In resource-constrained, low-cost, radio-frequency identification (RFID) sensor-based mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), ensuring security without performance degradation is a major challenge. This paper introduces a novel combination of steps in lightweight protocol integration to provide a secure network for RFID sensor-based MANETs using error-correcting codes (ECCs). The proposed scheme chooses a quasi-cyclic ECC. Key pairs are generated using the ECC for establishing a secure message communication. Probability analysis shows that code-based identification; key generation; and authentication and trust management schemes protect the network from Sybil, eclipse, and de-synchronization attacks. A lightweight model for the proposed sequence of steps is designed and analyzed using an Alloy analyzer. Results show that selection processes with ten nodes and five subgroup controllers identify attacks in only a few milliseconds. Margrave policy analysis shows that there is no conflict among the roles of network members.

3 Generation Partnership Project(3GPP)에서는 3세대 이동통신 기술 중의 하나인 Universal Mobile Telecommunications System(UMTS)의 무선 구간의 안전한 통신을 위해 인증 및 키 교환 프로토콜인 Authentication and Key Agreement(UMTS AKA) 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 하지만, UMTS AKA는 네트워크 대역폭 소모, 저장 공간의 오버헤드, SQN의 동기화 문제 등이 제기되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 UMTS AKA 프로토콜의 문제점들을 해결하는 티켓 기반의 T-AKA 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜은 프라이버시를 보호하고 상호 인증이 가능하며 전방향 안전성을 제공한다.

UMTS(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System)의 인증 및 키 교환 프로토콜은 기본적으로 3GPP(3 Generation Partnership Project)에서 제안한 UMTS AKA(Authentication and Key Agreement) 프로토콜을 표준으로 사용한다. 하지만 UMTS AKA 프로토콜은 네트워크 대역폭 소모, 저장 공간의 오버헤드, SQN 동기화 문제 등이 제기되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 UMTS AKA 관련 프로토콜들의 문제점을 분석하고 이를 해결하기 위한 전방향 안전성을 제공하는 F-AKA 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안 하는 프로토콜은 상호인증을 제공하고, 프라이버시를 강화하였으며 전방향 안전성을 보장한다.

In a ubiquitous environment made up of multiple sensors, most sensors participate in communications with limited battery, and the sensor node isn't able to participate in communications when all the battery is used up. When an existing authentication method is used for the sensor node which has to participate in a long term communication with limited battery, it creates a problem by making the length of network maintenance or sensor node's operation time relatively shorte. Therefore, a network structure where RM (Register Manager) node and AM (Authentication Manager) node are imported to solve the energy consumption problem during a communication process is presented in this thesis. This offers a low power protocol based on safety through a mutual authentication during communications. Through registration and authentication manager nodes, each sensor nodes are ensured of safety and the algorithm of key's generation, encryption/descramble and authentication is processed with faster operation speed. So the amount of electricity used up during the communications between sensor nodes has been evaluated. In case of the amount of electrical usage, an average of $34.783\%$ for the same subnet and 36.855 for communications with two different subnets, are reduced. The proposed method is a protocol which maintains the limited battery for a long time to increase the effectiveness of energy usage in sensor nodes and can also increase the participation rate of communication by sensor nodes.

VANET(Vehicular Ad-hoc Network) is a kind of ad hoc networks consist of intelligence vehicular ad nodes, and has become a hot emerging research project in many field. It provide traffic safety, cooperative driving and etc. but has also some security problems that can be occurred in general ad hoc networks. Also, in VANET, vehicles shoul d be able to authenticate each other to securely communicate with network-based infrastructure, and their locations and identifiers should not be exposed from the communication messages. This paper proposes V2I(Vehicular to Infra structure) authentication protocol that anonymity and untraceability of vehicular using Error Correcting Code that ge nerate encoding certification using generation matrix. The proposed scheme based on ECC resolves overhead problems of vehicular secure key management of KDC.

In the virtual home environment (VHE), which was proposed to offer global roaming and personal service environment portability, user's profiles and service logics are conveyed from home network to visited network to provide services at the visited network. Because user's profiles and service logics may contain confidential information, some procedures for mutual authentication among entities for offering confidence are needed. For these issues, we propose and analyze three 3-Party mutual authentication Protocols adaptable to the VHE in 3G ; password based mutual authentication protocol, mutual authentication protocol with CHAP and key exchange and mutual authentication protocol with trusted third party.

Internet banking is one of many services provided by financial institutions that have become very popular with an increasing trend. Due to the increased amount of usage of the service, Internet banking has become a target from adversaries. One of the points that are at risk of an attack is the login process. Therefore, it is necessary to have a security mechanism that can reduce this risk. This research designs and develops a multi-factor authentication protocol, starting from a registration system, which generates authentication factors, to an actual authentication mechanism. These factors can be categorised into two groups: short term and long term. For the authentication protocol, only three messages need to be exchanged between a client and a financial institution's server. Many cryptographic processes are incorporated into the protocol, such as symmetric and asymmetric cryptography, a symmetric key generation process, a method for generating and verifying digital signatures. All of the authentication messages have been proved and analysed by the logic of GNY and the criteria of OWASP-AT-009. Even though there are additional factors of authentication, users do not really feel any extra load on their part, as shown by the satisfactory survey.

This paper introduces the concept of random security amplification to amplify security in a quantum key distribution system. It seems to provide security amplification using the relationship between quantum error correction and security. In addition;we show that random security amplification in terms of security amplification offers better security than using existing universal hash function. We explain how the universal hash function enhances security using the BB84 protocol, which is a typical example of QKD. Finally, the proposed random security amplification and the conventional scheme compare the security according to the key generation rate in the quantum QKD.

The FTP that provides file transfer capabilities to/from another station cannot provides data confidentialities. The FTPS and SFTP can support a security functionalities. The FTPS needs a SSL layer and SFTP use a functions of SSH. And therefore the FTPS or SFTP needs an additional modules such as SSL or SSH. In this paper, we propose a new Secured FTP protocol that can support the security functions without extra security system. The Secured FTP uses Diffie-Hellman key agreement algorithm for shared secret key generation and AES-Counter algorithm for data encryption algorithm. Our designed Secured FTP is implemented in Linux environments and the proper operations of implemented Secured FTP is verified.
