Policy-based Authentication Framework in Ubiquitous Computing Environment

In this paper, we propose policy-based authentication framework which consists of policy server, CA and a policy language designed for ubiquitous environments. Using policies allows the security functionality to be modified without changing the implementation of the entities involved. Policy-based authentication framework needs to be very expressive but lightweight and easily extensible. We propose the feasibility of our policy language and policy-based authentication framework in ubiquitous-environment through a prototype and solve the problem that traditional framework have a simple registration and authentication to provide dynamic service.
