Fingerprint authentication system for baas protocol

Abstract

Over the past many years, several corporations have benefited from the implementation of cloud solutions among the organization. Due to the advantages such as flexibility, mobility, and cost saving, the number of cloud users is expected to grow rapidly. Consequently, organizations want a secure system, credit to manifest its users so as to make sure the practicality of their services and information hold on within the cloud storages are managed in a private environment. In the current approaches, the user authentication in cloud computing is predicated on the credentials submitted by the user like secret, token and digital certificate. Unfortunately, these credentials can often be stolen, accidentally revealed, or hard to remember. In view of this, we propose a fingerprint-based authentication system to support the user authentication for the cloud environment. We take into account a distributed state of affairs wherever the biometric templates are hold on within the cloud storage, whereas the user authentication is performed without the leak of any sensitive information.
