In recent years, peer-to-peer network have a greate deal of attention for distributed computing or collaborative application, and work of ID-based public key systems have been focusing on the area of cryptography. In this paper, we propose ID-based group key management protocols for secure communication in autonomous peer group. Each member obtains his public/private key pair derived from his identification string from Private Key Generator. No central server participates in group key management protocol instead, all group members share the burden of group key management by the collaboration of themselves, so that our scheme avoids the single point of failure problem. In addition, our scheme considers the nature of dynamic peer group such as frequent joining and leaving of a member.

In this paper we propose a secure multicast key distribution protocol using OFT(One-way Function Trees). The proposed protocol is a hybrid scheme of DKMP(Distributed Key Management Protocol) that guarantees all group member's participation for generating a group key, and CKMP(Centralized Key Management Protocol) that makes it easy to manage group key and design a protocol. Since the proposed protocol also computes group key using only hash function and bitwise-XOR, computational overhead ran be reduced. Hence it is suitably and efficiently adaptive to dynamic multicast environment that membership change event frequently occurs.

A major challenge achieving scalable access control for a large number of subscribers in a public broadcast is to distribute key update messages reliably to all stateless receivers. However, in a public broadcast, the rekeying messages can be dropped or compromised during transmission over an insecure broadcast channel, or transmitted to receivers while they were off-line. In this study, we propose a novel group key management scheme. It features a mechanism to allow legitimate receivers to recover the current group key, even if they lose key update messages for long-term sessions. The scheme uses short hint messages and member computation. Performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme has the advantages of scalability and efficient rekeying compared to previous reliable group key distribution schemes. The proposed key management scheme targets a conditional access system in a media broadcast in which there is no feedback channel from receivers to the broadcasting station.

LTE/SAE has presented the handover key management to revoke the compromised keys and to isolate corrupted network devices. In this paper, we identify that the handover key management is vulnerable to de-synchronization attacks, which is jeopardizing the forward secrecy of handover key management. Also, an adversary could prevent the UE from creating the secure link with eNodeB, which is delaying the handover procedure. In this paper, we present a counrermeasure to prevent above attacks, and analyze the performance issues of the proposed protocol.

A next generation military communication system called Tactical Information Communication Network(TICN) is designed to advance into large capacity, high speed, and long distance wireless relay transmission. To support mobility in battlefield, the application of Ad-hoc networking technology to its wireless communication is being considered. In Ad-hoc network, the key management technique is very important to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid key management scheme considering the hierarchical characteristics of the tactical ad-hoc such as TICN. For upper layer with sufficient energy and computation capability, we apply PKI based key management scheme. For lower layer with restricted resources, we propose a new key management scheme using the location-based authentication to ensure the energy efficiency.

A blockchain-based decentralized service can offer reliable services without the centralized server by operating the system based on the consensus among byzantine participants. Participants can interact with the blockchain network through a digital signature mechanism but the private key management issue remains unresolved. NIST SP800-57 provides a key-management guidance but this guidance is not appropriate for blockchain-based services because it does not consider a decentralized environment. In this paper, we define the core functions of the blockchain wallet application for private key management and present security protections according to NIST SP800-57, as well as related techniques to satisfy them. Finally, we propose the private key management guideline for secure blockchain-based decentralized services.

Theoretical foundations of the knowledge management(KM) have been perceived still developing in the field. And, the literature shows many key success factors for KM, but, in more conceptual and abstract term. Companies interested in knowlege management demand for practical guidelines. Based on the constituent elements of KM, this study classifies key success factors identified from thirty three success cases, domestic and in other countries. Further, fifteen propositions are suggested and discussed for future research and project management in KM.

Recently, the Internet of Things are developing in accordance with the technology of implementation in low-cost, small-size, low power consumption and smart sensor that can communicate using the internet. Especially, key management researches for secure information transmission based on the Internet of Things (IoT) are actively performing. But, Internet of Things(IoT) are uses sensor. Therefore low-power consumption and small-memory are restrictive condition. As a result, managing the key is difficult as a general security measure. However, The problem of secure key management is an essential challenge For the continuous development of the Internet of things. In this paper, we propose a key distribution and management technique in secure Internet of things. In the key generation and management stage, it satisfies the conditions and without physically constrained for IoT based communication.

In 2014, Wuu et al. proposed a group key management scheme based on (2,2) secret sharing. They asserted that their scheme satisfies security requirements and mutual authentication. But this paper pointed out that their scheme does not satisfy mutual authentication and impersonating attack. In this paper, we describe the reasons and processes that a malicious group member can impersonate the Group Key Distributor. To fill the gaps, we discuss the problems, and propose an improved protocol.

Being in a knowledge-based industry, many construction organizations are seeking to manage their own knowledge in an effective way. To manage knowledge, the organizations must motivate in-house people to share their knowledge. However, some barriers to knowledge sharing do exist and researches on these barriers considering construction organizations' characteristics seem rare. This study aims to identify key barriers to knowledge sharing considering the characteristics of construction organizations. Based on the identification, strategic responses to each key barrier are presented in two perspectives of technical and behavioral approach to activate knowledge sharing.
