Power analysis attack on cryptographic hardware device aims to study the power consumption while performing operations using secrets keys. Power analysis is a form of side channel attack which allow an attacker to compute the key encryption from algorithm using Simple Power Analysis (SPA), Differential Power Analysis (DPA) or Correlation Power Analysis (CPA). The theoretical weaknesses in algorithms or leaked informations from physical implementation of a cryptosystem are usually used to break the system. This paper describes how power analysis work and we provide an overview of countermeasures against power analysis attacks.

This paper presents a lightweight true random number generator (TRNG) using beta radiation that is useful for Internet of Things (IoT) security. In general, a random number generator (RNG) is required for all secure communication devices because random numbers are needed to generate encryption keys. Most RNGs are computer algorithms and use physical noise as their seed. However, it is difficult to obtain physical noise in small IoT devices. Since IoT security functions are required in almost all countries, IoT devices must be equipped with security algorithms that can pass the cryptographic module validation programs of each country. In this regard, it is very cumbersome to embed security algorithms, random number generation algorithms, and even physical noise sources in small IoT devices. Therefore, this paper introduces a lightweight TRNG comprising a thin-film beta-radiation source and integrated circuits (ICs). Although the ICs are currently being designed, the IC design was functionally verified at the board level. Our random numbers are output from a verification board and tested according to National Institute of Standards and Technology standards.

In distributed computing, accessible encryption strategy over Auditable data is a hot research field. Be that as it may, most existing system on encoded look and auditable over outsourced cloud information and disregard customized seek goal. Distributed storage space get to manage is imperative for the security of given information, where information security is executed just for the encoded content. It is a smaller amount secure in light of the fact that the Intruder has been endeavored to separate the scrambled records or Information. To determine this issue we have actualize (CBC) figure piece fastening. It is tied in with adding XOR each plaintext piece to the figure content square that was already delivered. We propose a novel heterogeneous structure to evaluate the issue of single-point execution bottleneck and give a more proficient access control plot with a reviewing component. In the interim, in our plan, a CA (Central Authority) is acquainted with create mystery keys for authenticity confirmed clients. Not at all like other multi specialist get to control plots, each of the experts in our plan deals with the entire trait set independently. Keywords: Cloud storage, Access control, Auditing, CBC.

The revelations made possible by Edward Snowden, a contractor of the US intelligence service NSA, are a sobering reminder that the Internet is not an 'anonymous' means of communication. In fact, the Internet has never been conceived with anonymity in mind. If anything, the Internet and networking technologies provide far more detailed and traceable information about where, when, with whom we communicate. The content of the communication can also be made available to third parties who obtain encryption keys or have the means of exploiting vulnerabilities (either by design or by oversight) of encryption software. Irrebuttable evidence has emerged that the US and the UK intelligence services have had an indiscriminate access to the meta-data of communications and, in some cases, the content of the communications in the name of security and protection of the public. The conventional means of judicial scrutiny of such an access turned out to be ineffectual. The most alarming attitude of the public and some politicians is "If you have nothing to hide, you need not be concerned." Where individuals have nothing to hide, intelligence services have no business in the first place to have a peek. If the public espouses the groundless assumption that State organs are benevolent "( they will have a look only to find out whether there are probable grounds to form a reasonable suspicion"), then the achievements of several hundred years of struggle to have the constitutional guarantees against invasion into privacy and liberty will quickly evaporate. This is an opportune moment to review some of the basic points about the protection of privacy and freedom of individuals. First, if one should hold a view that security can override liberty, one is most likely to lose both liberty and security. Civilized societies have developed the rule of law as the least damaging and most practicable arrangement to strike a balance between security and liberty. Whether we wish to give up the rule of law in the name of security requires a thorough scrutiny and an informed decision of the body politic. It is not a decision which can secretly be made in a closed chamber. Second, protection of privacy has always depended on human being's compliance with the rules rather than technical guarantees or robustness of technical means. It is easy to tear apart an envelope and have a look inside. It was, and still is, the normative prohibition (and our compliance) which provided us with protection of privacy. The same applies to electronic communications. With sufficient resources, surreptitiously undermining technical means of protecting privacy (such as encryption) is certainly 'possible'. But that does not mean that it is permissible. Third, although the Internet is clearly not an 'anonymous' means of communication, many users have a 'false sense of anonymity' which make them more vulnerable to prying eyes. More effort should be made to educate the general public about the technical nature of the Internet and encourage them to adopt user behaviour which is mindful of the possibilities of unwanted surveillance. Fourth, the US and the UK intelligence services have demonstrated that an international cooperation is possible and worked well in running the mechanism of massive surveillance and infiltration into data which travels globally. If that is possible, it should equally be possible to put in place a global mechanism of judicial scrutiny over a global attempt at surveillance.

As content providers further offload content-centric services to the cloud, data retrieval over the cloud typically results in many redundant items because there is a prevalent near-duplication of content on the Internet. Simply fetching all data from the cloud severely degrades efficiency in terms of resource utilization and bandwidth, and data can be encrypted by multiple content providers under different keys to preserve privacy. Thus, locating near-duplicate data in a privacy-preserving way is highly dependent on the ability to deduplicate redundant search results and returns best matches without decrypting data. To this end, we propose an efficient near-duplicate detection scheme for encrypted data in the cloud. Our scheme has the following benefits. First, a single query is enough to locate near-duplicate data even if they are encrypted under different keys of multiple content providers. Second, storage, computation and communication costs are alleviated compared to existing schemes, while achieving the same level of search accuracy. Third, scalability is significantly improved as a result of a novel and efficient two-round detection to locate near-duplicate candidates over large quantities of data in the cloud. An experimental analysis with real-world data demonstrates the applicability of the proposed scheme to a practical cloud system. Last, the proposed scheme is an average of 70.6% faster than an existing scheme.

Recently 5G technology is one of the technologies that has been receiving much positive responses from users as it is integrated with virtual technology. However, 5G's security issues have not been fully resolved and more security is soon required. In this paper, an approach technique is proposed as a probability-based hierarchy to provide personal privacy for 5G-based IoT users more safely. The proposed technique is aimed at not exposing the privacy of IoT users to third parties by using two random keys created personally by IoT users. In order to satisfy both safety and efficiency, the proposed technology divides the privacy of IoT users into two layers. In the first stage, IoT users will control access to intermediate media using anonymous keys generated by IoT users, and in the second stage, information of IoT users registered with servers will be darkened and replicated. The proposed technique has improved the accuracy of the privacy protection of IoT users as they assign weights to layered information after layering users' privacy information on a probabilistic basis.

In these days, information communication systems are based on both open distributed computing technologies and object-oriented techniques like inheritance, encapsulation and object reuse to support various system configuration and application. As information systems are interconnected through unsecure networks, the need for the secure information exchange is more critical than before. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a transparent CORBA-basce Security infrastructure with authentication, security context association, access control and security information management to support a secure applications in distributed object environment. SESAME Ver. 4 was adopted as an external security service to manage user privilege attributes and to distribute keys for data encryption, decryption and integrity. Using filter and transformer with an interface to Object Request Broker, it provides a transparent security service to applications. The filter objects are special classes that allow additional parameters to be inserted into messages before they are sent and removed just after they are received. The transformer objects are special classes that allow direct access to the byte stream of every messages for encryption and decryption before it is sent and just after it is received. This study is to implement the access control interceptor(ACI) and the secure invocation interceptor(SII) of secure ORB defined in CORBA using filter and transformer.

Cryptographic algorithms are used to prevent the illegal manipulation of data. They are divided into public-key cryptosystems and symmetric-key cryptosystems. Public-key cryptosystems require considerable time for encryption and decryption compared to symmetric-key cryptosystem. On the other hand, key management, and delivery are easier for public-key cryptosystems than symmetric-key cryptosystems because different keys are used for encryption and decryption. Furthermore, hash functions are being used very effectively to verify the integrity of the digital content, as they always generate output with a fixed size using the data of various sizes as input. This paper proposes a method using RSA public-key cryptography and a hash function to determine if a digital image is deformed or not and to detect the manipulated location. In the proposed method, the entire image is divided into several blocks, 64×64 in size. The watermark is then allocated to each block to verify the deformation of the data. When deformation occurs, the manipulated pixel will be divided into smaller 4×4 sub-blocks, and each block will have a watermark to detect the location. The safety of the proposed method depends on the security of the cryptographic algorithm and the hash function.

Due to the recent developments of various smart devices, U-healthcare services using these appliances has increased. However, the security of U-healthcare services is a very important issue since healthcare services contain highly sensitive and private personal health information. In order to handle the security issues, the functionality of encrypting medical information must be provided, and an encryption key exchange method is necessary. In this paper, we propose a key exchange protocol by utilizing smart devices for secure U-healthcare services. The proposed protocol has been designed based on the elliptic curve based public key cryptography, providing high level security for smart devices by using short keys. Moreover, in order to strengthen user authentication and security, a smart watch is used as a complementary device, whenever the key exchange protocol is performed.

The symmetric key encryption algorithms, such as the AES or the ARIA, generate round keys by the key expansion mechanism. While the algorithm is executed, key expansion mechanism emits information about the secret key by the power consumption. The vulnerability exists that can reduce significantly the candidate of the secret key by the simple power analysis attack using a small number of the power traces. Therefore, we'll have to study about the attack and the countermeasure to prevent information leakage. While a simple power analysis attack on the AES key expansion has been studied since 2002, ARIA is insufficient. This paper presents a simple power analysis attack on 8-bit implementations of the ARIA-128 key expansion. The presented attack efficiently utilizes this information leakage to substantially reduce the key space that needs to be considered in a brute-force search for the secret key. We show that ARIA is vulnerable to a SPA attack based on hamming weight leakage.
