“…The recent progress in access control mechanisms is Risk-Adaptive-Access-Control, where the decision for access relies on dynamic assessment. There is a lot of knowledge on this subject in the existing research literature [34][35]. Moreover, risk-oriented access control solutions and authentication processes are considered in the access management policies.…”

“…This technique can protect users from stopping mechanical keystroke captures but renders them helpless against any concerning phishing attacks. The authors in the study of Chang and Choi [38] discussed access control and user authentication and tried to explore a significant problem and research challenges associated with it. The authors have studied the research gap and many directions for future research work.…”

By and large authentication systems employed for web-based applications primarily utilize a conventional username and password-based schemes, which can be compromised easily. Currently, there is an evolution of various complex user authentication schemes based on the sophisticated methodology of encryption. However, many of these schemes suffer from either low impact full consequences or offer security at higher resource dependence. Furthermore, the majority of these schemes don't consider dynamic threat and attack strategies when the clients are exposed to unidentified attack environments. Hence, this paper proposes a secure user authentication mechanism for web applications with a frictionless experience. An automated authentication scheme is designed based on user behaviour login events. The uniqueness of user identity is validated in the proposed system at the login interface, followed by implying an appropriate user authentication process. The authentication process is executed under four different login mechanisms, which depend on the profiler and the authenticator function. The profiler uses user behavioural data, including login session time, device location, browser, and details of accessed web services. The system processes these data and generates a user profile via a profiler using the authenticator function. The authenticator provides a login mechanism to the user to perform the authentication process. After successful login attempts, the proposed system updates database for future evaluation in the authentication process. The study outcome shows that the proposed system excels to other authentication schemes for an existing web-based application. The proposed method, when comparatively examined, is found to offer approximately a 10% reduction in delay, 7% faster response time, and 11% minimized memory usage compared with existing authentication schemes for premium web-based applications.

Emphasis on security for providing Access Control in Cloud computing environment plays a significant role. Cloud computing provides number of benefits such as resource sharing, low speculation and large storage space. Huge amount of information stored in cloud can be accessed from anywhere, anytime on pay-per use basis. Resources in cloud should be accessed only by the authorized clients. Access Control in cloud computing has become a critical issue due to increasing number of users experiencing dynamic changes. Authentication, authorization and approval of the access ensuring liability of entities from login credentials including passwords and biometric scan is essential. Also, the federated authentication management is secured. Current approaches require large-scale distributed access control in cloud environment. Data security and access control are the drawbacks in existing access control schemes. Due to the drawbacks in existing access control schemes such as privacy of information when susceptible information is stored in intermediary service provider a federated identity access management is essential. Access control applications majorly concentrate on Healthcare, Government Organizations, Commercial, Critical Infrastructure and Financial Institutions. This review illustrates a detailed study of access control models in cloud computing and various cloud identity management schemes.

Cloud computing is sprinkling widely the user and cloud service providers are enabled to use various resources or services inexpensively and simply without owning all the resources required. Cloud provides cost effective resource utilization and also it provides reliable and flexible usage of computing needs. IT companies are interested in migrating to cloud environment. Cloud computing provides various advantages such as lower computer costs, improved performance, data reliability, unlimited storage etc. Beyond the advantages of cloud computing, it has many issues in security, trust, scalability etc. Among these issues, security is the main issue in cloud environment. To solve this issues in cloud, this paper proposed a novel framework for Authentication as a Service (AaaS) in cloud computing. Authentication is provided as a Service to the cloud users. This paper also describes working components in the AaaS framework. It is an added advantage for Cloud Service Provider (CSP), when this framework is being adopted.
