Abstract

© Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2002.The use of computers in public places is increasingly common in everyday life. In using one of these computers, a user is trusting it to correctly carry out her orders. For many transactions, particularly banking operations, blind trust in a public terminal will not satisfy most users. In this paper the aim is therefore to provide the user with authenticated communication between herself and a remote trusted computer, via the untrusted computer. After defining the authentication problem that is to be solved, this paper reduces it to a simpler problem. Solutions to the simpler problem are explored in which the user carries a trusted device with her. Finally, a description is given of two camera-based devices that are being developed.
