A Secure and Robust Cloud-based Prototype for Online Transaction using Android Mobile Devices

The current scenario of mobile application based payment processes requires web or mobile channel which can be applicable for authenticating the identity of a remote user. Most of the current activities such as online banking, online shopping, etc. are configured with mobile devices. Since the applicability of mcommerce included various financial transactions along with personal details sharing, therefore, the vulnerability of performing attacks and threats by users have increased. The current research trend highlights that multi-factorial authentication techniques can be reinstalled on other devices, for overcoming this situation. This study introduces an android application based multi-level security model which is very lightweight, user-friendly, and distributed application to overcome the security issues in m-commerce platforms. Each module is made up of several supportive modules performing various operations and contributing to the performance enhancement of the proposed system. The performance evaluation of the proposed system ensures cost effectiveness regarding resource allocation and highly secure environment for online transactions using a trusted third party.
