Title:
Location-Proof System based on Secure Multi-Party Computations
Authors: Aurélien Dupin, Jean-Marc Robert, Christophe Bidan
Abstract:Location-based services are now quite popular. The variety of applications and their numerous users show it clearly. However, these applications rely on the persons’ honesty to use their real location. If they are motivated to lie about their position, they can do so. A location-proof system allows a prover to obtain proofs from nearby witnesses, for being at a given location at a given time. Such a proof can be used to convince a verifier later on. Yet, provers and witnesses may want to keep their location and their identity private. In this paper, a solution is presented in which a malicious adversary, acting as a prover, cannot cheat on his position and remain undetected. It relies on multi-party computations and group-signature schemes to protect the private information of both the prover and the witnesses against any semi-honest participant.
