Location Based Authentication and Information Security in Cloud Environment: LBAIS

Abstract

In cloud computing users are able to access the information and resources. Data and network security are lot of security challenges are facing by this technology on the time of accessing information and resources from the cloud. The secure communication of digital information is very necessary. The intruders can perform various types of network attacks during information transmission. A Location Based Authentication and an Information Security (LBAIS) framework is proposed in this paper, which authenticate the cloud users using Global Positioning System (GPS) and protect the information using symmetric cryptography algorithm.
