Now, It is vulnerabilities and problems of adaption in user identification and authentication on the Web environments; the BAA(Basic Access Authentication) of HTTP1.0 is that use. ID and password is passed with clear-text between client and server, For this enhancement, the DAA(Digest Access Authentication) of HTTP1.1 is that use. password is digested by MAC(Message Authentication Code) mechanism. but, this mechanism is not adapted by venders of Web browsers. This paper propose the lava based user identification and authentication model to resolve the above problems. Proposed systems are applied to the Web environment, since it has independence to web server and client.

The purpose of this study is to support flexible authentication functions in various services using various types of user information. Rather than requiring the same level of authentication for all services, the goal is to identify the level of authentication at the time of user authentication and to increase convenience and efficiency by dynamically granting authority. In this paper, we propose POSCAL (Protocol of Service Control by Authentication Level) protocol which can control service access based on various local authentication information. To verify the function of the authentication framework, we developed the electronic wallet service based on the POSCAL authentication framework and evaluated the implementation function based on the use case scenario. The proposed protocol satisfies user and message authentication, confidentiality of authentication information, integrity of authentication history, non - repudiation of authorization, and access control by service according to security level.

There are several possible places which are accessible in many buildings and facilities, various types of systems have been utilized such as access control or surveillance depending on the purpose. Especially if security is important, it must go through the various authentication procedures when people can access. Until now many access control systems have been proposed and developed, they are applied and utilized to companies which security is needed. However, as time passes the problems with existing access control systems occur or the vulnerabilities related to access control are reported, as technology advances. The solution to this, we propose authentication technology related to access control using LED-QR tag.

The existing handover authentication schemes have authentication delay and overhead of the authentication server since they have been separately studied handover authentication at the link layer and the network layer. This paper proposes a handover authentication scheme initiated by Mobile Node on FMIPv6 based mobile access networks. The main idea of the paper is to generate a session key at the mobile node side, and transfer it to the next Access Router through the authentication server. Also, the scheme has a hierarchical key management at access router. There are two advantages of the scheme. First, the generated session key can be utilized for protecting the binding update messages and also for access authentication. Second, hierarchical key management at the access router reduced the handover delay time. The security aspects on the against PFS, PBS, and DoS attack of proposed scheme are discussed.

With the development of IT technology recently, medical information systems are being constructed in an integrated u-health environment through cloud services, IoT technologies, and mobile applications. These kinds of medical information systems should provide the medical staff with authorities to access patients' medical information for emergency status treatments or therapeutic purposes. Therefore, in the medical information systems, the reliable and prompt authentication processes are necessary to access the biometric information and the medical information of the patients in charge of the medical staff. However, medical information systems are accessing with simple and static user authentication mechanism using only medical ID / PWD in the present system environment. For this reason, in this paper, we suggest a dynamic situation authentication mechanism that provides transparency of medical information access including various authentication factors considering patient's emergency status condition and dynamic situation authentication system supporting it. Our dynamic Situation Authentication is a combination of user authentication and mobile device authentication, which includes various authentication factor attributes such as emergency status, role of medical staff, their working hours, and their working positions and so forth. We designed and implemented a dynamic situation authentication system including emergency status decision, dynamic situation authentication, and authentication support DB construction. Finally, in order to verify the serviceability of the suggested dynamic situation authentication system, the medical staffs download the mobile application from the medical information server to the medical staff's own mobile device together with the dynamic situation authentication process and the permission to access medical information to the patient and showed access to medical information.

The interface between servers and clients and system management in the cloud computing environment is different from the existing computing environment. The technology for information protection. Management and user authentication has become an important issue. For providing a more convenient service to users, SSO technology is applied to this cloud computing service. In the SSO service environment, system access using a single key facilitates access to several servers at the same time. This SSO authentication service technology is vulnerable to security of several systems, once the key is exposed. In this paper, we propose a technology to solve problems, which might be caused by single key authentication in SSO-based cloud computing access. This is a distributed agent authentication technology using a multiple SSO agent to reinforce user authentication using a single key in the SSO service environment. For user authentication reinforcement, phased access is applied and trackable log information is used when there is a security problem in system to provide a safe cloud computing service.

This paper implements Multiple User Authentication System to which the system authenticating with password only has been upgraded. The 4-staged authentication including user ID, password, smart card and access control information, etc. is used at the suggested Multiple User Authentication System. The user authentication system that this paper suggests has been developed based on SecuROS/FreeBSD with the function of access control added to FreeBSD kernel. It provides both the function to limit accost range to the system to each user and the function to check that when inputting important information the demand is the one if the system ; thus, the reliability becomes increased. In the SecuROS/FreeBSD system, MAC and RBAC are being used. So, in the case of users accessing to the system, the Information about the policies of MAC and RBAC to which users would access is used in the authentication. At the time, the access to system if permitted only when the access control information that users demanded satisfies all the access control rules which have been defined In the system.

This article proposed the authentication protocol for peer-to-peer resource sharing community. The proposed protocol does not require a priori information for generating and exchanging authentication key. Also this protocol can provide the delicate access control by allowing the user(authenticator) to assign the trust level to the authentication supplicant, which can be used to decide if the resource providing node will accept the resource sharing request from a resource requesting node. Trust Relationship Chaining provides the environment where trust levels (included in the trust table) of nodes in the resource sharing community are propagated among nodes when trust tables are exchanged between two nodes engaged in mutual authentication process and authentication refresh so that any two nodes which are not directly mutual-authenticated can assign the trust level each other for the access control for resource sharing. In the proposed protocol a node can implements the authentication refresh continuously to verify the effectiveness of authentication after mutual authentication so that the authentication of new node or authentication revocation(effectiveness cancellation) of the departed node can be propagated to the all the nodes in RSC and eventually safe resource sharing community is configured.

Today, both sides of modern culture are decisively invaded by digitalization. Authentication is considered to be one of the main components in keeping this process secure. Cyber criminals are working hard in penetrating through the existing network channels to encounter malicious attacks. When it comes to enterprises, the company's information is a major asset. Question here arises is how to protect the vital information. This takes into account various aspects of a society often termed as hyper connected society including online communication, purchases, regulation of access rights and many more. In this research paper, we will discuss about the concepts of MFA and KBA, i.e., Multi-Factor Authentication and Knowledge Based Authentication. The purpose of MFA and KBA its utilization for human.to.everything..interactions, offering easy to be used and secured validation mechanism while having access to the service. In the research, we will also explore the existing yet evolving factor providers (sensors) used for authenticating a user. This is an important tool to protect data from malicious insiders and outsiders. Access Management main goal is to provide authorized users the right to use a service also preventing access to illegal users. Multiple techniques can be implemented to ensure access management. In this paper, we will discuss various techniques to ensure access management suitable for enterprises, primarily focusing/restricting our discussion to multifactor authentication. We will also highlight the role of knowledge-based authentication in multi factor authentication and how it can make enterprises data more secure from Cyber Attack. Lastly, we will also discuss about the future of MFA and KBA.

Recently, security incidents occur continuously, resulting in the leakages of a large amount of the company's confidential and private information. For these reasons, the security technologies such as the authentication and the access control in order to prevent the information leakage are attracting attention. In particular, location-based authentication that utilizes the user's current location information which is used an authentication factor. And it provides more powerful authentication by controlling the users who attempt to access and blocks internal information leakage path. However, location information must be handled safely since it is the personal information. The location based authentication scheme proposed in this paper enhances the stability of the process location information compared with existing relevant location-based authentication protocol. Also it strengthens the end-user authentication by using one-time password. In addition, the proposed scheme provides authentication to prevent information leakage and employs the concept of the user's physical access control. Resultingly, the proposed scheme can provide higher security than the previous studies, while guarantee to low communication cost.
