C-MAS: The Cloud Mutual Authentication Scheme

Abstract

A cloud mutual authentication scheme (C-MAS) is proposed to solve the problem of authentication between user and cloud computing server. Trusted computing technology and traditional smart card methods are used in cloud computing service platform. The scheme completes the authentication of both sides in cloud computing, generates the session key according consulting, at the same time, verifies the credibility of cloud service platform. Analysis shows that our scheme can resist various kinds of possible attacks, so it is therefore more secure than other schemes. And the computing time meet the requirements of cloud computing environment.
