  5. Identity Management (IDM) • IDM in traditional application-centric IDM model • Each service keeps track of identifying information of its users. • Existing IDM Systems • Microsoft Windows CardSpace [W. A. Alrodhan] • OpenID [http://openid.net] • PRIME [S. F. Hubner, Karlstad Univ] These systems require atrusted third party and do not work on an untrusted host. If Trusted Third Party is compromised, all the identifying information of the users is also compromised leading to serious problems like Identity Theft. [Latest:AT&T iPad leak]

  6. IDM in Cloud Computing • Cloud introduces several issues for IDM • Collusion between Cloud Services • Users have multiple accounts associated with multiple service providers. • Sharing sensitive identity information among services can lead to undesirable mapping of the identities to the user. • Lack of trust • Cloud hosts are untrusted • Use of Trusted Third Party is not an option • Loss of control • Service-centric IDM Model IDM in Cloud needs to be user-centric

  7. Goals of Proposed User-Centric IDM for the Cloud • Authenticate without disclosing identifying information • Ability to securely use a service while on an untrusted host (VM on the cloud) • Minimal disclosure and minimized risk of disclosure during communication between user and service provider (Man in the Middle, Side Channel and Correlation Attacks) • Independence from Trusted Third Party for identity information

  8. Mechanisms in Proposed IDM • Active Bundle [L. Othmane, R. Ranchal] • Anonymous Identification [A. Shamir] • Computing Predicates with encrypted data [E. Shi] • Multi-Party Computing [A. Shamir] • Selective Disclosure [B. Laurie]

  9. Active Bundle • Active bundle (AB) • An encapsulating mechanism protectingdatacarried withinit • Includes data • Includes metadataused for managing confidentiality • Both privacy of data and privacy of the whole AB • Includes Virtual Machine (VM) • performing a set of operations • protectingits confidentiality • Active Bundles—Operations • Self-Integrity check E.g., Uses a hash function • Evaporation/ Filtering Self-destroys (a part of) AB’s sensitive data when threatened with a disclosure • Apoptosis Self-destructs AB’s completely

  10. Active Bundle Scheme • Metadata: • Access control policies • Data integrity checks • Dissemination policies • Life duration • ID of a trust server • ID of a security server • App-dependent information • … • E(Name) • E(E-mail) • E(Password) • E(Shipping Address) • E(Billing Address) • E(Credit Card) • … • Sensitive Data: • Identity Information • ... • Virtual Machine (algorithm): • Interprets metadata • Checks active bundle integrity • Enforces access and dissemination control policies • … * E( ) - Encrypted Information

  11. Anonymous Identification • Use of Zero-knowledge proofing for user authentication without disclosing its identifier. User on Amazon Cloud ZKP Interactive Protocol User Request for service Function f and number k • E-mail • Password fk(E-mail, Password) = R • E-mail • Password Authenticated

  12. Interaction using Active Bundle AB information disclosure Active Bundle Destination User Application Active Bundle Active Bundle Creator Active Bundle (AB) Audit Services Agent (ASA) Security Services Agent (SSA) Directory Facilitator Trust Evaluation Agent (TEA) Active Bundle Coordinator Active Bundle Services

  13. Predicate over Encrypted Data • Verification without disclosing unencrypted identity data. Predicate Request* • E-mail • Password • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) • E(Billing Address) • E(Credit Card) • E(Name) • E(Billing Address) • E(Credit Card) • *Age Verification Request • *Credit Card Verification Request

  14. Multi-Party Computing • To become independent of a trusted third party • Multiple Services hold shares of the secret key • Minimize the risk Predicate Request • E(Name) • E(Billing Address) • E(Credit Card) K’1 K’2 K’3 K’n Key Management Services • * Decryption of information is handled by the Key Management services

  15. Multi-Party Computing • To become independent of a trusted third party • Multiple Services hold shares of the secret key • Minimize the risk Predicate Reply* • Name • Billing Address • Credit Card K’1 K’2 K’3 K’n Key Management Services • *Age Verified • *Credit Card Verified

  16. Selective Disclosure • User Policies in the Active Bundle dictate dissemination Selective disclosure* • E-mail • Password • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) • E(Billing Address) • E(Credit Card) • E-mail • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) *e-bay shares the encrypted information based on the user policy

  17. Selective Disclosure Selective disclosure* • E-mail • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) *e-bay seller shares the encrypted information based on the user policy

  18. Selective Disclosure Selective disclosure • E-mail • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) • Name • Shipping Address • Decryption handled by Multi-Party Computing as in the previous slides

  19. Selective Disclosure Selective disclosure • E-mail • E(Name) • E(Shipping Address) • Name • Shipping Address • Fed-Ex can now send the package to the user

  20. Identity revealed in the Cloud User on Amazon Cloud • E-mail • Password • Name • Billing Address • Credit Card • Name • E-mail • Password • Billing Address • Shipping Address • Credit Card • E-mail • Name • Shipping Address

  21. Characteristics and Advantages • Ability to use Identity data on untrusted hosts • Self Integrity Check • Integrity compromised- apoptosis or evaporation • Data should not be on this host • Establishes the trust of users in IDM • Through putting the user in control of who has his data and how is is used • Identity is being used in the process of authentication, negotiation, and data exchange. • Independent of Third Party for Identity Information • Minimizes correlation attacks • Minimal disclosure to the SP • SP receives only necessary information.

  22. Conclusion & Future Work • Problems with IDM in Cloud Computing • Collusion of Identity Information • Prohibited Untrusted Hosts • Usage of Trusted Third Party • Proposed Approaches • IDM based on Anonymous Identification • IDM based on Predicate over Encrypted data • IDM based on Multi-Party Computing • Future work • Develop the prototype, conduct experiments and evaluate the approach

  24. Thank you! Any question?

  25. Approach - 1 • IDM Wallet: • Use of AB scheme to protect PII from untrusted hosts. • Anonymous Identification: • Use of Zero-knowledge proofing for authentication of an entity without disclosing its identifier.

  26. Components of Active Bundle (Approach – 1) • Identity data: Data used during authentication, getting service, using service (i.e. SSN, Date of Birth). • Disclosure policy: A set of rules for choosing Identity data from a set of identities in IDM Wallet. • Disclosure history: Used for logging and auditing purposes. • Negotiation policy: This is Anonymous Identification, based on the Zero Knowledge Proofing. • Virtual Machine: Code for protecting data on untrusted hosts. It enforces the disclosure policies.

  27. Anonymous Identification (Approach – 1) Anonymous Identification (Shamir's approach for Credit Cards) • IdP provides Encrypted Identity Information to the user and SP. • SP and User interact • Both run IdP's public function on the certain bits of the Encrypted data. • Both exchange results and agree if it matches.

  28. Usage Scenario (Approach – 1)

  29. Approach - 2 • Active Bundle scheme to protect PII from untrusted hosts • Predicates over encrypted data to authenticate without disclosing unencrypted identity data. • Multi-party computing to be independent of a trusted third party

  30. Usage Scenario (Approach – 2) • Owner O encrypts Identity Data(PII) using algorithm Encrypt and O’s public key PK. Encrypt outputs CT—the encrypted PII. • SP transforms his request for PII to a predicate represented by function p. • SP sends shares of p to the n parties who hold the shares of MSK. • n parties execute together KeyGen using PK, MSK, and p, and return TKp to SP. • SP calls the algorithm Query that takes as input PK, CT, TKp and produces p(PII) which is the evaluation of the predicate. • The owner O is allowed to use the service only when the predicate evaluates to “true”.

  31. Representation of identity information for negotiation • Token/Pseudonym • Identity Information in clear plain text • Active Bundle

  32. Motivation: Authentication Process using PII Problem: Which information to disclose and how to disclose it.
