Architectural Analysis for Improving Security using LBS with ATAM

Almas Begum, V. Cyrilraj

Abstract


An increasing number of smart phones and PDA’s, allows people to use internet and often, store sensitive personal data , Mobile banking, Contact lists, information on Location(eg:GPS) and Sensor data. So smart phones need to protect data which is a challenging Security problem. Software architecture (evaluation) plays vital role in supporting the installation of multiple thirty party applications.

The objective of this paper is to propose an architecture for smart phones to provide security when using in LBS (Location Based Services) and analyzed above architecture with ATAM (Architectural Tradeoff Analysis Method).The main objective of ATAM is to make qualitative analysis on risks, sensitivity and trade-off points.
