Share the secret: enabling location privacy in ubiquitous environments

摘要: Anonymity and location privacy in mobile pervasive environments has been receiving increasing attention during the last few years, several mechanisms architectures have proposed to prevent “big brother” phenomena. In this paper we present a novel architecture shield of user preserve anonymity on service delivery. This architecture, called “Share Secret – STS”, uses totally un-trusted entities distribute portions anonymous information, authorizes other combine these derive user. STS simply divides secret, as lightweight scheme it can be applied network nodes illustrating low processing computational power, such an ad-hoc network, smart gadgets sensors.
