Location & User Profile based Mobile Application Access

With the rapid increase in computational power, features availability and storage capacity, smart phones have become part of the livelihood of many youngsters and students. Institutions responsibility has increased to ensure the access permissions and security. In this paper we present a policy-based application LUPMAA for enforcing security and access profiles of applications and data on the Android platform. In this, it is possible to define distinct Access and Security Profiles among the users of the Wi-Fi within an organization. Each Access profile defines a set of policies that control the access to applications and data. Profiles are predefined; they can be specified, modified and applied at any time. One of the main characteristics of LUPMAA is the dynamic switching from one profile to another based on the timings and location of access of the Wi-Fi.
