Abstract
The exchange of user-related sensitive data within a Pervasive Computing Environment (PCE) raises security and privacy concerns. On one hand, service providers require user authentication and authorization prior to the provision of a service, while at the same time users require anonymity, , untraceability and unlinkability for their transactions. In this paper we discuss privacy and security requirements for access control in PCEs and show why a recently proposed efficient scheme [1] fails to satisfy these requirements. Furthermore, we discuss a generic approach for achieving a desired level of privacy against malicious insiders, while balancing with competing demands for access control and accountability.
