Abstract EN
In the field of cloud computing, most research on identity management has concentrated on protecting user data.
However, users typically leave a trail when they access cloud services, and the resulting user traceability can potentially lead to the leakage of sensitive user information.
Meanwhile, malicious users can do harm to cloud providers through the use of pseudonyms.
To solve these problems, we introduce a reputation mechanism and design a reputation-based identity management model for cloud computing.
In the model, pseudonyms are generated based on a reputation signature so as to guarantee the untraceability of pseudonyms, and a mechanism that calculates user reputation is proposed, which helps cloud service providers to identify malicious users.
Analysis verifies that the model can ensure that users access cloud services anonymously and that cloud providers assess the credibility of users effectively without violating user privacy.
