Abstract
The increasing popularity of distributed web has promoted the development of new techniques to support various kinds of applications. However, users are faced with insecurity due to its inherent untrustworthiness. An identity (ID) authentication mechanism was presented. Using Kerberos protocol, Local web and Remote web could authenticate the client. If mutual authentication was required, client could also authenticate Local web and Remote web. Moreover, encryption function in the authentication process adopted Rijndael encryption algorithm of AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). Security analysis proves that this authentication process is no-impersonating and has highly availability, and also shows it is transparent and scalable and resisting attack.
