Abstract

This paper proposes a new authentication and authorization architecture based on a network smart cardwith identification purposes: ID-NSCard. Thus, a citizen who holds this kind of device might be securely authenticated by a remote authoritative server in an identification system. This work shows how the standardized specifications are transparently reused and integrated in the proposed architecture. Details of the protocol and authentication mechanisms are provided for a Case of Study: Spanish National Electronic ID Card.
