Abstract With the development of hardware devices and the upgrading of smartphones, a large number of users save privacy-related information in mobile devices, mainly smartphones, which puts forward higher demands on the protection of mobile users’ privacy information. At present, mobile user authentication methods based on human-computer interaction have been extensively studied due to their advantages of high precision and non-perception, but there are still shortcomings such as low data collection efficiency, untrustworthy participating nodes, and lack of practicability. To this end, this paper proposes a privacy-enhanced mobile user authentication method with motion sensors, which mainly includes: (1) Construct a smart… More >

Abstract Authentication is important to the security of user data in a mobile cloud environment. Because of the server’s user credentials, it is subject to attacks. To maintain data authentication, a novel authentication mechanism is proposed. It consists of three independent phases: Registration, login, and authentication and key agreement. The user registers with the Registration Center (RC) by producing a secret number that isn’t stored in the phone, which protects against privileged insider attacks. The user and server generate a nonce for dynamic user identity and agree on a session secret key for safe communication. The passwords are not stored on… More >
