Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of operating a computing device, and in particular, to a method for secure operation of a computing device where a user needs to be authenticated, such as by entering a pass phrase, before the user is able to carry out a requested operation on the device.
  • the present invention also relates to a computing device arranged to operate according to the above method and also to computer software for causing a computing device to operate in accordance with the above method.
  • computing device as used herein is to be expansively construed to cover any form of electrical device and includes, data recording devices, such as digital still and movie cameras of any form factor, computers of any type or form, including hand held and personal computers, and communication devices of any form factor, including mobile phones, smart phones, communicators which combine communications, image recording and/or playback, and computing functionality within a single device, and other forms of wireless and wired information devices.
  • data recording devices such as digital still and movie cameras of any form factor
  • computers of any type or form including hand held and personal computers
  • communication devices of any form factor including mobile phones, smart phones, communicators which combine communications, image recording and/or playback, and computing functionality within a single device, and other forms of wireless and wired information devices.
  • Pretty Good Privacy is a computer program used to encrypt and decrypt communications over large networks such as the internet. It can also be used to send an encrypted digital signature that enables a receiver of a communication to verify the identity of a sender and know that the message was not changed en route.
  • PGP is the one of the most widely used privacy-ensuring programs.
  • PGP uses a variation of the public key system. In such systems, each user has a publicly known encryption key and a private key known only to that user. A message sent to a third party is encrypted using the public key for that party. When the encrypted message is received by the third party, it is decrypted using the private key for that party.
  • PGP uses a faster encryption algorithm to encrypt the message and then uses the public key to encrypt the shorter key that was used to encrypt the entire message. Both the encrypted message and the short key are sent to the receiver who first uses the private key of the receiver to decrypt the short key and then uses that key to decrypt the message.
  • encryption/decryption techniques are considered to be especially important in wireless communications because wireless circuits are often easier to “tap” than their hard-wired counterparts.
  • Authentication is the process of determining whether someone or something is, in fact, who or what it is declared to be.
  • authentication is commonly done through the use of logon passwords. Knowledge of the password is assumed to guarantee that the user is authentic.
  • Each user may register initially using an assigned or self-declared password. On each subsequent use, the user must know and use the previously declared password.
  • the weakness in this system for transactions that are significant, such as the exchange of money, is that passwords can often be stolen, accidentally revealed, or forgotten.
  • a pass phrase is used, in essence, as a digital signature to authenticate a person.
  • the pass phrase does, in fact, perform two purposes—it allows the key manager software to determine that the authorised user of the software is actually present (as only that user knows the PIN or pass phrase) and it confirms that the user wishes the key to be used.
  • the pass phrase is used to prove that the person claiming to have sent a message, or trying to gain access to an encrypted message, or trying to carry out a secure transaction such as a commercial purchase, is in fact that person. Because an improved level of security is required in comparison to that provided by a normal access password, the pass phrase is typically about 16 characters in length, and frequently these may be up to about 100 characters in length.
  • the pass phrase is usually a relatively lengthy sequence of alpha numeric characters and the repeated entry of the pass phrase each time user authentication is required is not considered to be convenient. If the pass phrase is a relatively lengthy alphanumeric sequence, or if pass phrase re-entry is requested too often, repeated authentication too frequently may even discourage the use of the encryption process by a user on occasions where its use would otherwise be considered particularly beneficial. Hence, to improve the user experience of the use of such systems, it is known not to require the user to authenticate again if the key is used a short time after a previous use of the key. This is referred as “pass phrase caching”. Pass phrase caching is one way of implementing the user experience in a way such that the key is “unlocked” for a predetermined period of time. It is only after the expiry of this period of time that further use of the key will require the authentication process to be repeated.
  • the pass phrase is cached for a predetermined time period; for example 30 minutes.
  • the following sequence of events may, as an example, be required of a user in order to carry a number of secure Operations
  • a method of operating a computing device comprising, in response to a request from a user to carry out an operation using the device, determining the time period since the identity of the user was authenticated, and enabling the requested operation in dependence upon the determined time period and the purpose of the requested operation.
  • a computing device arranged to operate in accordance with a method according to the first aspect.
  • a third aspect of the present invention there is provided computer software for causing a computing device in accordance with the second aspect to operate in accordance with a method according to the first aspect.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a flow chart of a method for authenticating a user in accordance with the present invention.
  • a computing device receives a request to carry out a secure operation, which can only be completed if the user is currently authenticated, such as by entry of a pass phrase.
  • the computing device determines the type of operation which the user has requested. For example, the user may be requesting to carry out approval of a purchase contract with significant financial obligations, in which case it is imperative to correctly identify the user and thus ensure that the user has the authority to commit to the financial obligations. This can be regarded as an operation requiring a high security level. Alternatively, the user may be requesting to carry out a relatively low security level operation, such as reading of an email.
  • the type of operation being requested may be determined in a number of ways, such as by determining the type of application used to carry out the operation, the type of file required, or even by analysing the content of the request itself. Many ways of determining the type of operation will be apparent to persons familiar to this art, and it is considered that the present invention can be applied to and therefore encompasses any method which can be used to categorise requested operations.
  • the computing device determines the time which has elapsed since the user was last authenticated by entering his/her pass phrase. With the present invention, the computing device then determines whether the time elapsed since authentication is acceptable for the operation being requested. This is shown as step 8 in FIG. 1 .
  • the reading of the email is a relatively low level secure operation and hence the ‘standard’ caching period, say one hour, is considered to be acceptable.
  • the time period elapsed since the last authentication is determined to be less than one hour and the pass phrase, and thus the identity of the user, is considered to be authentic. Therefore, the operation is enabled and this is shown as step 10 in FIG. 1 .
  • the system has been arranged such that for this type of operation the caching period expires upon the completion of the previous operation of the same type.
  • the computing device determines at step 8 that the time elapsed since the last authentication is not valid for the requested operation and requests, at step 12 of FIG. 1 , for the user to re-enter his/her pass phrase in order to authenticate the user for the particular contract approval operation. If the pass phrase is entered correctly, the user is authenticated and the time period is determined to be acceptable at step 8 and this high level secure operation is then enabled. After enabling the requested operation, the process ends at step 14 . It can be seen that the above process provides a more secure environment, but still enables one pass phrase to control the use of all keys.
  • Operation A is “decrypt and view my calendar entries for today”
  • Operation B is “sign a transaction to purchase a book”.
  • Operation A is in all probability going to be requested by the user many times during each working day and hence would be very annoying if the user has to type in his/her pass phrase every time the user wishes to consult the calendar entries for the day concerned. In essence, the user should only be required to enter his/her pass phrase once or possibly twice a day to carry out this operation.
  • Operation B is costing money, so the user will want to make ensure that a third party who may gain access to the computing device, which may be in the form of a mobile phone, cannot carry out any financial transaction, such as the purchase of books, so a relatively short caching time is set for this type of operation.
  • a third party who may gain access to the computing device, which may be in the form of a mobile phone, cannot carry out any financial transaction, such as the purchase of books, so a relatively short caching time is set for this type of operation.
  • the user does not want to have to enter his/her pass phrase for each transaction, but nevertheless requires to have a higher level of security than that provided by the caching time set for his/her calendar.
  • the user may want his/her pass phrase to permit use of Operation B for a relatively short time, say 3 minutes. So, in the present invention, the above operations may be conducted as follows:
  • the user is asked for his/her pass phrase only when it considered necessary according to the security of the operation that is about to be carried out and the time that has elapsed since the pass phrase was last entered, and not mechanically upon a time period fixed for a caching period which does not relate to the operations which may be carried out during the caching period. It is envisaged that the user will select the categories of operations, and the associated elapsed time periods so that the user may arrange never to have to re-enter the pass phrase in rapid succession.
  • the elapsed time is determined from the last or immediately preceding entry of the pass phrase.
  • this elapsed time may also be determined from a previous entry of the pass phrase which is not necessarily the last entry.
  • the invention has been described with reference to the use of pass phrases.
  • other methods for authenticating the user may also be employed, such as the use of pass words or PINs (Personal Identification Numbers), and/or biometric data, such as fingerprint or iris recognition.
