Today, home networking security shows the complicated and various characteristics of requirements for consideration because of the variety of information appliances and share of resources among them. Therefore, security framework to satisfy with security functions is arranged ,regardless of the variety of communication medium and protocols. Thus, we construct security framework for mobile host(or user) to securely control devices in home-network through the variety of suggested mechanism, with security mechanism to be available for future home networking model, and verified the performance of our model.

This study developed a digital security device which power is on/off by the RFID card. This device is based on the wireless data transmit/receive circuits, built in RS-232C chip and applied to computer and other digital devices. We can check whether this device is operated or not by connecting the LED. In this system, 13.56MHz frequency circuit supplies power with ID card, and DC inputs check the proximity operating distance of the card field for verifying the existence of a card. The security level of this system is much stronger than that of a compared system[13]. Anyone cannot use the system without RFID card. All illegal access is prevented except for authorized path.

Under ubiquitous environment, applications can gather and utilize various sensing information. There are many issues such as energy management, protocol standardization, independency on sensor fields, and security to be resolved for the complete ubiquitous computing. Especially, the independent information access in the sensor field is one of the most important issues to maximize the usability of sensors in various sensor fields. However, existing frameworks are not suitable for the ubiquitous computing environment because of data heterogeneity between data elements in sensor fields. Existing applications are dependent to sensor fields and sensors in the existing ubiquitous computing on environment is dependent to the application in the sensor field. In other word, an application can utilize just information from a specific sensor field. To overcome this restriction, many issues from a hardware or software view must be resolved. In this paper, we provide the design and implementation of the Metadata Registry-based framework (UbiMDR) of the Ubiquitous environment. This framework can provides the semantic interoperability among ubiquitous applications or various sensor fields. In addition, we describe comparison evaluation between conventional Ubiquitous computing framework and UbiMDR framework with data accuracy of interoperability.

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.

Recently, Ubiquitous innovation is being promoted so that they can support the uHealthcare provide management to human's health. It is thus necessary to conduct such research on the medical care environment where there is a high demand for utilization of status information. In the current situation, there is a lack of research on measures of security processing and monitoring patient status information produced from rapid growth of infra within Medical environment. This study suggests a solution of using RFID to gather patient information such as inpatient information, location of treatment room, progress of patient, humidity, temperature, and diagnostic status, after which the information are protect and processed using security level method.

The ubiquitous network revolution is beginning with the onset of digital convergence, whereby computers, horne appliances, and communications and broadcast media are being unified into digital media with the founding of the information super high speed. This technical advancement is creating a new culture and a new space and accelerating society's transition to the new and unique social paradigm of a 'ubiquitous society'. In particular, studies on ubiquitous communications are well underway. Lately, the focus has been on the Bluetooth technology due to its applicability in various environments. Applying Bluetooth connectivity to new environments such as ubiquitous or sensor networks requires finding new ways of using it. Thus, the scalable Bluetooth piconet scheme with independent slave device is proposed. It follows from work by Sea et al. But extended scatternet is not considered is Kiisc05 paper. Therefore, we propose secure bridge connection scheme for scalable Bluetooth scatternet.

Low Rate WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) designed for low power and low cost wireless communication is an important technology to realize ubiquitous environment. IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee Alliance recommend the SKKE (Symmetric-Key Key Establishment) protocol for key establishment and management. The SKKE algorithm has security weakness such as the absence of authentication process or electric signature in key generation and exchange when devices join the role of coordinators. In this paper, we propose new key establishment and security algorithm based on public key encryption to solve low rate WPAN security problems. Also, to improve PLC AMR system's weaknesses in communication reliability and security, we propose a new AMR system model based on IEEE 802.15.4 and we apply our security algorithm to AMR profile for security enhancement.

웹 서비스는 오늘날의 인터넷 환경에서 분산되어있고, 이질적인 시스템들 간에 상호운용을 제공하는 새로운 소프트웨어 시스템의 형태이다. 이러한 환경에 있어서 보안은 가장 중요한 이슈 중 하나이다. 공격자는 아무런 인증 없이 사용자의 비밀정보를 노출시킬 수도 있다. 더구나 유비쿼터스 환경에서 사용자들은 웹 서비스를 이용하기 위해 반드시 그들 대신 서비스를 처리할 에이전트들에게 그들의 권한 모두를 혹은 그 중 일부분을 일시적으로 위임해야만 한다. 이것은 사용자의 비밀정보가 에이전트들을 통해 외부에 노출되는 결과를 초례한다. 본 논문에서는 유비쿼터스 환경에서의 안전한 웹 서비스를 위한 위임모델을 제시한다. 우리는 에이전트를 통한 비밀정보의 노출을 막고 서비스의 기밀성과 단언정보의 무결성을 제공하기 위해 XML암호화와 XML전자서명 방식을 이용한다. 그리고 XACML 기반의 웹 서비스 관리 서버를 통해 웹 서비스 제공자들과의 서비스정책의 상호운용을 수행한다. 우리는 역시 멀티 에이전트들 간의 위임을 통해 웹 서비스 제공자들에게 전달될 위임 단언을 정의하기 위해 SAML을 확장 시킨다.
