  • Based on easy construction and operation compared with infra-structure communication netowrks, and rapid spreading of smart phone having high powered calculation ability and Wi/Fi function, usage of MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network), which is configured with simply several terminals, is increased in applications of emergency communications, leisure, explorations. However, because of supporting difficulty of communication infra-structure makes some defects of malicious information intrusion like as hacking. In this paper, effects of transmission performance caused by information intrusion is analyzed. The results of published studies is based on environment of continuous intrusions, but this paper assumed intermittent attacking condition. In this paper, blackhole attack is used for intrusion type to MANET, voice traffic is used as a application traffic. Compuer simulation, based on NS-2, is used for measuring of performance parameters, and the analysis for the simulation results is shown as considerations of this paper.

  • The Internet is a highly distributed and complex system consisting of billion devices and has become the field of various kinds of conflicts during the last two decades. As a matter of fact, various actors utilise the Internet for illicit purposes, such as for performing distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) and for spreading various types of aggressive malware. Despite the fact that numerous services provide information regarding the threat level of the Internet, they are mostly based on information acquired by their sensors or on offline statistical sampling of various security applications (antivirus software, intrusion detection systems, etc.). This paper introduces proactive threat observatory system (PROTOS), an open-source early warning system that does not require a commercial license and is capable of estimating the threat level across the Internet. The proposed system utilises both a global and a local approach, and is thus able to determine whether a specific host is under an imminent threat, as well as to provide an estimation of the malicious activity across the Internet. Apart from these obvious advantages, PROTOS supports a large-scale installation and can be extended even further to improve the effectiveness by incorporating prediction and forecasting techniques.

  • MPICH-G2 is an MPI implementation to solve complex computational problems by utilizing geographically dispersed computing resources in grid environments. However, the computation nodes in MPICH-G2 are exposed to the external network due to the lack of supporting the private IP clusters, which raises the possibility of malicious security attacks. In order to address this problem, we propose MPICH-GP with a new relay scheme combining NAT(Network Address Translation) service and an user-level proxy. The proxy running on the front-end system of private IP clusters forwards the incoming connection requests to the systems inside the clusters. The outgoing connection requests out of the cluster are forwarded through the NAT service on the front-end system. Through the connection path between the pair of processes, the requested MPI jobs can be successfully executed in grid environments with various clusters including private IP clusters. By simulations, we show that the performance of MPICH-GP reaches over 80% of the performance of MPICH-G2, and over 95% in ease of using RANK management method.

  • Traditional watermarking technologies are symmetric method which embedding and detection keys are same. Although the symmetric watermarking method is easy to detect the watermark, this method has weakness against to malicious attacks to remove or modify the watermark information when the symmetric key is disclosure. Recently, the asymmetric watermarking method that has different keys to embed and detect is watched several researchers as a next generation watermarking technology. In this paper, we have expanded search space of secret key using the solution set of linear simultaneous equations. Secret key is generated by secure linear transformation method to prevent of guessing secret key from public key, and the correlation value between secret key and public key is high. At theresults, the multi bits information can be embedded and high correlation value was detected after JPEG compression.

  • Recursive DNS is configured as primary or secondary DNS on user PC and performs domain name resolution corresponding user's DNS query. At present, the amount of DNS traffic is occupied high rate in the total internet traffic and the internet traffic would be increased by failure of IPv6 DNS queries and responses as IPv6 transition environment. Also, existing Recursive DNS service mechanisms is unstable on malicious user's attack same as DoS/DDoS Attack and isn't provide to user trust DNS service fail-over. In this paper, we propose IPv6 Recursive DNS service mechanisms for based on anycast for improving stability. It is that fail-over Recursive DNS is configured IPv6 Anycast address for primary Recursive DNS's foil-over. this mechanisms increases reliability and resiliency to DoS/DDoS attacks and reduces query latency and helps minimize DNS traffic as inducing IPv6 address.

  • Meltdown and Spectre are vulnerabilities that exploit out-of-order execution and speculative execution techniques to read memory regions that are not accessible with user privileges. OS patches were released to prevent this attack, but older systems without appropriate patches are still vulnerable. Currently, there are some research to detect Meltdown and Spectre attacks, but most of them proposed dynamic analysis methods. Therefore, this paper proposes a binary signature that can be used to detect Meltdown and Spectre malware without executing them. For this, we collected 13 malicious codes from GitHub and performed binary pattern analysis. Based on this, we proposed a static detection method for Meltdown and Spectre malware. Our results showed that the method identified all the 19 attack files with 0.94% false positive rate when applied to 2,317 normal files.

  • A new method of Semi-fragile image watermarking which ensures the integrity of the contents of digital image is presented. Proposed watermarking scheme embeds watermark in the form of quantization noise on the wavelet transform coefficients in a specific mid frequency subbands selected from a wavelet packet decomposition based on energy distribution of wavelet transform coefficients. By controlling the strength of embedded watermark using HVS (Human Visual System) characteristic, it is imperceptible by a human viewer while robust against non-malicious attack such as compression for storage and/or transmission. When an attack is applied on the original image, it is highly probable that wavelet transform coefficients not only at the exact attack positions but also the neighboring ones are modified. Therefore, proposed authentication method utilizes whether both current coefficient and its neighbors are damaged. together. So it can efficiently detect and accurately localize attacks inflicted on the content of original image. Decision threshold for authentication can be user controlled for different application areas as needed.
