New Location-Based Authentication Techniques in the Access Management

In this paper, new space-time authentication techniques are proposed. Location-based authentication is a new direction in development of authentication techniques. At the first part advantages of location-based authentication are introduced. In the second chapter the main aspects of using user´s position information are discussed, as user´s mobility and user´s privacy. The main part of the paper is focused on introducing of two new proposed authentication techniques. The first technique called STAT I (Space-Time Authentication Technique) uses GPS system for a position determination. The second technique (STAT II) uses proprietary communication technology IQRF for a position determination. Both newly designed authentication techniques use a pocket device described in the final section of the paper.
