Abstract:
With the rapid evolution of next generation networks, telecommunication field are evolving towards user-centric approach. In fact, users demand the access to any service without any technical, temporal or geographical barrier. This approach permits user to personalize their services and have a unique, dynamic and seamless session despite heterogeneity and mobility of his environment. In this context, many security issues arise. In order to overcome security challenges while respecting user-centric requirements, we propose in this paper a new security architecture that is based on a set of service components. These components ensure a secured and simplified service access in a unique and seamless session. They should be reusable, interoperable, autonomous, mutualizable, interconnected and self-managed in order to participate in a secure, personalized and dynamic service composition. We describe at the end of this paper an application scenario and show the feasibility of our proposition.
