In line with the advanced wireless communication technology, M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication has drawn attention in industry. M2M communication features are installed and operated in the fields where human accessibility is highly limited such as disaster, safety, construction, health and welfare, climate, environment, logistics, culture, defense, medical care, agriculture and stockbreeding. In M2M communication, machine replaces people for automatic communication and countermeasures as part of unmanned information management and machine operation. Wireless M2M inter-device communication is likely to be exposed to intruders' attacks, causing security issues, which warrants proper security measures including cross-authentication of whether devices are legitimate. Therefore, research on multiple security protocols has been conducted. The present study applied SessionKey, HashFunction and Nonce to address security issues in M2M communication and proposed a safe protocol with reinforced security properties. Notably, unlike most previous studies arguing for the security of certain protocols based on mathematical theorem proving, the present study used the formal verification with Casper/FDR to prove the safety of the proposed protocol. In short, the proposed protocol was found to be safe and secure.

In parallel with evolving information communication technology, M2M(Machine-to-Machine) industry has implemented multi-functional and high-performance systems, and made great strides with IoT(Internet of Things) and IoE(Internet of Everything). Authentication, confidentiality, anonymity, non-repudiation, data reliability, connectionless and traceability are prerequisites for communication security. Yet, the wireless transmission section in M2M communication is exposed to intruders' attacks. Any security issues attributable to M2M wireless communication protocols may lead to serious concerns including system faults, information leakage and privacy challenges. Therefore, mutual authentication and security are key components of protocol design. Recently, secure communication protocols have been regarded as highly important and explored as such. The present paper draws on hash function, random numbers, secret keys and session keys to design a secure communication protocol. Also, this paper tests the proposed protocol with a formal verification tool, Casper/FDR, to demonstrate its security against a range of intruders' attacks. In brief, the proposed protocol meets the security requirements, addressing the challenges without any problems.

미래 산업으로서 주목받고 있는 M2M(사물지능통신)은 IT 기술, 이동통신, 무선기술 그리고 기기의 발전을 통해 많은 기술 연구가 진행되고 있다. 사람의 개입 없이 이루어지는 M2M 통신환경은 데이터 노출, 도용, 프라이버시 문제 등 여러 가지 보안 위협에 쉽게 노출될 수 있는 가능성이 존재하기 때문에 보안 표준과 안전한 통신 프로토콜 기술개발이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 디바이스의 정보를 서버에 저장하지 않아 공격자가 서버의 공격을 통해 저장된 값을 알아내더라도 디바이스의 정보가 노출되지 않고 디바이스와 서버간의 안전한 통신을 할 수 있는 M2M 보안프로토콜을 제안하고 정형검증 도구를 이용하여 안전성을 분석하였다.

The auto industry has significantly evolved to the extent that much attention is paid to M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication. In M2M communication which was first used in meteorology, environment, logistics, national defense, agriculture and stockbreeding, devices automatically communicate and operate in accordance with varying situations. M2M system is applied to vehicles, specifically to device-to-device communication inside cars, vehicle-to-vehicle communication, communication between vehicles and traffic facilities and that between vehicles and surroundings. However, communication systems are characterized by potential intruders' attacks in transmission sections, which may cause serious safety problems if vehicles' operating system, control system and engine control parts are attacked. Thus, device-to-device secure communication has been actively researched. With a view to secure communication between vehicular devices, the present study drew on hash functions and complex mathematical formulae to design a protocol, which was then tested with Casper/FDR, a tool for formal verification of protocols. In brief, the proposed protocol proved to operate safely against a range of attacks and be effective in practical application.

사물인터넷(Internet of Things; IoT)이 발달하면서 FIWARE, oneM2M, AllJoyn 등의 많은 IoT 플랫폼이 개발되고 관련 표준들도 제정되고 있다. 이런 환경에서는 각 IoT 플랫폼의 통신 프로토콜, 보안정책 등이 상이하기 때문에 데이터가 연동되기 어렵고, 보안 인터워킹을 수행하는 것은 더욱 어려운 문제다. oneM2M과 FIWARE의 경우, Fi-Proxy 인터워킹 어댑터를 이용하여 상호간 인터워킹이 시연된 사례가 있지만 그 과정에서 보안이 고려되지는 않았다. oneM2M은 아직 보안 컴포넌트가 별도로 존재하지 않기 때문에, 본 논문에서는 oneM2M-FIWARE 보안 인터워킹 시나리오에 적용할 수 있는 OAuth 2.0 기반 oneM2M 보안 컴포넌트를 구현하고, FIWARE 보안 아키텍처를 분석 및 구현하여 시사점을 도출한다. 또한 본 논문은 oneM2M과 FIWARE 간의 보안 인터워킹 아키텍처를 제안하고, 이를 기반으로 향후 여러 도메인에 활용될 수 있는 구조를 가진 LED 예제를 개발한다.

Recently, as IT technologies developed, communication technologies of a various forms that satisfied convenience of user are being researched. Among various research, unlike traditional forms of communication, M2M communication is getting attention that without any control or involvement of people to establish communication between devices. However, the M2M communication could more easily be exposed to many security problems such as data exposure, data theft, unauthorized change and delete and privacy. Therefore, in this paper, we derive security requirements and propose the M2M communication architecture that provide a secure M2M communication environment. Also, we propose a secure mutual authentication and key establishment protocol between a M2M device or gateway domain and a M2M network domain. The proposed protocol is secure against replay attack, impersonation attack and protect a user privacy and tracing.

In this paper, we present a security analysis of Lightweight RFID Mutual Authentication Protocols-LMAP[10], $M^2AP$[11], EMAP[12]. Based on simple logic operations, the protocols were designed to be suitable for lightweight environments such as RFID systems. In [8,9], it is shown that these protocols are vulnerable to do-synchronization attacks with a high probability. The authors also presented an active attack that partially reveals a tag's secret values including its ID. In this paper, we point out an error from [9] and show that their do-synchronization attack would always succeed. We also improve the active attack in [9] to show an adversary can compute a tag's ID as well as certain secret keys in a deterministic way. As for $M^2AP$ and EMAP, we show that eavesdropping $2{\sim}3$ consecutive sessions is sufficient to reveal a tag's essential secret values including its ID that allows for tracing, do-synchronization and/or subsequent impersonations.

Recently, an application business model was proposed to implement an M-coupon system using the NFC-based mobile devices. In this paper, the security requirements were surveyed for a secure M-coupon system and to analyze the threats on the existing NFC-based M-coupon protocols. After considering the implementation efficiency and security, this paper presents a novel M-coupon protocol based on the Diffie-Hellman key agreement scheme. This protocol can be an alternative to solve the security problems related to the PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) and secret key distribution. Furthermore, this M-coupon protocol is designed to provide user authentication and counteract the relay attack.

Machine to Machine (M2M) 통신은 수 많은 장비들이 우리 주변환경의 정보를 감지하여 상호간에 주고받는 방법을 활용한다. Third generation partnership project (3GPP)는 이러한 M2M 통신을 활용하여 유비쿼터스 환경과 자가인식형 서비스를 제공하려 하고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 추세에 맞추어 새로운 개념의 통신인 3GPP M2M 통신의 시스템 구조, 특징들과 이에 대한 3GPP의 연구방향 등에 대한 튜토리얼로 사용될 수 있도록 하기 위해 작성되었다. 특히 M2M 통신에서의 특징들을 구체화하는 과정에서의 보안상 위협과 이에 대처하기 위한 요구사항들에 대해서 강조하였다. 이러한 보안상 위협을 제거하는 요구사항을 만족하면서 네트워크에 과부하를 가하지 않도록 하기 위한 그룹 기반의 최적화된 인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 그룹을 기반으로 bilinear pairing을 사용하여 인증을 진행하며, 통신 딜레이를 줄이고 네트워크의 중심 장비에 과부하를 줄이기 위해 HSS(Home Subscriber Server)의 참여를 제한한 인증 및 키 동의 프로토콜을 제안하고, 이에 따른 연산 및 통신 오버헤드를 분석한다.
