Abstract:
This paper is focused on location-based authentication and authorization in a network environment. We propose a new approach, where the user’s biometric credential and the user’s location are used. A basic framework for the MALBA (Multifactor Authentication and Location-based Authorization) is defined in the article. We describe processes of initial binding, authentication and authorization. Finally, the MAD I (Multifactor Authentication Device) is introduced. The MAD I provides user’s credentials for authentication and authorization processes. The user will get roles in the system dependent on his or her position.
