General RFID system has assumed that the communication channel between reader and back-end database is secure channel. However, the reader can be communicated with the database through insecure channel like the communication channel between the reader and the tag according to application environment. In this paper, we propose a new secure RFID mutual authentication protocol based on open network channel which assumed that all communication channels between the database, the reader and the tag are insecure communication channels. The proposed protocol uses a secure one-way hash function to provide authentication and integrity against all communication messages which exchanged on the open channels. In addition, we designed that the proposed protocol can provide forward secrecy by performing the database and the tag update their old secret key with a new secret key after finished mutual authentication.

Many RFID authentication protocols have been proposed to build a secure ubiquitous environment. However, existing protocols do not respond recent attacks appropriately and they perform many hash operations to authenticate a large number of tags. In this paper, we propose a hash function-based secure authentication protocol for improving efficiency in RFID system. The proposed protocol is safe to passive attacks and active attacks, and requires only 2 hash operations in a tag and 3 hash operations in a database. Accordingly, the proposed protocol is very effective in RFID system environment which is composed to low-cost tags and a database handling many tags.

Hash based RFID protocols proposed by Ha and M.Burmester is a scheme that tag's ID is updated using hash function to provide forward secrecy after session end. But this protocols have a problem both privacy and efficiency. This paper analyze a problem for privacy to apply a privacy game model proposed by Vaudenay. we analyze the cause that these scheme is difficult with tag's cheap implementation and efficient resynchronization. To solve these problems, we proposed a new hash based mutual authentication protocol which apply only two protocol's advantages. this protocols is based of resynchronization algorithm for Ha et al.'s protocol and added a new simple counter to record the numner of continuous desynchronization between tag and reader secret informations. this counter is more simple than cyclic counter proposed by M. Burmester's protocol. Also, we prove that proposal protocol improve a privacy against a privacy attack which is executed for Ha and M. Burmester's protocols.

Recently, many hash-based authentication protocols were presented to guarantee mutual authentication between tag and DB in RFID system. To be suitable for distributed DB environment, one generally uses fixed constant value as a tag ID. However, some existing protocols have security flaws or heavy computational loads in DB in order to search a tag ID. We propose a secure authentication protocol which is suitable for distributed DB environment by using unchangeable tag ID. The storage method of pre-synchronized information in DB at previous session is core idea of our proposal which gives low-cost ID search of DB at next session. In normal synchronization state, our protocol only requires 3 hash operations in tag and DB respectively.

The recently proposed RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) authentication protocol based on a hash function can be divided into two types according to the type of information used for authentication between a reader and a tag: either a value fixed or one updated dynamically in a tag memory. In this paper, we classify the protocols into a static ID-based and a dynamic-ID based protocol and then analyze their respective strengths and weaknesses. Also, we define a new security model including forward/backward traceability, synchronization, forgery attacks. Based on the model, we analyze the previous protocols and propose a new dynamic-ID based RFID mutual authentication protocol. Our protocol provide enhanced RFID user privacy compared to previous protocols and identify a tag efficiently in terms of the operation quantity of a tag and database.

RFID is core technology to lead ubiquitous computing, and attract the notice of the world. It also improves social transparency, creates employment, and invigorates the allied industries. However, The technical characteristic with RFID has some problems with security and privacy. The commercialization of RFID is delayed due to these problems. This paper introduces the technical method to find solutions about an invasion of privacy to be due to introduce RFID system. First, this method applies Hash-Chain proposed by M. Ohkubo and some other researchers. The more tags increase, the more it demands lots of computation time. We divide SPs equally to solve these problems. And then, We'll suggest solutions to shorten the identification time of tag by implementing SPs with multi nodes of Grid environment at the same time. This makes it possible to keep the privacy protection of RFID tag, and process RFID tag in real time at the same time.

Recently, Selim et al proposed public key cryptography based privacy preserving multi-context RFID authentication protocol. However Selim et al's proposed protocol not only doesn't fit into passive tag based RFID system because it uses public key based encryption algorithm to perform authentication between reader and tag, but also is insecure to an impersonation attack because it doesn't provide mutual authentication. In order to eliminate the above described efficiency problem and security vulnerabilities, this paper proposes a new multi-context RFID mutual authentication protocol that can prevent privacy invasion and tag impersonation attack through providing mutual authentication between single passive tag which is located different application space and readers which provide multi-context purposes and can secure against relay attack and denial-of-service attack. As a result, the proposed protocol performs secure mutual authentication based on the collected space and time information from the RFID reader and provides strong security and high computation efficiency because if performs secure one-way hash function and symmetric encryption operations suitable to the environments of passive RFID tags.

The RFID system provides undeniable advantages so that it is used for various application. However recent RFID system is vulnerable to some attacks as eavesdropping, replay attack, message hijacking, and tag tampering, because the messages are transmitted through the wireless channel and the tags are cheap. Above attacks cause the tag and reader impersonation, denial of service by invalidating tag, and the location tracking concerning bearer of tags, A lot of RFID authentication protocol bas been proposed to solve the vulnerability. Since Weis, Sanna, Rivest, and Engel, proposed the bash-based RFID authentication protocol, many researchers have improved hash-based authentication protocol and recent bash-based authentication protocols provide security and desirable privacy. However, it remains open problem to reduce the tag identification time as long as privacy and security are still guaranteed. Here we propose a new protocol in which the tags generate the message depending on the state of previous communitions between tag and reader. In consequence, our protocol allows a server to identify a tag in a reasonable amount of time while ensuring security and privacy, To be specific, we reduced the time for the server to identify a tag when the last session finished abnormally by at least 50% compared with other bash-based schemes that ensure levels of security and privacy similar to ours.

With the increase in the spread of smart devices and the impact of COVID-19, the consumption of media contents through smart devices has significantly increased. Along with this trend, the amount of media contents viewed through OTT platforms is increasing, that makes contents recommendations on these platforms more important. Previous contents-based recommendation researches have mostly utilized metadata that describes the characteristics of the contents, with a shortage of researches that utilize the contents' own descriptive metadata. In this paper, various text data including titles and synopses that describe the contents were used to recommend similar contents. KLUE-RoBERTa-large, a Korean language model with excellent performance, was used to train the model on the text data. A dataset of over 20,000 contents metadata including titles, synopses, composite genres, directors, actors, and hash tags information was used as training data. To enter the various text features into the language model, the features were concatenated using special tokens that indicate each feature. The test set was designed to promote the relative and objective nature of the model's similarity classification ability by using the three contents comparison method and applying multiple inspections to label the test set. Genres classification and hash tag classification prediction tasks were used to fine-tune the embeddings for the contents meta text data. As a result, the hash tag classification model showed an accuracy of over 90% based on the similarity test set, which was more than 9% better than the baseline language model. Through hash tag classification training, it was found that the language model's ability to classify similar contents was improved, which demonstrated the value of using a language model for the contents-based filtering.
