Security Issues in Pervasive Computing
Abstract
The change in physical structures of computing facilities into small and portable devices, or even wearable computers, has enhanced ubiquitous information processing. The basic paradigm of such pervasive computing is the combination of strongly decentralized and distributed computing with the help of diversified devices allowing for spontaneous connectivity via the Internet. In general, pervasive computing strives to simplify day-to-day life by providing mobile users with the means to carry out personal and business tasks via mobile and portable devices. This chapter examines the security challenges that are barriers to mainstream pervasive computing and explains why traditional security mechanisms fail to meet the demands of these environments.
