Hardware Based Security in Pervasive Computing Environments

The purpose of pervasive computing is anywhere and anytime access to information within computing infrastructures. Pervasive computing poses new security challenges while the information is reachable at anywhere and anytime and it may be applied by malicious users. Additionally, in some special environments such as a military domicile exchanged data between devices may contain private information that cannot be shared by all user communities. Several approaches are developed to protect information for pervasive environments against strangers. As Hardware based security solutions in most fields of technology can offer greater assurance, in this paper, we present a hardware based security usage in pervasive computing environments, which provides more security in comparison with software program based encryptions. The model not only make appropriate decisions about nodes access rights, but also provides trustworthiness security for pervasive computing and protects the information from software based attacks. Finally, the security degree of the model is analyzed.
