IoT which is an abbreviation of Internet of Things refers to the communication network service among various objects such as people-people, objects-objects interconnection. The characteristic of IoT that enables direct connection among each device makes security to be considered as more emphasized factor. Though a security module such as an authentication protocol for resolving various security problems that may occur in the IoT environment has been developed, some weak points in security are still being revealed. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for including a protocol including gateway authentication procedure and mutual authentication between the devices and gateways. Protocols with additional authentication procedures can appropriately respond to attackers' spoofing attacks. In addition, important information in the message used for authentication process is protected by encryption or hash function so that it can respond to wiretapping attacks.

As Internet grows rapidly and next electronic commerce applications increase, the security is getting more important. Information security to provide secure and reliable information transfer is based on cryptography technique. The proposed ISEED(Improved SEED) algorithm based on block cryptography algorithm which belongs to secret-key algorithm. In terms of efficiency, the round key generation algorithm has been proposed to reduces the time required in encryption and decryption. The algorithm has been implemented as follow. 128-bit key is divided into two 64-bit group to rotate each of them 8-bit on the left side and right side, and then basic arithmetic operation and G function have been applied to 4-word outputs. In the process of converting encryption key which is required in decryption and encryption of key generation algorithm into sub key type, the conversion algorithm is analyzed. As a result, the time consumed to encryption and decryption is reduced by minimizing the number of plain text required differential analysis.

The emerging of ubiquitous computing and healthcare technologies provides us a strong platform to build sustainable healthcare applications especially those that require real-time information related to personal healthcare regardless of place. We realize that system stability, reliability and data protection are also important requirements for u-healthcare services. Therefore, in this paper, we designed a u-healthcare system which can be attached to the patient's body to measure vital signals, enhanced with USN secure sensor module. Our proposed u-healthcare system is using wireless sensor modules embedded with NLM-128 algorithm. In addition, PS-LFSR technique is applied to the NLM-128 algorithm to enable faster and more efficient computation. We included some performance statistical results in term of CPU cycles spent on NLM-128 algorithm with and without the PS-LFSR optimization for performance evaluation.

CNG which was released as a substitute of the previous CAPI (Cryptography API) library from Microsoft is constructed with individual modules based on the plug-in architecture, this means CNG is exceedingly helpful in the cost of development as well as the facility of extension. On the opposite side of these advantages, considerations on security issues are quite insufficient. Therefore, a research on security assurance is strongly required in the environment of distributing and utilizing the CNG library, hence, we analyze possible security vulnerabilities on the CNG library. Based on analyzed vulnerabilities, proof-of-concept tools are implemented and vulnerabilities are verified using them. Verified results are that contents of mail, account information of mail server, and authentication information of web-sites such as Amazon, E-bay, Google, and Facebook are exposed in Outlook program and Internet Explorer program using CNG library. We consider that the analyzed result in this paper can improve the security for various applications using CNG library.

IoT, which can be regarded as an enhanced version of M2M communication technology, was proposed to realize intelligent thing to thing communications by utilizing Internet connectivity. Things in IoT are generally heterogeneous and resource constrained. Also such things are connected with each other over LLN(low power and lossy Network). Confidentiality, mutual authentication and message origin authentication are required to make a secure service in IoT. Security protocols used in traditional IP Networks cannot be directly adopted to resource constrained devices in IoT. Under the respect, a IETF standard group proposes to use lightweight version of DTLS protocol for supporting security services in IoT environments. However, the protocol can not cover up all of very constrained devices. To solve the problem, we propose a scheme which tends to support mutual authentication and session key agreement between devices that contain only a single crypto primitive module such as hash function or cipher function because of resource constrained property. The proposed scheme enhances performance by pre-computing a session key and is able to defend various attacks.

As wireless Internet speads widely, circulation of various types of digital contents become active. Therefore, it is necesary to make a mobile-based DRM (Digatal Rights Management) system to protect digital contents from illegal reproduction and to give proper rights to contents users, In this paper, we present a mibile security system, which protects the copyright for digital contents offered throughout the mobile environment. Our security system is focused on presenting mobile-based DRM architecture. Especially, considering mobile device's decrying power, we adopted partial encryption scheme. For this, wecompared and evaluated the performant of each contents encryption scheme (the entire encryption scheme and the partial encription scheme) and proved that a proper DRM system for current wireless devices is the partial encryption system. Our mobile DRM system can be very efficient to protect contents on the wireless Internet environment.

According to developing wireless communications in vehicle, various security threat in the WAVE(Wireless access in vehicular environments) is increased. To protect this, IEEE 1609.2 specify services as for prevent message from attacks such as spoofing, eavesdropping and replay. It is possible to implement a hardware library for defending these attacks. In this paper, we proposed a efficient AES-CCM architecture for the hardware library in the WAVE. We compare our architecture to the previous one in the same FPGA. And our design uses less slices than 27 % of it and less slices than 45 % of it if we share registers that were used by other modules in the library. We also achieves a throughput of 1355 Gbits/s in xc5vlx110t-2ff1136.

The purpose of DRM is to protect the copyrights of content providers and to enable only designated users to access digital contents. From the consumers' point of view, they have a tendency to go against complex and confusing limitations. Moreover, consumers' rights of use of the content obtained legally were frequently harmed by arbitrary limitations. The concept of Authorized Domain (AD) was presented to remove such problems. However, the previous work on authorized domain has two problems. The first is that it requires a rather expensive revocation mechanism for withdraw process. The second is that the modules still can play contents which are previously obtained even though they are currently out of the authorized domain. On the contrary, our scheme presents the content from being played by modules which are out of the domain for better security. Furthermore our scheme does not need to maintain a revocation list and prevent replay attack.

Evaluation of cube roots in characteristic three finite fields is required for Tate (or modified Tate) pairing computation. The Hamming weights (the number of nonzero coefficients) in the polynomial representations of $x^{1/3}$ and $x^{2/3}$ determine the efficiency of cube roots computation, where $F_{3^m}$is represented as $F_3[x]/(f)$ and $f(x)=x^m+ax^k+b{\in}F_3[x]$ (a, $b{\in}F_3$) is an irreducible trinomial. O. Ahmadi et al. determined the Hamming weights of $x^{1/3}$ and $x^{2/3}$ for all irreducible trinomials. In this paper, we present formulas for cube roots in $F_{3^m}$ using the shifted polynomial basis(SPB). Moreover, we provide the suitable shifted polynomial basis bring no further modular reduction process.

Service environments through laptops, smart devices, and various IoT devices are developing very rapidly. Recent security measures in these Internet environments mainly consist of network application level solutions such as firewall(Intrusion Prevention Systems) and IDS (intrusion detection system). In addition, various security data have recently been used on-site, and issues regarding the management and destruction of such security data have been raised. Products such as DRM(Digital Rights Management) and DLP(Data Loss Prevention) are being used to manage these security data. However despite these security measures, data security measures taken out to be used in the field are operated to the extent that the data is encrypted, delivered, and stored in many environments, and measures for encryption key management or data destruction are insufficient. Based on these issues we aim to propose a SecureOS Module, an OS-based security module. With this module users can manage and operate security data through a consistent interface, addressing the problems mentioned above.
