| Abstract |
It is envisaged that in future mobile ubiquitous environments, users will be able to seamlessly, search, access and consume a rich offering of services and content from an array of service/content providers, whilst they are on the move, anytime, anywhere. Unfortunately, this new computing paradigm also brings along new and unique security challenges. Novel security solutions are therefore required. But, in order for appropriate security solutions to be devised, all possible security threats must first be thoroughly analysed, and the corresponding security requirements be identified. In this paper, we examine the security issues germane to a mobile ubiquitous environment. We then suggest some possible solutions which may be employed to address these security issues. Open research issues are also highlighted |
