  • A Certification Authority issues X.509 public key certificates to bind a public key to a subject. The subject is specified through one or more subject names in the 'subject' or 'subjectAltName' fields of a certificate. In reality, however, there are individuals that have the same or similar names. This ambiguity can be resolved by including a 'permanent identifier' in all certificates issued to the same subject, which is unique across multiple CAs. But, a person's unique identifier is regarded as a sensitive personal data. Such an identifier cannot simply be included as part of the subject field, since its disclosure may lead to misuse. We present a new method for secure and accurate user authentication through the PEPSI included in the standard certificate extension of a X.509 certificate. The PEPSI can be served not only for user authentication but also for the user anonymity without divulging personal information.

  • Due to advances in DNA sequencing technologies, its medical value continues to grow. However, once genome data leaked, it cannot be revoked, and disclosure of personal genome information impacts a large group of individuals. Therefore, secure techniques for managing genomic big data should be developed. We first propose a privacy-preserving inner product protocol for large data sets using the homomorphic encryption of Gentry et al., and then we introduce an efficient privacy-preserving DNA matching protocol based on the proposed protocol. Our efficient protocol satisfies the requirements of correctness, confidentiality, and privacy.

  • Exchanging personal health information(PHI) is an essential process of healthcare services using information and communication technology. But the process have the inherent risk of information disclosure, so the PHI should be protected to ensure the reliability of healthcare services. In this paper, we designed encryption module for wearable personal health devices(PHD). A main goal is to guarantee that the real-time encoded and transmitted PHI cannot be allowed to be read, revised and utilized without user's permission. To achieve this, encryption algorithms as DES and 3DES were implemented in modules operating in Telos Rev B(16bit RISC, 8Mhz). And the experiments were performed in order to evaluate the performance of encryption and decryption using vital-sign measured by PHD. As experimental results, an block encryption was measured the followings: DES required 1.802 ms and 3DES required 6.683 ms. Also, we verified the interoperability among heterogeneous devices by testing that the encrypted data in Telos could be decoded in other machines without errors. In conclusion, the encryption module is the method that a PHD user is given the powerful right to decide for authority of accessing his PHI, so it is expected to contribute the trusted healthcare service distribution.

  • Recently, rapid innovation of Smartphone is changing the paradigm of our daily life. Smartphone users, opinion experts more than 99 percent of the economically active population is using, it has reached the saturation past the early stages of formation. Smartphone is equipped with a general purpose OS possible the implementation of high performance environment similar level as a personal computer. Also, it is a mobile communication terminal scalable which can be removed or installed various applications. Such extensibility, it is possible to use different applications through the Apps store. In addition, it is also possible various services which are location based service. However, these services also benefit many but it also has a disadvantage of invasion of privacy and disclosure of personal information. In this research, we aim to analyze factors influencing on perceived value and risk in location based service of Smartphone. In addition, we aim to analyze the causal relationship with perceived value and risk in satisfaction and recommendation intention. This study suggests practical and theoretical implications based on the results.

  • Today, the world is evolving into a huge community that can communicate with real-time information sharing and communication based on the rapid advancement of scientific technology and information. Behind this information, the adverse effects of information assets, such as hacking, viruses, information assets, and unauthorized disclosure of information assets, are continually increasing as a serious social problem. Each time an infringement of the invasion and personal information leaks occur, many regulatory policies have been announced, including stricter regulations for protecting the privacy of the government and establishing comprehensive countermeasures. Also, companies are making various efforts to increase awareness of the importance of information security. Nevertheless, information security accidents like the leaks of industrial secrets are continuously occurring and the frequency is not lessening. In this thesis, I proposed a customized security policy methodology that supports users with various business circumstances and service and also enables them to respond to the security threats more confidently and effectively through not a monotonous and technical but user-centered security policy.

  • The amount of personal information collected by organizations and government agencies is continuously increasing. When a data collector publishes personal information for research and other purposes, individuals' sensitive information should not be revealed. On the other hand, published data is also required to provide accurate statistical information for analysis. k-Anonymity and ${\iota}$-diversity models are popular approaches for privacy preserving data publication. However, they are limited to static data release. After a dataset is updated with insertions and deletions, a data collector cannot safely release up-to-date information. Recently, the m-invariance model has been proposed to support re-publication of dynamic datasets. However, the m-invariant generalization can cause high information loss. In addition, if the adversary already obtained sensitive values of some individuals before accessing released information, the m-invariance leads to severe privacy disclosure. In this paper, we propose a novel technique for safely releasing dynamic datasets. The proposed technique offers a simple and effective method for handling inserted and deleted records without generalization. It also gives equivalent degree of privacy preservation to the m-invariance model.
