Location-based services (LBS) are used in various applications such as emergency support, navigation, location, traffic routes, information gathering, and entertainment due to the rapid growth of information communication technologies and mobile phones. In general, locations are represented by coordinates and are related to terrain. These are of great interest in mobile-based data transmission. This paper proposes a method to exchange the contact of the other party by detecting the movement of the mobile phone of the individual user based on the location-based service. The proposed method extracts motion using the acceleration sensor of the mobile phone and transmits the location and time information to the server when the motion continues for a predetermined time. Attempts to establish a connection between users who are experiencing motion in mobile phones in the short distance have been made from the server. Once the connection between the users is made, the encrypted contact is received from the server. Experimental results show that the proposed method can exchange data by minimizing the processing in the handset compared with the existing method.

With the convenience of real-time conversation, multimedia file and contact sharing services, most people use instant messenger, and its usage time is increasing. Because the messengers contain a lot of user behavior information data, in the digital forensic investigation, they can be very useful evidence to identify user behavior. However, some of useful data can be difficult to acquire or recognize because they are encrypted or deleted. Thus, in order to use the messenger data as evidence, the study of message decryption process and message recovery is essential. In this paper, we analyze the database encryption process of the instant messenger, MalangMalang Talkafe, and propose the method to decrypt it. In addition, we propose the methods to identify the deleted messages and recover from the volatile memory area.

CCSDS Standard is widely used in international space telecommunication area. In this standard, Encryption is realized using a unique hierarchical encryption protocol and satisfied security requirements of communication channels. For synchronization, encryption sync is attached in the beginning of encrypted data. But exceptional case(timing jittering, abnormal system shutdown, etc.) is occurred, receiving equipment cannot decrypt received data. In this paper, we propose a SES Alarmed link encryption synchronization method for sending warning signal to the transmitter when some problems have been occurred during the transmission and we also suggest optimum conditions for SES Alarm signal through performance analysis.

Messengers such as KakaoTalk, LINE, and Facebook Messenger are universal means of communication used by anyone. As the convenience functions provided to users and their usage time increase, so does the user behavior information remaining in the artifacts, which is being used as important evidence from the perspective of digital forensic investigation. However, for security reasons, most of the data is currently stored encrypted. In addition, cover-up behaviors such as intentional manipulation, concealment, and deletion are increasing, causing the problem of delaying digital forensic analysis time. In this paper, we conducted a study on the data decryption and artifacts analysis in a Windows environment for KakaoTalk, the messenger with the largest number of users in Korea. An efficient way of obtaining a decryption key and a method of identifying and decrypting messages attempted to be deleted are presented, and thumbnail artifacts are analyzed.

Design-For-Security (DFS) methodology is to protect integrated circuits from physical attacks, and that can be implemented by adding a security circuit to detect abnormal external access. Among the abnormal accesses called invasive attack, microprobing and FIB circuit editing are classified as the most powerful methods because they have direct access. Microprobing deliberately inject defects into the wire of circuit through probes, or reads and changes data. FIB circuit editing is methods of reconnecting or destroying circuits to neutralize security circuits or to access data. Previous DFS methodology have responded to the attacks by detecting arrival time asymmetry between the two signals or by comparing input/output data based on encrypted communication. This study conducted to reduce hardware overhead, and the proposed circuit detects the reflected signal asymmetry generated through probe or FIB circuit editing and detects the attacks through comparison. Since the proposed security circuit reduces the size and test cycle of the circuit compared to previous studies, the cost used for security can be reduced.

The purpose of this study is to study how to apply block-chain technology to prevent data forgery and alteration in the defense sector of AI(Artificial intelligence). AI is a technology for predicting big data by clustering or classifying it by applying various machine learning methodologies, and military powers including the U.S. have reached the completion stage of technology. If data-based AI's data forgery and modulation occurs, the processing process of the data, even if it is perfect, could be the biggest enemy risk factor, and the falsification and modification of the data can be too easy in the form of hacking. Unexpected attacks could occur if data used by weaponized AI is hacked and manipulated by North Korea. Therefore, a technology that prevents data from being falsified and altered is essential for the use of AI. It is expected that data forgery prevention will solve the problem by applying block-chain, a technology that does not damage data, unless more than half of the connected computers agree, even if a single computer is hacked by a distributed storage of encrypted data as a function of seawater.

In this paper, we propose an NFT(Non-Fungible Token)-based access control method for safely sharing data between users in blockchain environment. Since all data stored in the blockchain can be accessed by anyone due to the nature of the technology, it is necessary to control access except for authorized users when sharing sensitive data. For that, we generate each data as NFT and controls access to the data through the smart contract. In addition, in order to overcome the limitations of single ownership of the existing NFT, we separated the NFT into ownership and use rights, so that data can be safely shared between users. Ownership is represented as an original NFT, use rights is represented as a copied NFT, and all data generated as NFT is encrypted and uploaded, so data can be shared only through the smart contract with access control. To verify this approach, we set up a hypothetical scenario called Building Information Modeling (BIM) data trade, and deployed a smart contract that satisfies 32 function call scenarios that require access control. Also, we evaluated the stability in consideration of the possibility of decryption through brute-force attack. Through our approach, we confirmed that the data can be safely shared between users in blockchain environment.

Generally, compression and encryption procedures are performed independently in lossless image compression and encryption. When compression is followed by encryption, the compressed-stream should have the property of randomness because its entropy is decreased during the compression. However, when full data is compressed using image compression methods and then encrypted by encryption algorithms, real-time processing is unrealistic due to the time delay involved. In this paper, we propose to combine compression and encryption to reduce the overall processing time. It is method decomposing gray-scale image by means of quadtree compression algorithms and encrypting the structural part. Moreover, the lossless compression ratio can be increased using a transform that provides an decorrelated image and homogeneous region, and the encryption security can be improved using a reconstruction of the unencrypted quadtree data at each level. We confirmed the increased compression ratio, improved encryption security, and real-time processing by using computer simulations.

In this paper, a new stream cipher algorithm based on the chaos theory is proposed and is applied to a Web security system. The Web security system is composed of three parts： certificate authority (CA), Web client, and Web server. The Web client and server system include a secure proxy client (SPC) and a secure management server (SMS), respectively, for data encryption and decryption between them. The certificate is implemented based on X.509 and the RSA public key algorithm is utilized for key creation and distribution to certify both the client and server. Once a connection is established between the client and server, outgoing and incoming data are encrypted and decrypted, respectively, using one of the three cipher algorithms： chaos, SEED, and DES. The proposed chaos algorithm outperforms the other two conventional algorithms in processing time and complexity. Thus, the developed Web security system can be widely used in electronic commerce (EC) and Internet banking.

Telemetry system is a communication system that measures and transmits various signals in the aircraft to the ground for collecting and monitoring flight data during the development of unmanned air vehicle and satellite launch vehicles. With the recent development of wireless communication technology, it is becoming important to apply encryption of telemetry system to prepare with security threats that may occur during flight data transmission. In this paper, we suggested and implemented the application method of ARIA-256, Korean standard encryption algorithm, to apply encryption to telemetry system. In consideration of the block error propagation and the telemetry frame characteristics, frame is encrypted using the CTR mode and can apply the Reed-solomon codes recommended by CCSDS. ARIA algorithm and cipher frame are implemented in FPGA, and simulation and hardware verification system confirmed continuous frames encryption.
