The number of subscribers in 4th generation mobile system has been increased rapidly. Along with that, preserving subscribers' privacy has become a hot issue. To prevent users' location from being revealed publicly is important more than ever. In this paper, we first show that the privacy-related problem exists in user authentication procedure in 4th generation mobile system, especially LTE. Then, we suggest an attack model which allows an adversary to trace a user, i.e. he has an ability to determine whether the user is in his observation area. Such collecting subscribers' location by an unauthorized third party may yield severe privacy problem. To keep users' privacy intact, we propose a modified authentication protocol in LTE. Our scheme has low computational overhead and strong secrecy so that both the security and efficiency are achieved. Finally, we prove that our scheme is secure by using the automatic verification tool ProVerif.

Biometric information such as face and fingerprint information is highlighted in many security areas, including authentication, due to its uniqueness and convenience factors. However, if exploited maliciously, it can cause more serious damage than traditional security measures, like passwords. This paper reviews the watermarking method that is able to verify the integrity of this biometric information. The watermark to be inserted is the date of the biometric information acquisition. It is combined with 16-bit Cyclic Redundancy Checks prior to insertion. In particular, face and fingerprint images are saved in a specific compressed format. The proposed watermarking algorithm will be designed in such a way as to remain resilient against compression. The watermark inserted at the acquisition stage will be extracted at each storage and deployment stage, so that the integrity of the biometric information can be verified.

GSM platform is a hugely successful wireless technology and an unprecedented story of global achievement. In less than ten years since the first GSM network was commercially launched, it became the world's leading and fastest growing mobile standard, using over 1 billion GSM subscribers across more than 200 countries of the world. GSM platform evolved into 3th generation mobile communication which includes not only voice call services but also the international roaming and various kinds of the multimedia services. GSM is an essential element techniques a safe data transmission and a personal private protection while support services. However, a crypto algorithm and a secure protocol for a safe data communication using GSM are indicating various kinds of problems. In this paper, we propose a more safer and more efficient authentication protocol in 3th generation network through analysis of GSM security mechanism of 2th/2.5th generation. This security protocol offers enforced security efficiency by using user verification between SIM/ME and reduction of authentication and key agreement step between SIM/ME/AuC.

This paper proposes an ETWAD(Encapsulation and Tunneling Wormhole Attack Detection) design based on positional information and hop count on Ad-Hoc Network. The ETWAD technique is designed for generating GAK(Group Authentication Key) to ascertain the node ID and group key within Ad-hoc Network and authenticating a member of Ad-hoc Network by appending it to RREQ and RREP. In addition, A GeoWAD algorithm detecting Encapsulation and Tunneling Wormhole Attack by using a hop count about the number of Hops within RREP message and a critical value about the distance between a source node S and a destination node D is also presented in ETWAD technique. Therefore, as this paper is estimated as the average probability of Wormhole Attack detection 91%and average FPR 4.4%, it improves the reliability and probability of Wormhole Attack Detection.

Quantity of encrypted data that transmitted through the network are increasing by development of encipherment technology. We have many problems; it is caused by technical development and service increase of user requests. It is necessary that create a many encryption key in one web application system. As a result, service quality comes to be low because of increased network traffic and system overload. There must be a system. That should be improved in secure service quality to process data. This paper describes a new approach for design and implementation of distributed encryption key processing for web application system. In this paper, it is based on distributed encipherment key, for the purpose of confidentially, integrity and authentication. It can prevent system degradation from server's data bottleneck and can improve service quality. For distributed encipherment system, we use java object activation technology. It can service while some distributed server are fail.

As th Internet grew rapidly, the Electronic Commerce that is based on Internet increased. The Electronic Commerce is unsubstantial in the mutual authentication between the parties and a commerce As a solution to this issue, a Web server uses a Client Message technology. The purpose of Client Message is to validate the user and the electronic commercial transaction. Further, it increases efficiency and offers several ability at various purposes. However, the Client Message is transferred and stored as an unencrypted text file, the information can be exposed easily to the network threats, end system threats, and Client Message harvesting threats. In this paper designed by used crypto algorithm a Secure Message as a solution to the issue have proposed above. Further, designed a security service per Network transmitting message to transfer client's user input information to a Web server safety.

Face recognition is a big challenge in surveillance system since different rotation angles of the face make the difficulty to recognize the face of the same person. This paper proposes a novel method to recognize face with different head poses by using 3D information of the face. Firstly, head pose estimation (estimation of different head pose angles) is accomplished by the POSIT algorithm. Then, 3D face image data is constructed by using head pose estimation. After that, 2D image and the constructed 3D face matching is performed. Face verification is accomplished by using commercial face recognition SDK. Performance evaluation of the proposed method indicates that the error range of head pose estimation is below 10 degree and the matching rate is about 95%.

MPTCP(Multipath Transmission Control Protocol) is able to compose many TCP paths when two hosts connect and the data is able to be transported through these paths simultaneously. When a new path is added, the authentication between both hosts is necessary to check the validity of host. So, MPTCP exchanges a key when initiating an connection and makes a token by using this key for authentication. However the original MPTCP is vulnerable to MITM(Man In The Middle) attacks because the key is transported in clear text. Therefore, we applied a ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman) key exchange algorithm to original MPTCP and replaced the original key to the ECDH public key. And, by generating the secret key after the public key exchanges, only two hosts is able to make the token using the secret key to add new subflow. Also, we designed and implemented a method supporting encryption and decryption of data using a shared secret key to apply confidentiality to original MPTCP.
