  • There are some cases when SOAP message, where WS-Security and WS-Policy elements are included, may consist of a sensitive and important data. In these cases, the message is highly recommended to be secured. The question exists of how to quickly identify that SOAP message satisfies security requirement and security level of a SOAP message. In this paper, we propose a technique called Bit-Stream which depends on the importance of SOAP elements to automatically identify the vulnerabilities and risks while offering advice for higher security.

  • Using biometrics to verify a person's identity has several advantages over the present practices of personal identification numbers (PINs) and passwords. At the same time, improvements in VLSI technology have recently led to the introduction of smart cards with 32-bit RISC processors. To gain maximum security in verification systems using biometrics, verification as well as storage of the biometric pattern must be done in the smart card. However, because of the limited resources (processing power and memory space) of the smart card, integrating biometrics into it is still an open challenge. In this paper, we propose a fingerprint verification algorithm using a multi-resolution accumulator array that can be executed in restricted environments such as the smart card. We first evaluate both the number of instructions executed and the memory requirement for each step of a typical fingerprint verification algorithm. We then develop a memory-efficient algorithm for the most memory-consuming step (alignment) using a multi-resolution accumulator array. Our experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the required memory space by a factor of 40 and can be executed in real time in resource-constrained environments without significantly degrading accuracy.

  • Graph expression of attack scenarios is a necessary method for analysis of vulnerability in server as well as the design for defence against attack. Although various requirement analysis model are used for this expression, they are restrictive to express combination of complex scenarios. Role Based Petri Net suggested in this paper offer an efficient expression model based role on Petri Net which has the advantage of concurrency and visuality and can create unknown scenarios.

  • A resident registration number is used to confirm and prove his/her identity in a government/non-governmental agency. It is a essential requirement to become the registered member on internet website in Korea. It is serious problem that the resident registration number and name are outflowed in internet and misused by others. So the MIC(Ministry of Information and Communication) in Korea plans and operates the identification system using I-PIN that integrate 5 alternative methods of resident registration number. In this paper, we analyze the problem about the method of 5 I-PIN services and show the security analysis on the implementation vulnerabilities of I-PIN services. we also analyze 17 websites that provides identification system using I-PIN. Finally, we analyze the overall problem of I-PIN service and propose the countermeasure about the problem.

  • The flood and environment surveillance network on riverside is a network requiring a way to efficiently manage the information from all kinds of sensors, along with an optical communication device that can deliver high-quality video information at high speed. Since on-site prompt recovery is very important especially for communication problems that occurred due to cut-off or aged network, various researches have been carried out on this. However, because the security against outside hacking or outside intrusion with illegal purposes is very important for environment surveillance network, such as the national backbone network, an efficient network maintenance and repair should be enabled while satisfying security and reliability at the same time. A characteristic of requirement is that when security is improved, the efficiency of maintenance and repair drops as they are conflicting to each other. Therefore, this research proposed a system in order to satisfy the conflicting requirement and improve security, by developing a one-way Bypass TAP and an android-based smartphone app that can enable efficient network maintenance and repair.

  • As smart bands make life more convenient and provide a positive lifestyle, many people are now using them. Since smart bands deal with private information, security design and implementation for smart band system become necessary. To make a trustworthy smart band, we must derive the security requirements of the system first, and then design the system satisfying the security requirements. In this paper, we apply threat modeling techniques such as Data Flow Diagram, STRIDE, and Attack Tree to the smart band system to identify threats and derive security requirements accordingly. Through threat modeling, we found the vulnerabilities of the smart band system and successfully exploited smart bands with them. To defend against these threats, we propose security measures and verify that they are secure by using Scyther which is a tool for automatic verification of security protocol.

  • The personal bio-information supplied from the PHD(Personal Health Device) for personal health management is very sensitive in relation to a personal living body in an aspect of privacy protection. On the assumption thai the information is about a patient, it is more serious problem if it is revealed to a third party. However. the established ISO (International Organizations for Standardization) standard protocol[1] in October 2009 has just considered a transmission part for mutual exchange of bio-information between individuals, but has never actually considered security elements. Accordingly, this paper is to show all sorts of security threats according to personal health management in the u-health environment and security requirements newly.

  • The various information services can be delivered by smartphone through advanced high-speed mobile communication. A smartphone is a mobile device that offers more powerful computing capacity than feature phone. Therefore this device can provide such as web surfing, editing documents, playing video, and playing games. A lot of personal information stored on smartphone. Because it has High usability. Personal information Leaks if the smart phone is lost or stolen may become a big problem. In this paper we have analyzed existing method for providing secure storage and user authentication on mobile platform and derived security requirement. Therefore we propose the following scheme that satisfy security requirement. Proposed scheme providing secure storage with preventing authentication bypass, and availability from damaged data to access secure area.

  • With response to the critical issue of global warming, Smart Grid system has been extensively investigated as next efficient power grid system. Domestically, Korean is trying to expand the usage of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and the charging infrastructure in order to replace the current transportation using fossil fuels holding 20% of overall CO2 emission. The EVs charging infrastructures are combined with IT technologies to build intelligent environments but have considerable number of cyber security issues because of its inherent nature of the technologies. This work not only provides logical architecture of EV charging infrastructures with security threats based on them but also analyses security requirements against security threats in order to overcome the adversarial activities to Smart Grid.

  • 클라우드 컴퓨팅이 활성화됨에 따라 다양한 클라우드 서비스가 대중적으로 보급되고, 그에 따른 클라우드 컴퓨팅 관련 제품들을 IT시장에서 쉽게 접할 수 있게 되었다. 일반적으로 IT 제품군에 대해서 보안성평가를 수행하고, 그 결과 값을 통해 소비자에게 객관적인 지침으로 활용될 수 있는 국제 표준인 공통평가기준에서는 보안 제품군에 대한 보안목표명세서인 보호프로파일을 제공하고 있다. 하지만 현재 일반적인 IT제품군에 대한 보호프로파일은 존재하나 클라우드 관련 제품군에 대해서는 보호프로파일이 존재하지 않아 보안성평가를 위한 방법이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 공통평가기준을 준수하는 클라우드 환경에 적용 가능한 보안기능요구사항을 도출하고자 한다. 도출한 보안기능요구사항을 통해 클라우드 제품군에 대한 보안성을 적용하기 위한 평가 방법으로 사용될 수 있다.
