Since our scheme additionally contains a pre-computation phase, the computation cost of the smart cards is very low.
In this paper we first propose a fingerprint-based user authentication scheme which checks the suitability of user to the policy of contents provider. In aspect to technical efforts, it is required to provide an access control according to the policy of content provider. Specially, to protect young children from a misusage of harmfulness contents, the legal and technical efforts are also required in IPTV. Since many contents contain classifiable elements such as violence, sex, coarse language, themes and drug use, we should classify contents with ages and restrict an access ability of a user according to user's age. Authentication schemes between a smart card and set-top-box(STB) for authenticating users have been proposed in IPTV environment. N2 - In IPTV environments, a user authentication is an important security primitive to check the validity of membership. T1 - A fingerprint-based user authentication scheme using smart cards in IPTV environments And, the proposed scheme can also solve vulnerabilities against security problems such as smart card cloning and McCormac Hack attack in IPTV environment.", And, the proposed scheme can also solve vulnerabilities against security problems such as smart card cloning and McCormac Hack attack in IPTV environment.Ībstract = "In IPTV environments, a user authentication is an important security primitive to check the validity of membership.
