Abstract: Nowadays, connected devices are growing exponen-tially; their produced data traffic has increased unprecedent-edly. Information systems security and cybersecurity are critical because data typically contain sensitive personal information, requiring high data protection. An authentication system manages and controls access to this data allowing the system to ensure the legitimacy of the access request. Most of the current identification and authentication systems are based on a centralized architec-ture. However, some concepts as Cloud computing and Blockchain use respectively distributed and decentralized architectures. Users without a central server will own platforms and applications of the next generation of Internet and Web3. This paper proposes AuSDiDe, a new authentication system for the distributed and decentralized structure. This solution aims to divide and share keys toward different and distributed nodes. The main objective of AuSDiDe is to securely store and manage passwords, private keys, and authentication based on the Shamir secret sharing algo-rithm. This new proposal significantly reinforces data protection in information security.
