비신뢰 기반 분산키 생성은 다수의 참여자가 개인키를 모르는 상태에서 개인키의 샤미르 비밀 공유를 공동 생성하는 프로토콜이다. 또한 이를 임계값 서명으로 확장할 경우 개인키를 복원하지 않고도 다수 참여자간의 암호 프로토콜을 통해서 디지털 서명을 생성할 수 있도록 한다. 본 연구는 활용성이 높은 (1,3) 샤미르 비밀 공유 구조에서 한 공유 값을 분실할 경우 동일한 개인키에 대한 전체 공유 값을 비신뢰 기반으로 재생성해서 공유 구조를 복구하는 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안 프로토콜은 정확성과 기밀성 측면에서 분산키 생성과 동일한 보안 요건을 갖춘다. 블록체인 기반 가상자산 관리에 적용할 경우 안전한 개인키 관리와 서명 권한의 위임 및 불능화를 가능하게 한다.

Current group key agreement protocols(often tree-based) involve unnecessary delays because members with low-performance computer systems can join group key computation. These delays are caused by the computations needed to balance a key tree after membership changes. An alternate approach to group key generation that reduces delays is the dynamic prioritizing mechanism of filtering low performance members in group key generation. This paper presents an efficient tree-based group key agreement protocol and the results of its performance evaluation. The proposed approach to filtering of low performance members in group key generation is scalable and it requires less computational overhead than conventional tree-based protocols.

The air interface supports a security layer which provides the key exchange protocol, authentication protocol, and encryption protocol. The authentication is performed on the encryption protocol packet. The authentication protocol header or trailer may contain the digital signature that is used to authenticate a portion of the authentication protocol packet that is authenticated. The encryption protocol may add a trailer to hide the actual length of the plaintext of padding to be used by the encryption algorithm. The encryption protocol header may contain variables such as the initialization vector (IV) to be used by the encryption protocol. It is our aim to firstly compute the session key created from the D H key exchange algorithm, and thereof the authenticating key and the encryption key being generated from the session key.

Current group key agreement protocols, which are often tree-based, have unnecessary delays that are caused when members with low-performance computer systems join a group key computation process. These delays are caused by the computations necessary to balance a key tree after membership changes. An alternate approach to group key generation that reduces delays is the dynamic prioritizing mechanism of queue-based group key generation. We propose an efficient group key agreement protocol and present the results of performance evaluation tests of this protocol. The queue-based approach that we propose is scalable and requires less computational overhead than conventional tree-based protocols.

4세대 이동통신 기술인 LTE환경에서 사용자 단말기와 사용자를 확인하는 초기 식별자를 평문으로 전달하는 취약점으로 인한 사용자 정보가 노출되는 피해가 발생하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 고유 식별정보의 노출 문제점에 대한 해결책으로 시도응답을 이용한 일회용 패스워드와 AES기반의 Milenage 키 생성 알고리즘을 활용하여 안전한 초기 식별 통신을 위한 상호인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. Milenage 키 생성 알고리즘은 기존 프로토콜에서도 사용되고 있는 키 생성 알고리즘으로써 암호화 키, 무결성 키, 메시지 인증코드를 생성하는 알고리즘이다. LTE 네트워크에서 표준으로 사용되고 있는 LTE Security 프로토콜은 EPS-AKA를 기반으로 사용자 단말기와 사용자를 식별할 수 있는 초기 식별자를 상호인증시 노출되는 취약점이 나타나는 한계점으로 인해 UE 추적 가능성과 IMSI 노출로 인한 사용자 개인정보 노출 취약점을 보완하여 노출의 문제점을 최소화 한다.

As people increasingly rely on mobile networks in modern society, mobile communication security is becoming more and more important. In the Long Term Evolution/System Architecture Evolution (LTE/SAE) architecture, the 3rd Generation Partnership (3GPP) team has also developed the improved Evolved Packet System Authentication and Key Agreement (EPS AKA) protocol based on the 3rd Generation Authentication and Key Agreement (3G AKA) protocol in order to provide mutual authentication and secure communication between the user and the network. Unfortunately, the EPS AKA also has several vulnerabilities such as sending the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) in plain text (which leads to disclosure of user identity and further causes location and tracing of the user, Mobility Management Entity (MME) attack), man-in-middle attack, etc. Hence, in this paper, we analyze the EPS AKA protocol and point out its deficiencies and then propose an Efficient and Security Enhanced Authentication and Key agreement (ESE-EPS AKA) protocol based on hybrid of Dynamic Pseudonym Mechanism (DPM) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) retaining the original framework and the infrastructure of the LTE network. Then, our evaluation proves that the proposed new ESE-EPS AKA protocol is relatively more efficient, secure and satisfies some of the security requirements such as confidentiality, integrity and authentication.

In order for all participants at video conference to communicate mutually, the conference key should be necessary. In this paper, we present the communication protocol that generates a conference key efficiently based on $(\upsilon,\kappa,\lambda)$-configuration, one class of block designs, which minimizes message transmission overhead needed for this key. Especially, in the case of ${\lambda}=1$, the protocol requires only $O(\sqrt[v]{v})$ messages, where v is the number of participants.

Group communication is becoming increasingly popular in Internet applications such as videoconferences, online chatting programs, games, and gambling. For secure communications, the integrity of messages, member authentication, and confidentiality must be provided among group members. To maintain message integrity, all group members use the Group Key (GK) for encrypting and decrypting messages while providing enough security to protect against passive attacks. Tree-based Group Diffie-Hellman (TGDH) is an efficient group key agreement protocol to generate the GK. TGDH assumes all members have an equal computing power. One of the characteristics of distributed computing and grid environments is heterogeneity; the member can be at a workstation, a laptop or even a mobile computer. Member reordering in the TDGH protocol could potentially lead to an improved protocol; such reordering should capture the heterogeneity of the network as well as latency. This research investigates dynamic reordering mechanisms to consider not only the overhead involved but also the scalability of the proposed protocol.
