    Entertainment industry is without a doubt, composed of a big part of the economy of a nation. Within our modern world where media such as movies, games, and music is considered dominant in our everyday lives, people often find ways to express themselves or even to get attention from others by using technologies. As of today, social media like Facebook and Twitter is almost within everybody’s reach. Due to the ease of accessibility as to the existence of mobile smartphones. To some, it may serve as chance for them to generate income. The huge amount of users of these mobile applications serves as a motivation for a whole lot of people in pursuing the latter idea. Not only that, it may serve as tool to promote oneself qualities and abilities, an assist to gain recognition and fame. Though, a generalized platform would be harder to manage as it will engender low focus onto the original targeted audience or costumers. Thus, a proposed system was designed to be a specific platform, particularly into music, to challenge the outcome that may come

    Authentication is used to enfold the privacy of the patient to implement security onto the communication between patients and service providers. Several types of research have proposed support for anonymity for contextual privacy in medical systems that are still vulnerable to impersonation attack and Man-in-the-middle attack. By using powerful technology that is used in medical facilities, it can help in building an advanced system. However, the same powerful tools can also be used by the attackers to gain personal profits and to cause chaos. The proposed countermeasure that is to be taken to prevent this kind of attacks is by implementing mutual authentication between users, their devices/mobile devices, and the system’s cloud server, and also a key agreement scheme together with the help of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). A novel authentication scheme which consists of two phases, a signature generation, and authentication process. The ECC implementation is to ensure that the keys are thoroughly secured and is not copy- able, together with a Key generation scheme that shields the system against impersonation attacks. The usage of Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA), in a signature generation, on the other hand, provides users more secure way to hide the user private key and bring additional security layer before proceeding to authentication phase due to the existence of extra elements of domain parameters. Authentication is still considered as a crucial component in maintaining the security of any critical facilities that require the CIA tried and non- repudiation as a need to maintain their data. It does not only apply to medical centers, but any organizations that possess valuable data that is needed to be protected also requires strong authentication protocols. Thus, the trend for the need of novel authentication protocols will keep on rising as technology gets fancier and fancier
