The process of identifying and authenticating people is considered to be a crucial task nowadays. However, this ease of use comes with its own problems; like identity theft and identity fraud. Which, might be exploited by means like; the collusion of a corrupt authenticating organization, or internal fraud within the authenticating organization, or by a manipulative majority in case of multiple-authenticators. The proposed system will be an attempt to deflect such cases by establishing an unbiased organizational authentication system.
This work illustrates a design of a hybrid authenticating system that does not have a single actor that carries out the whole authentication process. Instead, it will borrow the concept of authenticating peers from the block-chain technology and utilize it with the architecture of centralized authenticating system. Security analysis of the proposed system shows its effectiveness against various types of attacks and scenarios.
