptible to many attacks and has some practical pitfalls. To solve these problems, we propos...

In contrast to private wireless networks, public wireless networks need a proper authentication scheme for several reasons. First of all, the network operator must be able to identify a user in case an incident happens. Furthermore, such networks are usually controlled ...
متن کاملExamining the relationship between communities' 'age-friendliness' and life satisfaction and self-perceived health in rural Manitoba, Canada.

Age-friendliness is defined in terms of a range of domains, such as housing, opportunities for participation, and transportation. Communities that accommodate the needs of older adults in these domains will, it is thought, promote heal...
متن کاملAuthentication and Sharing Devices Using Social Networks
(TODO: Old, needs to be rewritten.) Securing wireless networks and performing user-friendly seamless wireless authentication are considered mutually conflicting goals. In this paper we describe an architecture that lets typical users easily build a secure wireless network, while allowing user-friendly, seamless and persistent authentication, by making use of user identities and user trust relat...
