a novel client-based approach for signing and checking web forms by using xml against dos attacks
In parallel to rapid growth of internet technologies, security becomes more critical in various real life applications such as e-finance, e-health, and e-government. These applications strictly require data authentication mechanisms. To address this essential issue, we grasp the idea of client based authenticity for interactive web technologies. We proposed a novel client based web form signing and checking with XML data structure method. Our method specifically uses XML structure for the involvement of data exchange between web applications. Our method curbs the DoS (Denial of Service) attacks for protection of the server. In order to illustrate our ideas, we adapted our digital signature mechanism on health related forms with two commonly used web browsers.
