Authentication of users in computerized environments at SME - biometrics versus tokens : A comparison of two ways to implement authentication of users (English)
Abstract [sv]

Allt eftersom mer och mer information sparas på datorer så ökar även trycket på att denna information sparas säkert, och att endast behöriga personer kommer åt den.Syftet med arbetet var att se vilka skillnader som finns mellan biometri och tokens, och vilka skillnader som små till medelstora företag borde ta i beaktande när de väljer en autentiseringsmetod. Det förväntade resultatet var då en beskrivning, i form av ett ramverk, över vilka för- och nackdelar som finns med de två metoderna, och således vilken metod som ett enskilt företag som använder ramverket borde använda sig utav.Arbetet genomfördes via en litteraturstudie, i vilket tre databaser användes för att samla information. IEEEXplore, ACM Digital Library, och ScienceDirect var de tre databaser som användes för arbetet. I dessa identifierades ett antal artiklar, som delades upp i kodade kategorier utefter innehåll. Detta i syfte att utföra en tematisk kodad analys.Totalt identifierades 28 artiklar i de olika databaserna. I dessa artiklar identifierades kostnad, säkerhet, integritet, och användarvänlighet som några av de mesta omtalade ämnena. 7 utav de 28 artiklarna pratade om kostnad, 20 av artiklarna nämnde säkerhet, 5 nämnde integritet, och 9 pratade om användarvänlighet. Det fanns även ett antal mindre teman i tvåfaktorsautentisering, skalbarhet, typer av biometri, typer av tokens, och framtida teknologi inom biometri.Efter genomförd analys formulerades ett ramverk i vilket ett smått till medelstort företag kan se vilken metod av autentisering som passar deras företag bäst.

Abstract [en]

As technology evolves, corporations and enterprises are forced to evolve alongside it. Storing company information and data on servers and computers have become common practice.Initially, the goal with the work presented was to compare biometric authentication and token authentication in relation so SMEs. In the current landscape there is no comprehensive study in these two methods of authentication in relation to SMEs. A framework was developed for system administrators to use when choosing one of these methods of authentication. The framework is a summarization of the works analytical part.A literature study was conducted to reach the goal. Three databases were used as sources of information. These three were namely IEEEXplore, ACM Digital Library, and ScienceDirect. From these sources, literature was identified on which the study was then based. Thematic coding was used to analyze the collected data.After the process of collecting and including/excluding was complete, a total of 28 articles remained. From these articles a total of 10 themes were identified from the thematic coding. These themes were cost, integrity, usability, security pros, security cons, two-factor authentication, scalability, biometric types, token types, and future biometric technology. Four of these were more prevalent, namely cost, integrity, usability, and security.After the analysis was finished the themes that emerged as important were integrity and usability. Because of this, the framework is heavily influenced by these themes and they are particularly important for system administrators to consider.
