Secure framework for data access using Location based service in Mobile Cloud Computing
Deepanshu Goyal, M. Bala Krishna · 2015
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) extends the services of cloud computing with respect to mobility in cloud and user device. MCC offloads the computation and storage to the cloud since the mobile devices are resource constrained with respect to computation, storage and bandwidth. The task can be partitioned to offload different sub-tasks to the cloud and achieve better performance. Security and privacy are the primary factors that enhance the performance of MCC applications. In this paper we present a security framework for data access using Location-based service (LBS) that acts as an additional layer in authentication process. User having valid credentials in location within the organization are enabled as authenticated user.
