Download or read book Identity Crisis written by Jim Harper and published by Cato Institute. This book was released on 2006-05-25 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advance of identification technology-biometrics, identity cards, surveillance, databases, dossiers-threatens privacy, civil liberties, and related human interests. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, demands for identification in the name of security have increased. In this insightful book, Jim Harper takes readers inside identification-a process everyone uses every day but few people have ever thought about. Using stories and examples from movies, television, and classic literature, Harper dissects identification processes and technologies, showing how identification works when it works and how it fails when it fails. Harper exposes the myth that identification can protect against future terrorist attacks. He shows that a U.S. national identification card, created by Congress in the REAL ID Act, is a poor way to secure the country or its citizens. A national ID represents a transfer of power from individuals to institutions, and that transfer threatens liberty, enables identity fraud, and subjects people to unwanted surveillance. Instead of a uniform, government-controlled identification system, Harper calls for a competitive, responsive identification and credentialing industry that meets the mix of consumer demands for privacy, security, anonymity, and accountability. Identification should be a risk-reducing strategy in a social system, Harper concludes, not a rivet to pin humans to governmental or economic machinery.

Download or read book Playing the Identity Card written by Colin J Bennett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National identity cards are in the news. While paper ID documents have been used in some countries for a long time, today's rapid growth features high-tech IDs with built-in biometrics and RFID chips. Both long-term trends towards e-Government and the more recent responses to 9/11 have prompted the quest for more stable identity systems. Commercial pressures mix with security rationales to catalyze ID development, aimed at accuracy, efficiency and speed. New ID systems also depend on computerized national registries. Many questions are raised about new IDs but they are often limited by focusing on the cards themselves or on "privacy." Playing the Identity Card shows not only the benefits of how the state can "see" citizens better using these instruments but also the challenges this raises for civil liberties and human rights. ID cards are part of a broader trend towards intensified surveillance and as such are understood very differently according to the history and cultures of the countries concerned.

Download or read book Identity based Cryptography written by Marc Joye and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What if your public key was not some random-looking bit string, but simply your name or email address? This idea, put forward by Adi Shamir back in 1984, still keeps cryptographers busy today. Some cryptographic primitives, like signatures, were easily adapted to this new "identity-based" setting, but for others, including encryption, it was not until recently that the first practical solutions were found. The advent of pairings to cryptography caused a boom in the current state-of-the-art is this active subfield from the mathematical background of pairing and the main cryptographic constructions to software and hardware implementation issues. This volume bundles fourteen contributed chapters written by experts in the field, and is suitable for a wide audience of scientists, grad students, and implementors alike." --Book Jacket.

Download or read book Digital Identity Management written by David Birch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost every organization in the future, both public and private sector, identity management presents both significant opportunities and risks. Successfully managed, it will allow everyone to access products and services that are tailored to their needs and their behaviours. But successful management implies that organizations will have overcome the significant obstacles of security, individual human rights and social concern that could cause the whole process to become mired. Digital Identity Management, based on the work of the annual Digital Identity Forum in London, provides a wide perspective on the subject and explores the current technology available for identity management, its applications within business, and its significance in wider debates about identity, society and the law. This is an essential introduction for organizations seeking to use identity to get closer to customers; for those in government at all levels wrestling with online delivery of targeted services; as well as those concerned with the wider issues of identity, rights, the law, and the potential risks.

Download or read book z OS Identity Propagation written by Karan Singh and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This IBM® Redbooks® publication explores various implementations of z/OS® Identity Propagation where the distributed identity of an end user is passed to z/OS and used to map to a RACF® user ID, and any related events in the audit trail from RACF show both RACF and distributed identities. This book describes the concept of identity propagation and how it can address the end-to end accountability issue of many customers. It describes, at a high level, what identity propagation is, and why it is important to us. It shows a conceptual view of the key elements necessary to accomplish this. This book provides details on the RACMAP function, filter management and how to use the SMF records to provide an audit trail. In depth coverage is provided about the internal implementation of identity propagation, such as providing information about available callable services. This book examines the current exploiters of z/OS Identity Propagation and provide several detailed examples covering CICS® with CICS Transaction Gateway, DB2®, and CICS Web services with Datapower.
Download or read book Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using Identity Based Cryptography written by Harsh Kupwade Patil and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Security for Wireless Sensor Networks using Identity-Based Cryptography introduces identity-based cryptographic schemes for wireless sensor networks. It starts with an exhaustive survey of the existing layered approach to WSN security—detailing its pros and cons. Next, it examines new attack vectors that exploit the layered approach to security. After providing the necessary background, the book presents a cross-layer design approach that addresses authentication, integrity, and encryption. It also examines new ID-based key management mechanisms using a cross-layer design perspective. In addition, secure routing algorithms using ID-based cryptography are also discussed. Supplying readers with the required foundation in elliptic curve cryptography and identity-based cryptography, the authors consider new ID-based security solutions to overcome cross layer attacks in WSN. Examining the latest implementations of ID-based cryptography on sensors, the book combines cross-layer design principles along with identity-based cryptography to provide you with a new set of security solutions that can boost storage, computation, and energy efficiency in your wireless sensor networks.
