The existing electronic transaction protocol uses a cryptography algorithm that is not suitable for mobile environment because of limited memory and process ability. In this paper, we propose an efficient transaction protocol suitable for mobile embedded system. The proposed protocol reduces computation and process time by using ID-based cryptography algorithm and ECC (elliptic curve cryptosystem). It uses vendor authentication only in the first transaction, and from the second transaction, it requires transaction after authentication with session created by applying ECC technique. Therefore, the creation number of authentication for the vendor can be reduced from n to one. And it reduces process time because it provides the same security with 160 bits as with 1024 bits of RSA.

Using carefully assembled sets of IDs based on the cryptographic principle of secret shares, we can create RFID tags that yield virtually no information to casual "hit-and-run" attackers, but only reveal their true ID after continuous and undisturbed reading from up-close something that can hardly go unnoticed by an item's owner. In this paper, we analyses the practical issues of cryptography for RFID privacy with lightweight method.

인터넷의 발달과 사용자 증가로 인해 IETF는 다양한 네트워크와 프로토콜 상에서 안전하고 신뢰성 있는 사용자 인증을 위해 AAA를 제안하였다. 그러나 AAA의 최신 버전인 Diameter 표준의 인증 방식은 상호인증과 부인방지를 제공하지 않는다. 이러한 Diameter의 인증을 보완하기 위해 공개키를 이용한 AAA 인증 방식이 제안되었으나, 통신과 연산의 오버헤드로 인해 이동 노드에 적용이 어렵다. 이러한 단점을 극복한 ID 기반 AAA 인증 방식이 제안 되었으나 공모공격과 위장공격으로부터의 취약점을 가진다. 이 논문에서는 공모공격과 위장공격에 안전하고, 계산적 전력적 능력이 부족한 이동 노드의 연산량을 감소시키는 새로운 ID기반 AAA인증 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식의 검증을 위해 기존 방식을 비교 평가하여 암호학적인 안전성과 연산량의 효율성을 검증한다. 제안 방식은 이동 노드의 인증시 2개의 난수를 생성하여 안전성을 제공하며, Mobile 노드의 지수연산을 줄임으로 계산 전력적 측면에서 효율적이고 서버의 성능에 따라 인증 수행 시간을 감소 시켜 끊김 없는 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 장점을 갖는다.

In this paper, we propose a security architecture for HDLC-based T4 class common data link. The common data links are composed of point-to-point, multi-to-point, and point-to-multi mode. For multi-to-point mode, one node has a bundle of point-to-point links with different end-point on the other side of the links. Thus multi-to-point mode can be considered as a bundle of point-to-point mode. Point-to-multi mode is broadcasting link. For point-to-point mode we adopted robust security network scheme to establish a secure data link, and for multi-to-point mode we use broadcast encryption scheme based on ID-based cryptography to distribute encryption key for broadcasting message encryption. We also included MACsec technology for point-to-point data link security. Computational and communicational complexity analysis on the broadcast encryption have been done.

As the ad hoc networks have been received a great deal of attention to not only the military but also the industry applications, some security mechanisms are required for implementing a practical ad hoc application. In this paper, we propose a security architecture in ad hoc networks for the purpose of supporting ID-based public key cryptosystems because of the advantage that ID-based schemes require less complex infrastructure compared with the traditional public key cryptosystems. We assume a trusted key generation center which only issues a private key derived from IDs of every nodes in the system setup phase, and use NIL(Node ID List) and NRL(Node Revocation List) in order to distribute the information about IDs used as public keys in our system. Furthermore, we propose a collaborative status checking mechanism that is performed by nodes themselves not by a central server in ad-hoc network to check the validity of the IDs.

When a signer signs a message, strong designated verifier signature allows the signer to designate a verifier. Only the designated verifier can make sure that the signature is generated by the signer. In addition, no one except the designated verifier can know the signature generated by some signer. In this paper, we propose an identity-based strong designated verifier signature scheme where users' public keys are identities. Our proposed scheme is the first identity-based strong designated verifier scheme from lattices. Naturally, our proposed scheme is secure against quantum computing attacks and has low computational complexity.

Delegation of signing capability is a common practice in various applications. Mambo et al. proposed a proxy signatures as a solutions for delegation of signing capability. Proxy signatures allow a designated proxy signer to sign on behalf of an original signer. After the concept of proxy signature scheme is proposed, many variants are proposed to support more general delegation setting. To capture all possible delegation structures, the concept of delegation network was proposed by Aura. ID-based cryptography, which is suited for flexible environment, is desirable to construct a delegation network. Chow et al proposed an ID-based delegation network. In the computational point of view, their solution requires E pairing operations and N elliptic curve scalar multiplications where E and N are the number of edges and nodes in a delegation structure, respectively. In this paper, we proposed an efficient ID-based delegation network which requires only E pairing operations. Moreover, we can design a modified delegation network that requires only N pairing operations.

We propose a Quantum Authentication and Key distribution protocol based on one-time n using one-way Hash function. The designated users can authenticate each other and the arbitrator using their one-time ID and distribute a quantum secret key using remained GHZ states after authentication procedure. Though the help of the arbitrator is needed in the process of authentication and key distribution, our protocol prevents the arbitrator from finding out the shared secret key even if the arbitrator becomes an active attacker. Unconditional security can be proved in our protocol as the other QKD protocols.

IETF suggested AAA for safe and reliable user authentication on various network and protocol caused by development in internet and increase in users. Diameter standard authentication system does not provide mutual authentication and non-repudiation. AAA authentication system using public key was suggested to supplement such Diameter authentication but application in mobile service control nodes is difficult due to overhead of communication and arithmetic. ID based AAA authentication system was suggested to overcome such weak point but it still has the weak point against collusion attack or forgery attack. In this thesis, new ID based AAA authentication system is suggested which is safe against collusion attack and forgery attack and reduces arithmetic quantity of mobile nodes with insufficient arithmetic and power performance. In this thesis, cryptological safety and arithmetical efficiency is tested to test the suggested system through comparison and assessment of current systems. Suggested system uses two random numbers to provide stability at authentication of mobile nodes. Also, in terms of power, it provides the advantage of seamless service by reducing authentication executing time by the performance of server through improving efficiency with reduced arithmetic at nodes.

In this paper, we analyze Shin's proposed dynamic ID-based user authentication scheme for TMIS(Telecare Medicine Information System), and Shin's authentication scheme is vulnerable to smart card loss attacks, allowing attackers to acquire user IDs, which enables user impersonation attack. In 2019, Shin's proposed authentication scheme attempted to generate a strong random number using ECC, claiming that it is safe to lose a smart card because it is impossible to calculate random number r'i due to the difficulty of the ECC algorithm without knowing random number ri. However, after analyzing Shin's authentication scheme in this paper, the use of transmission messages and smart cards makes it easy to calculate random numbers r'i, which also enables attackers to generate session keys. In addition, Shin's authentication scheme were analyzed to have significantly greater overhead than other authentication scheme, including vulnerabilities to safety analysis, the lack of a way to pass the server's ID to users, and the lack of biometric characteristics with slightly different templates.
