Certificate-based Single Sign-On Mechanism for Multi-Platform Distributed Systems
We propose a certificate-based single sign-on mechanism in distributed systems. The proposed security protocols and authentication mechanisms are integrated in a middleware. The novelty of our middleware lies on the use of XPCOM components, this way we provide a different services that can be used on every platform where Mozilla is available. The componen based architecture of the implemented services allows using the authentication components separately.
