Abstract
Software as a Service (SaaS) provides a useful and convenient way for cloud users to enjoy cloud service, but security problems have caused great influence on the development and popularization of SaaS. As a commercial model, SaaS involves different roles of participants who could be dishonest and malicious. This paper presents a security protocol to address several security issues in SaaS and protect the rights and interests of all participants. Our design is based on identity-based proxy signatures from pairings. The analysis shows that the presented protocol can effectively strengthen the security of SaaS in cloud computing.
软件即服务(Software as a Service, SaaS)为云用户享受云服务提供了一种实用便捷的方式,但安全问题对SaaS的发展和普及造成了很大影响。作为一种商业模型,SaaS涉及到不同角色的参与者,他们可能是不诚实的和恶意的。本文提出了一种安全协议,以解决SaaS中的几个安全问题,保护所有参与者的权益。我们的设计基于来自对的基于身份的代理签名。分析表明,该协议可以有效地增强云计算环境下SaaS的安全性。
