Abstract:
This paper deals with the possibility to employ the user’s time and space position information in the access management. Using the time and space information as new factors for authentication process is discussed in this paper. We have also considered the issues of indoor localization and possible application scenarios where these two additional authentication factors can be applied. We have developed the Multi-Factor Authentication Device (MAD I) together with active infrastructure, which is required for indoor users’ localization, to demonstrate the new main functions and advantages of adding time and space position to the user’s authentication factors. The main advantage of the MAD I is that the device helps the AAA system verify the user’s location in both main usages, i.e., indoor and outdoor environment.
