Abstract EN
The rapid growth in the use of smartphones and tablets has changed the software distribution ecosystem.
The trend today is to purchase software through application stores rather than from traditional offline markets.
Smartphone and tablet users can install applications easily by purchasing from the online store deployed in their device.
Several systems, such as Android or PC-based OS units, allow users to install software from multiple sources.
Such openness, however, can promote serious threats, including malware and illegal usage.
In order to prevent such threats, several stores use online authentication techniques.
These methods can, however, also present a problem whereby even licensed users cannot use their purchased application.
In this paper, we discuss these issues and provide an authentication method that will make purchased applications available to the registered user at all times.
