Recent Linux operating systems having been increasingly used, ranging from automotive consoles, CCTV, IoT devices, and mobile devices to various versions of the kernel. Because these devices can be used as strong evidence in criminal investigations, there is a risk of destroying evidence through file deletion. Ext filesystem forensics has been studied in depth because it can recovery deleted files without depending on the kind of device. However, studies have been carried out without consideration of characteristics of file system which may vary depending on the kernel. This problem can lead to serious situations, such as those that can impair investigative ability and cause doubt of evidence ability, when an actual investigation attempts to analyze a different version of the kernel. Because investigations can be performed on various distribution and kernel versions of Linux file systems at the actual investigation site, analysis of the metadata changes that occur when files are deleted by Linux distribution and kernel versions is required. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the difference of metadata according to the Linux kernel as a solution to this and recovery deleted file. After that, the investigating agency needs to consider the metadata change caused by the difference of Linux kernel version when performing Ext filesystem forensics.

역할기반 접근제어(RBAC : Role Based Access Control)는 임의적 접근제어와 강제적 접근제어에 비해 견고함과 유연성을 제공한다. 따라서 RBAC은 최근 금융시스템 및 병원시스템 등에서 많은 관심의 대상이 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 안전성이 인증된 다중등급보안(MLS : Multi-Level Security) 리눅스를 이용하여 인터넷상에서 가상은행의 금융업무를 안전하게 처리할 수 있는 다중등급기반의 RBAC 시스템을 구현함을 보인다.

Internet is spread by the rapid development of information telecommunication infrastructure. But there are swinging damages becuase of most of the user has a shortage of knowledge. Especially, in proportion to increase of Linux user as PC, that is exposed to various threatener and is target of malicious attacker. In this paper, design and implement Fakeport based on Linux to control port efficiently and easily for protection against attack.

Google Android framework consists of an operating system and software platform for mobile devices. Using a general-purpose Linux operating system in mobile device has some advantages but also security risks. Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a kernel-based protection approach which can help to reduce potential damage from successful attacks. However, there are some challenges to integrate SELinux in Android. In this research, we do a study on how to do the integration and find out four challenges. The first one is that the Android file system (yaff2) does not support security namespace for extended attribute (xattr) which is required by SELinux. The second one is that it's difficult to apply SELinux policy to Dalvik process on which an Android application runs on. The third one is that Android lacks methods, tools and libraries to interact with SELinux. The last one is how to update the SELinux policy automatically when installing or removing an application. In this paper, we propose solutions for the above limitations that make the SELinux more adaptive and suitable for Android framework.

We propose a novel authentication protocol for wireless mesh network. The proposed authentication protocol is based on the password scheme for convenience of users. The proposed protocol is evaluated through three analyses. The correctness of the proposed protocol is proved using the GNY analysis. By the security analysis, we show that the proposed protocol is resistant to various attacks. For the performance analysis, we implemented the protocol in Linux operating system based laptop and measured the transmission time. The analytic results show that the proposed protocol provides the secure wireless mesh network without considerable performance degradation.

This paper analyzes security threats in Security Enhanced (SE) Android and proposes a new technique to efficiently protect application data including private information on rooted Android phones. On an unrooted device, application data can be accessed by the application itself according to the access control models. However, on a rooted device, a root-privileged shell can disable part or all of the access control model enforcement procedures. Therefore, a root-privileged shell can directly access sensitive data of other applications, and a malicious application can leak the data of other applications outside the device. To address this problem, the proposed technique allows only some specific processes to access to the data of other applications including private information by modifying the existing SEAndroid Linux Security Module (LSM) Hook function. Also, a new domain type of process is added to the target system to enforce stronger security rules. In addition, the proposed technique separates the directory type of a newly installed application and the directory type of previously installed applications. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can effectively protect the data of each application and incur performance overhead up to or less than 2 seconds.

최근 활발히 개발 중인 보안운영체제의 핵심인 보안커널(security kernel)은 참조모니터(reference monitor)에서 주체(subject)가 객체(object)에 대한 실행(action) 권한을 판단함으로써 접근 제어를 실행한다. 보안운영체제의 대표적인 접근제어모델에는 다중레벨접근제어(MLS: Multi Level Security)모델과 역할기반접근제어(RBAC: Role Based Access Control) 모델 등이 있다. 리눅스 시스템에서 이러한 접근제어모델을 적용하기 위해서 접근 대상이 되는 객체들의 효과적인 분류가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 리눅스 환경에서 효과적인 접근제어모델을 적용하기 위하여 객체들을 객체 클래스(class)와 유형(type)을 기준으로 분류 하였다.

In this paper, a system configuration method that can practice Linux-based programming language online is presented. The proposed system utilizes the web-server function, which is the biggest feature of the Linux operating system, and simulates the telnet and FTP functions without firewalls or other security restrictions, so that it is possible to practice similar to the actual Linux console. To do this, we analyzed the functional elements that a programming tool should have on the web and established an algorithm to implement it. In particular, a method was implemented in which an error message caused by a user's mistake can appear in the same form as the actual telnet screen. As a result of using the implemented learning system in the class for students, it is possible to practice the Linux programming language online, as well as the instructor can directly check and guide all the learners, so the learner's satisfaction is similar to that of the offline class was confirmed.

The growth of incidents on the Internet has reflected growth of the internet itself and growth of the computing Power. while in Previous years, external attacks tended to originate from those interested trend in exploring the Internet for its own sake and testing their skills, there is an increasing trend towards intrusions motivated by financial, Political, and military objectives. so, attacks on the nation's computer infrastructures are becoming an increasingly serious problem. Even though the problem is ubiquitious, government agencies are particularly appealing targets and they tend to be more willing to reveal such events than commercial organizations. The threat of damage made necessity of security's recognition, as a result, many researches have been carried out into security of system actively. Intrusion Detection technology is detection of intrusion using audit data differently from using traditional simple filtering and informs manager of it. It has security manager of system deal with the intrusion more quickly. but, cause current environment of Internet manager can't doing response Intrusion alert immediately That's why IPS needed. IPS can response automatically the intrusion alert. so, manager is more comfortable and can response quickly.

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.
