“…It requires essential use of a trusted third party for anonymization, and anonymization; in turn serve as a barrier to user authentication (at LBS server end). Also, trusted third party becomes a single point of attack and bottleneck for the system [6]. These limitations can be conquered using zero-knowledge interactive proof systems.…”

“…The certificate generated by middleware (on client's request) is given to client which in turn, handovers it to LSP while asking for the service (figure 1). The encrypted certificate fulfills the authentication and authorization requirements at the LSP servers [6]. This method of authentication can be compared with zero knowledge proof (ZKP) in the manner below:…”

“…The goal of PackMime-HTTP is to simulate the internet traffic generated between a cloud of clients and a cloud of servers rather than focusing on traffic between a single client and a server. This model is used along with the delay boxes to introduce delay at different components of network [6]. The criteria for simulation are response time, security, reliability, overall performance etc.…”

“…On one side it is solving the problem of middleware being bottleneck (as after generating the certificate, every request and response will be received to and sent by the LSP directly) and on the other side it provides a zero knowledge proof solution to authentication and authorization. A prototype of the proposed system was implemented for Point of Interest (POI) search as an example application [6]. The advanced Java technology mainly JSP, Servlets and Struts are used as main building blocks of the prototype software system.…”

“…Every data set in simulation is run and tested at least 5 times, so that error factor (if any) can be taken care of. Systems are compared for different scenarios such as Response Time, Delay and Drop rate with variable number of clients and variable requests/response sizes [6].…”

The increasing trend of embedding positioning capabilities (e.g., GPS) in mobile devices facilitates the widespread use of Location Based Services. For such applications to succeed, privacy and confidentiality are key issues. Over all privacy will have to be managed through a combination of technology, legislation, corporate policy, and social norms. There are many data privacy schemes including Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) those can be used for location privacy. ZKP is also useful for removing the bottleneck problem introduced by use of trusted third party. In the earlier work, authors proposed the concept of middleware architecture in which, request and response are not routed through middleware for every transaction. This has reduced the dependency on middleware. This paper presents correspondence between the authentication techniques used in above said architecture and zero knowledge proof technique. Use of the concept of zero knowledge proof for authentication and authorization in the domain of location based services is also explored.keywords -Zero knowledge proof, location privacy, authentication and authorization, middleware architecture
