Proposed anonymous authentication scheme for academic service in the university

The paper discusses about anonymous authentication system for academic service in the university. The anonymous authentication system is proposed to apply in the university to protect the students' identity when they report academic misconduct in the university system. Generally the system is designed and developed using two sub-systems namely the system for user management and the system for file management feedback submitted by students. The “User Management” system facilitates users for new enrollment, registration verification, and key distribution to system users. Whereas “Student Feedback” system facilitates users in making feedback, encrypting and description of files, and sending feedback. The file encryption process used the Attribute-Based Encryption (ABE) algorithm. Both systems will be integrated using the secret API. The testing process in this study used data of Udayana University's community service participants in year 2016. The tests were conducted on anonymous authentication process, encryption process and file description, key distribution process, and feedback process and feedback status. The evaluation showed good results. This is indicated that the user authentication process can be done in just 4.6 seconds, and the process of sending feedback within 6.4 seconds.
