The information security industry is increasing in importance and market size due to the development of the fourth industry such as artificial intelligence, IoT and etc. This paper was analyzed the impact of the increasing information security industry on the domestic economy by using the Input-Output table. It was classified industrial sectors into information security products and information security services industries, and then reclassified the Input-Output table into 35 industries. And it was estimated the production inducement coefficient, the value-added inducement coefficient, employment inducement coefficient, and etc. The production inducement coefficients of the information security product and service industry are each 1.571, 1.802, and the value-added inducement coefficients of them are each 0.632, 0.997, and the employment inducement coefficients of them are each 2.494, 7.361. Only the value-added inducement coefficient of the information security service industry is slightly higher than the total industry, and the remaining inducement coefficients are all lower than the total industry. In addition, the information security product industry has no the forward and backward linkage effect, and the information security service industry has no the backward linkage effect. But it has the forward linkage effect. As a result of analyzing the economic ripple effect of the information security industry, the production inducement amounted to 359.9 trillion won, value-added inducement amounted to 164.8 trillion won, and employment inducement amounted to 803 thousand people.

The signature-then-encryption based on RSA scheme provides forward secrecy, but requires 4 modulo exponentiation operations in total, and the signcryption scheme proposed by Zheng simultaneously fulfills both the functions of digital signature and symmetric key encryption in a logically single step, and with a computational cost significantly smaller than that required by the current standard signature-then-encryption, but it can not provide forward secrecy. In this paper, we propose an enhanced signcryption scheme which can provide forward secrecy with lower computational cost and lower communication overhead comparing with those of the signature-then-encryption based on RSA, and with a similar communication overhead of Zheng's scheme. The proposed scheme can be also easily modified to the direct signature verification scheme by the recipient without using the recipient's private key. Additionally, we suggest a new design protocol with server-supported signatures which solves the CRLs(Certificate Revocation Lists) burden and provides non-repudiation of origin. This protocol with server-supported signatures also can be applied to the original signcryption scheme proposed by Zheng in order to improve security.

In this paper, we investigate the possible security threats to downloadable conditional access system (DCAS) host devices. We then propose a DCAS secure micro (SM) and transport processor (TP) security protocol that counters identified security threats using a secure key establishment and pairing management scheme. The proposed protocol not only resists disclosed SM ID and TP ID threats and indirect connection between TA and TP threats, but also meets some desirable security attributes such as known key secrecy, perfect forward secrecy, key compromised impersonation, unknown key-share, and key control.

Sensor networks have a wide spectrum of military and civil applications, particularly with respect to security and secure keys for encryption and authentication. This thesis presents a new centralized approach which focuses on the group key distribution with revocation capability for Wireless Sensor Networks. We propose a new personal key share distribution. When utilized, this approach proves to be secure against k-number of illegitimate colluding nodes. In contrast to related approaches, our scheme can overcome the security shortcomings while keeping the small overhead requirements per node. It will be shown that our scheme is unconditionally secure and achieves both forward secrecy and backward secrecy. The analysis is demonstrated in terms of communication and storage overheads.

In this paper, we investigate physical layer security for multiple decode-and-forward (DF) relaying underlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs) with fixed transmit power at the secondary network against passive eavesdropping attacks. We propose a simple relay selection scheme to improve wireless transmission security based on the instantaneous channel information of all legitimate users and the statistical information about the eavesdropper channels. The closed-form expressions of the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity and the secrecy outage probability (SOP) are derived over independent and non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading environments. Furthermore, we conduct the asymptotic analysis to evaluate the secrecy diversity order performance and prove that full diversity is achieved by using the proposed relay selection. Finally, numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis and depict that primary interference constrain has a significant impact on the secure performance and a proper transmit power for the second transmitters is preferred to be energy-efficient and improve the secure performance.

LTE/SAE has presented the handover key management to revoke the compromised keys and to isolate corrupted network devices. In this paper, we identify that the handover key management is vulnerable to de-synchronization attacks, which is jeopardizing the forward secrecy of handover key management. Also, an adversary could prevent the UE from creating the secure link with eNodeB, which is delaying the handover procedure. In this paper, we present a counrermeasure to prevent above attacks, and analyze the performance issues of the proposed protocol.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new paradigm that connects physical and virtual objects from various domains such as home automation, industrial processes, human health, and monitoring. IoT sensors receive information from their environment and forward it to their neighboring nodes. However, the large amounts of exchanged data are vulnerable to attacks that reduce the network performance. Most of the previous security methods for IoT have neglected the energy consumption of IoT, thereby affecting the performance and reducing the network lifetime. This paper presents a new multistep routing protocol based on cellular learning automata. The network lifetime is improved by a performance-based adaptive reward and fine parameters. Nodes can vote on the reliability of their neighbors, achieving network reliability and a reasonable level of security. Overall, the proposed method balances the security and reliability with the energy consumption of the network.

Many service systems use Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to protect the service. But there arc problems with the use of PKI. One of the problems is that some services would require a function instantaneously to check public kel certificate, but PKI does not satisfy such request. To solve the problem, Bouch et al. first proposed the concept of mediated RSA (mRSA). Then Gene Tsudik proposed 'weak' forward secure mRSA. In this paper, we analyze the weakness of these schemes and find the source of the vulnerabilitv. And we propose a new mRSA that is strong forward secure.

Considering that the existing Long Term Evolution is not suitable for the fast and frequent handovers of high-speed trains, this paper proposes a relay-assisted handover mechanism to solve the problems of long handover authentication time and vulnerable to security attacks. It can achieve mutual authentication for train-ground wireless communication, and data transmission is consistent with one-time pad at the same time. The security analysis, efficiency analysis and simulation results show that the proposed mechanism not only realizes the forward security and resists many common attacks, but also effectively reduces the computational overhead of train antenna during the secure handover process. When the running speed of a train is lower than 500km/h, the handover delay is generally lower than 50ms and the handover outage probability is less than 1.8%. When the running speed of a train is 350km/h, the throughput is higher than 16.4mbps in the process of handover. Therefore, the secure handover mechanism can improve the handover performance of high-speed trains.

Ephemeral data are easily revealed if state specific information is stored in insecure memory or a random number generator is corrupted. In this letter, we show that Nam et al.'s group key agreement scheme, which is an improvement of Bresson et al.'s scheme, is not secure against session-state reveal attacks. We then propose an improvement to fix the security flaw.
