The huge adoption of Mobile Governance services in both the developed and developing countries attracted many cyber criminals. Existing Mobile Governance frameworks are vulnerable at the user level, communication level and cloud level, so cyber criminals exploit many attack surfaces which includes User Credentials, Mobile Application Integrity, Hardware/Device Integrity and communication security. Existing Mobile Government solutions needs to ensure security at rest, during transmission and at the cloud side, in addition to these Mobile Government solutions needs to be ensure forensics readiness. This paper proposes a Community Cloud based Secure Mobile Government (CCSMG) Framework which ensures security at User level, Mobile Application Integrity, Hardware or Device Integrity and communication security, in addition to these our proposed CCSMG framework ensures security at the cloud side and ensures forensics readiness. Proposed protocol has less computational cost and energy cost. CCSMG protocol is verified using Burrows–Abadi–Needham (BAN) logic. CCSMG Framework is threat modeled and implemented successfully.
