In this paper, we propose a new design scheme of N-Screen emulator based on Cloud and then implement the emulator, in order to solve the critical point of N-Screen emulator based on Cloud. This method, without the emulator in the server, will be able to confirm the features of the emulator with a browser using Web Service. This means that the identical service is possible without regard to personal computer or mobile environment. Also, in order to emulating each different web browser engine of the various devices separately, we revise and manage the WebKit engine to be suitable to the characteristics of each device. In the previous design method, the number of emulators which can be shown in a monitor is restricted to 2 or 3. However, we show that the proposed design method can improve the performance of server to the extent that this method could operate more than 100 emulators per each server.

Openstack is an open source software that enables developers to build IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) cloud platforms. Openstack can virtualize servers, networks and storages, and provide them to users. This paper proposes the structure of Openstack cloud storage system applying Infiniband to solve bottlenecking that may occur between server and storage nodes when the server performs an I/O operation. Furthermore, we implement all flash array based high-performance Cinder storage volumes which can be used at Nova virtual machines by applying distributed RAID-60 structures to three 8-bay SSD storages and show that Infiniband storage networks applied to Openstack is suitable for virtualizing high-performance storage.

IaaS is well known as a very cost effective computing service which enables required infrastructures to be rented on demand without ownership of real hardwares. It is very suitable for price sensitive services due to pay-per-use style. Operators of such services would want to adjust utilization policy quickly by estimating costs for cloud infrastructures as soon as possible. However, swift response is not possible due to that cloud service providers provide a dozen or so hours delayed billing information. Our work proposes a realtime IaaS cost estimation model based on usages monitored by virtual machine instance. We operate PC laboratory service on a public cloud during full semester to validate our suggested model. From that experiment, an averaged disparity between estimation and actual cost is less than 5.2%.

As the utilization of cloud computing service rapidly increases to meet demands for various forms of service recently, the virtualization technology has made a rapid rise, further leading to some issues related to security, such as safety and reliability. As a system to provide environments what multiple virtual operating systems can be loaded, hypervisors may be a target of various attacks, such as control loss and authority seizure, since all the agents fcan be damaged by a malicious access to the virtualization layer. Therefore, this paper was conducted to investigate the access control for agents and suggest a plan to control malicious accesses to the cloud virtualization internal environment. The suggested technique was verified not to have effect on the performance of the system and environment through an analysis of its performance.

The development of cloud services and IoT technology has radically changed the cloud environment, and has evolved into a new concept called fog computing and F2C (fog-to-cloud). However, as heterogeneous cloud/fog layers are integrated, problems of access control and security management for end users and edge devices may occur. In this paper, an F2C-based IoT smart health monitoring system architecture was designed to operate a medical information service that can quickly respond to medical emergencies. In addition, a role-based service access control technology was proposed to enhance the security of user's personal health information and sensor information during service interoperability. Through simulation, it was shown that role-based access control is achieved by sharing role registration and user role token issuance information through blockchain. End users can receive services from the device with the fastest response time, and by performing service access control according to roles, direct access to data can be minimized and security for personal information can be enhanced.

Recently, demand for cloud computing has increased and remote access due to home work and external work has increased. In addition, a new security paradigm is required in the current situation where the need to be vigilant against not only external attacker access but also internal access such as internal employee access to work increases and various attack techniques are sophisticated. As a result, the network security model applying Zero-Trust, which has the core principle of doubting everything and not trusting it, began to attract attention in the security industry. Zero Trust Security monitors all networks, requires authentication in order to be granted access, and increases security by granting minimum access rights to access requesters. In this paper, we explain zero trust and zero trust architecture, and propose a new cloud security system for strengthening access control that overcomes the limitations of existing security systems using zero trust and blockchain and can be used by various companies.

Cloud computing technology is expanding its services to individual consumers through storage and applications. This study aims to compare the predisposing factors that affect the perceived value and the intention to use between users who have used or experienced services and those who have never experienced services from the perspective of benefit and sacrifice based on the value-based acceptance model. The results showed that the sacrifice factor (perceived cost) had a significant effect on perceived value and perceived value had a significant effect on intention to use, but showed a difference in perceived benefit. Perceived usefulness, ubiquity, and network effects had significant impact for experienced users' perceived value, but for inexperienced users, ubiquity did not have significant impact. In addition, usefulness was the most significant factor for experienced users while network effect was the same for inexperienced users. The results of this study suggest that consumers' intention to use personal cloud service is evaluated as a benefit and sacrifice point and a new attempt to re-examine the role of previous experience.

They are rapidly evolving malicious attacks on smart devices, and to timely protect the smart devices from these attacks has become a very important issue. In particular, smishing attack has emerged as one of the most important threats on the smartphone. In this paper, we propose the cloud service that can fundamentally protect the user from the risk of smishing attack. The proposed scheme provides cloud messaging service that can filter text messages including URLs in the user's smart device, view and manage them through a virtual machine provided by a cloud server. The existing techniques for preventing smshing attacks protect only malicious code of a known pattern and there is the possibility of error such as FP(False Positive) or FN(False Negative). However, since the proposed method automatically filters all text messages including URLs, storing, viewing, and managing them in their own storage space on the cloud server, it can completely block the installation of malwares(malicious codes) on the user's smart device through smishing attacks.

Recently, the number of cloud web applications is increasing owing to the accelerated migration of enterprises and public sector information systems to the cloud. Traditional network attacks on cloud web applications are characterized by Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, which consume network resources with a large number of packets. However, HTTP DoS attacks, which consume application resources, are also increasing recently; as such, developing security technologies to prevent them is necessary. In particular, since low-bandwidth HTTP DoS attacks do not consume network resources, they are difficult to identify using traditional security solutions that monitor network metrics. In this paper, we propose a new detection model for detecting HTTP DoS attacks on cloud web applications by collecting the application metrics of web servers and learning them using machine learning. We collected 18 types of application metrics from an Apache web server and used five machine learning and two deep learning models to train the collected data. Further, we confirmed the superiority of the application metrics-based machine learning model by collecting and training 6 additional network metrics and comparing their performance with the proposed models. Among HTTP DoS attacks, we injected the RUDY and HULK attacks, which are low- and high-bandwidth attacks, respectively. As a result of detecting these two attacks using the proposed model, we found out that the F1 scores of the application metrics-based machine learning model were about 0.3 and 0.1 higher than that of the network metrics-based model, respectively.
