Abstract
Location based encryption enhances security by
integrating position and time into encryption and
decryption processes. We find that from a security
perspective, it is not enough to simply enable or disable
decryption based on location and time; these aspects must
be integrated into the key construction process.
Furthermore, keys or files in transit should not reveal
anything regarding their locations/times of applicability.
After reviewing the objectives of location-based
encryption, this paper introduces a specific approach
called geo-encryption.
