현재 웹에서는 공개키 암호 알고리즘을 이용한 일반적인 전자서명을 사용하고 있으나 웹에서 표준화가 되어 가고 있는 XML을 이용한 전자서명 기법이 W3C에서 제안되어 표준화가 진행되고 있다. 이는 SGML의 부분집합으로서 문서의 내용에 관련된 태그를 사용자가 직접 정의할 수 있다. 이런 확장성이 뛰어난 XML을 이용하여 기업 간에 사용되는 EDI 문서를 표현함으로써 업무처리시간 및 비용을 절감하고, 품질을 향상시키기 위한 대안으로 많은 기업들이 EDI 시스템을 사용하여 인터넷으로 인해 세계 어느 곳에서나 필요한 정보를 볼 수 있게 되었다. 이러한 시스템들은 네트워크를 통해 정보가 전달되므로 보안에 아주 예민하다. XML 표준전자문서의 인중이나 신뢰성이 보장되지 않는다면, 전송중 문서의 조작, 도청 및 오용 등과 같은 위험 때문에 그 사용이 제한된다. 본 논문에서는 그러한 위협을 방지하고 XML 표준전자문서의 신뢰성 있는 전송을 보장차기 위하여 전자 문서 교환에 있어서 중요하다고 할 수 있는 XML 전자서명 시스템에 대하여 연구하였다.

This paper has presented three types of key recovery methods, which are known as key escrow, key encapsulation, and trusted third party scheme. we have analyzed the existing key recovery products, which have been developed by the advanced nations for electronic commerce and electronic government. we have also analyzed the key recovery policies proposed by the advanced nations, such as The United States of America, Great Britain, and Japan. In this paper, several key recovery policies are proposed for the e-commerce and e-government system. And we have proposed key recovery scheme for the e-commerce system utilizing the on-line secret sharing scheme based on the Internet and public bulletin board.

e-Passport system is new type of emigration and immigration control system and it is a research to introduce the e-Passport Authentication Protocol with Improved Efficiency is lively proceeded over the entire world. The e-Passport's chip has a biometric information and personal identification information, Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) technology is used for communication with the Inspection System(IS). However, the feature of the RFID system may bring about various security threats such as eavesdropping, data forgeries, data alternation, cloning, biometric data-leakage. Therefore, in this paper, we analyse the e-Passport system's authentication protocol to protect vulnerability and proposed e-Passport system's authentication protocol reduce computation. Also, we compared their efficiency.

IP over Ethernet technology widely used as Internet access uses the ARP(Address Resolution Protocol) that translates an ip address to the corresponding MAC address. recently, there are ARP security attacks that intentionally modify the IP address and its corresponding MAC address, utilizing various tools like "snoopspy". Since ARP attacks can redirect packets to different MAC address other than destination, attackers can eavesdrop packets, change their contents, or hijack the connection. Because the ARP attack is performed at data link layer, it can not be protected by security mechanisms such as Secure Shell(SSH) or Secure Sockets Layer(SSL). Thus, in this paper, we classify the ARP attack into downstream ARP spoofing attack and upstream ARP redirection attack, and propose a new security mechanism using DHCP information for acquisition of IP address. We propose a "DHCP snoop mechanism" or "DHCP sniffing/inspection mechanism" for ARP spoofing attack, and a "static binding mechanism" for ARP redirection attack. The proposed security mechanisms for ARP attacks can be widely used to reinforce the security of the next generation internet access networks including BcN.

Recent advancement of USN technology has lent itself to the evolving communication technology for implantable devices in the field of medical service. The wireless transmission section for communication between implantable medical devices and patients is a cause of concern over invasion of privacy, resulting from external attackers' hacking and thus leakage of private medical information. In addition, any attempt to manipulate patients' medical information could end up in serious medical issues. The present study proposes an authentication protocol safe against intruders' attacks when RFID/USN technology is applied to implantable medical devices. Being safe against spoofing, information exposure and eavesdropping attacks, the proposed protocol is based on hash-function operation and adopts session keys and random numbers to prevent re-encryption. This paper verifies the security of the proposed protocol using the formal verification tool, Casper/FDR.

This paper describes the implementation of H.235 protocol for authentication and media stream encryption of multimedia conference systems. H.235 protocol is recommended by ITU-T for H.323 multimedia conference security protocol to prevent from being eavesdropped and modified by an illegal attacker. The implementation in this paper has used password-based with symmetric encryption authentication. Media streams are encrypted using the Diffie-Hellman key exchange algorithm and symmetric encryption algorithms such as RC2, DES and Triple-DES. Also, 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard and 128-bit Korean standard SEED algorithms are implemented for the future extension. The implemented authentication and media stream encryption has shown that it is possible to identify terminal users without exposing personal information on networks and to preserve security of multimedia conference. Also, encryption delay time and used memory are not increased even though supporting media stream encryption/decryption, thus the performance of multimedia conference system has not deteriorated.

We are sure that RFID system should be a widely used automatic identification system because of its various advantages and applications. However, many people know that invasions of privacy in RFID system is still critical problem that makes it difficult to be used. Many works for solving this problem have focused on light-weight cryptographic functioning in the RFID tag. An agent scheme is another approach that an agent device controls communications between the tag and the reader for protecting privacy. Generally an agent device has strong security modules and enough capability to process high-level cryptographic protocols and can guarantees consumer privacy. In this paper, we present an enhanced mobile agent for RFID privacy protection. In enhanced MARP, we modified some phases of the original MARP to reduce the probability of successful eavesdropping and to reduce the number of tag's protocol participation. And back-end server can authenticate mobile agents more easily using public key cryptography in this scheme. It guarantees not only privacy protection but also preventing forgery.

This study examined the institutional improvement directions of industrial security programs, particularly focusing upon policies and practices in the U.S., to enhance the effectiveness of industrial security programs in Korea. This study also aimed to investigate the significance of institutional and/or policy implementations in preventing economic espionage attempt. Data leakage and/or loss of trade secrets in corporations has been a scary proposition and a serious headache to both the CEOs and the CSOs(Chief Security Officers). Security professionals or practitioners have always had to deal with data leakage issues that arise from e-mail, instant messaging(IM), and other Internet communication channels. In addition, with the proliferation of wireless and mobile technology, it's now much easier than ever for loss by data breaches to occur, whether accidentally or maliciously or even by an economic espionage attempt. The researcher in this study used both a case study and a comparative research to analyze the different strategies and approaches between the U.S. and Korea in regard of implementing policies to mitigate damages by economic espionage attempts and prevent them from occurring. The researcher first examined the current policies and practices in the U.S. in terms of federal government's and agencies' approach and strategies on industrial security programs and their partnerships with private-commercial-sectors. The purpose of this paper is to explain and suggest selected findings, and a discussion of actions to be taken on implementing a proactive and tactical approach to enhance the effectiveness of industrial security programs to fight against information loss or data leaks. This study used case reviews, literatures, newspapers, articles, and Internet resources relating to the subject of this study for triangulation of data. The findings during this research are as follows. This research suggests that both the private and the governmental sector should closely cooperate in the filed of industrial security to strengthen its traditional prevention strategies and reduce opportunities of economic espionage as well. This study finally recognizes both the very importance of institutional development led by the Government in preventing economic espionage attempts and its effectiveness when properly united with effective industrial security programs.
