An Enhanced PKI Based Information Sharing Security Protocol for Secure Digital Government and Mobile Government System
Aisha Anjum · 2013
Digital Government and Mobile Government are chiefly an issue of receiving public sector Information Technology schemes adapt to interoperability with citizen's digital government devices furthermore mobile devices. Enhanced interoperability involving public and private organizations is of key value to formulate digital government new- fangled victorious. Incidentally, expanding a sound digital government with mobile or digital government framework in the public sector is an imperative issue. Widespread digital governments with mobile public services framework must primary and leading amalgamate the following five principles: Interoperability, Security, Openness, Flexibility and Scalability. Digital Government security is precise one of the key aspect for pulling off an advanced stage of digital government along with mobile government. Digital government with mobile government must make sure security for its information systems, including computers and networks for providing better service to the citizens. Governments around the world are progressively more spinning to information sharing and integration, for solving problems in programs and policy areas. Harms of international agonize for example disorder discovery and run, terror campaign, colonization and border control, forbidden drug trafficking, and more demand information sharing, harmonization and cooperation amid government agencies within a country and athwart national borders. Countless disheartening challenges endure to the progress of an efficient information sharing protocol. A protected, trusted, role and cooperation based improved information-sharing protocol is required to enable mobile users or users to relate and share information easily and perfectly across many diverse networks, mobile devices and databases globally. This article chiefly presents (1) literature review of digital government security, mobile government, PKI based security approach and interoperability, (2) key research issues of mobile government, conceptual framework and adaptation mechanism and (3) an well-organized enhanced PKI based information sharing security protocol for secure exchange of top secret information amongst security personnels and government departments within the national boundaries under the digital and mobile government system. While trust-based, role and cooperation based information access is well studied in the literature, presented secure information sharing technologies and protocols cannot offer enough incentives for mobile or digital government agencies to share information amid them without harming their own national interest. To overwhelm the drawbacks of the accessible technology, a ground-breaking and talented enhanced security protocol is anticipated in this article for sharing of top secret information among government intelligence agencies internationally. The improved security protocol intended assures the enhanced interoperability of the digital and mobile government by sharing secure and updated information among government intelligence agencies to evade intimidating deeds. The experimental results exhibit the efficiency of the proposed PKI based information sharing security approach. In addition, this paper has shown, the citizens should be carefully educated in order to feel comfortable with mobile or digital government system. Key points of innovative ideas and views for further research and development in this field is first attempted in the paper.
