In mobile Internet banking service through wireless local area network, security is a most important factor to consider. We describe the development of mobile banking service using Personal Digatal Assistant (PDA). In order to increase the strength of encryption, we adopted hybrid approach where both of the public key algorithm and the secret key algorithm are used during the transaction among PDA, banking server and authentication server.

Over recent years there has been considerable growth in interest in the use of biometric systems for personal authentication. Biometrics is a field of technology which has been and is being used in the identification of individuals based on some physical attribute. By using biometrics, authentication is directly linked to the person, rather than their token or password. Biometric authentication is a type of system that relies on the unique biological characteristics of individuals to verify identity for secure access to electronic systems. In 2013, Althobati et al. proposed an efficient remote user authentication protocol using biometric information. However, we uncovered Althobati et al.'s protocol does not guarantee its main security goal of mutual authentication. We showed this by mounting threat of data integrity and bypassing the gateway node attack on Althobati et al.'s protocol. In this paper, we propose an improved scheme to overcome these security weaknesses by storing secret data in device. In addition, our proposed scheme should provide not only security, but also efficiency since sensors in WSN(Wireless Sensor Networks) operate with resource constraints such as limited power, computation, and storage space.

Nespot provides a convenient wireless internet connection service. The existing IEEE 802.1X EAP-MD5 authentication mechanism can be achieved based on ID/password information for a wireless connection. The Nespot system offers an advanced accounting and authorization procedure for providing wireless user authentication mechanism. However, many problems were found on the existing Nespot EAP-MD5 mechanism such as a ill value exposure, a leakage of personal information on wireless authentication procedure and a weakness on Nespot mutual authentication mechanism. Therefore, we analyzed the limitation of the existing IEEE 802.1X EAP-MD5 certification system, and suggested a one-time session key based authentication mechanism. And then we offered a simplified encryption function on the Nespot certification process for providing secure mutual authentication process.

Most Websites perform login process for authentication. But simple features like ID and Password have no trust because most people worry about appropriation. So the youth can easily access illegal media sites using other's ID and Password. Therefore this paper examine features be adaptable to authentication system, and propose a design of authentication system using multiple features. A proposed authentication system has two categories, such as low-level and high-level method. Low-level method consists of grant of authentication number through mobile phone from server and certificate from authority. High-level method combines ID/Password and features of fingerprint, character, voice, face recognition systems. For this, this paper surveys six recognition systems such as fingerprint, face, iris, character, vein, voice recognition system. Among these, fingerprint, character, voice, face recognition systems can be easily implemented in personal computer with low cost accessories. Usage of multiple features can improve reliability of authentication.

As telecommunication technologies in telemedicine services are developed, the expeditious development of wireless and mobile networks has stimulated wide applications of mobile electronic healthcare systems. However, security is an essential system requirement since many patients have privacy concerns when it comes to releasing their personal information over the open wireless channels. Due to the invisible feature of mobile signals, hackers have easier access to hospital networks than wired network systems. This may result in several security incidents unless security protocols are well prepared. In this paper, we analyzed authentication and authorization procedures for healthcare system architecture to apply secure M-health systems in the hospital environment. From the analyses, we estimate optimal requirements as a countermeasure to its vulnerabilities.

During a time when cellular systems are being deployed in massive scale worldwide, international roaming is becoming increasingly important. This paper presents UIM (User Identification Module) for mobility support, authentication, and service portability between different mobile systems. We also introduce network model based on PASM(Portable Authentication and Mobility Service Machine) which will support signaling protocol and user information conversions with database for roaming between different mobile networks. Stored data types and elements in UIM, logical data structure and configuration, and registration procedures are described here in the case of DCN (Digital CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) Network System) and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications).

There is an advantage that RFID system is better than previous bar code system in storage ability and noncontact property. But, everyone can easily receive the transmitting information by using RF signal. So, there is a problem that system security and personal privacy are threatened. In this paper, I propose RFID system that is secure against attacks like eavesdropping, replay, spoofing and location tracking and can efficiently provide mutual authentication services between reader and tag. The proposed RFID system can be used in various sections of ubiquitous computing environment.

Applications of Internet of Things (IoT) supply various conveniences, however unsolved security problems such as personal privacy, data manipulation cause harm to persons, even nations and an limit the applicable areas of Internet of IoT technology. Therefore, study about secure and efficient security system on IoT are required. This paper proposes ID-based remote user authentication scheme in IoT environments. Proposed scheme provides untraceability of users by using different pseudonym identities in every session and reduces the number of variables. Our proposal is secure against inside attack, smart card loss attack, user impersonation attack, server masquerading attack, online/offline password guessing attack, and so on. Therefore, this can be applied to the lightweight IoT environments.

Recently use of RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) tends to be rapidly increased and will be also extended throughout the whole life. Using radio-frequency data can be recognized automatically in the RFID system is vulnerable to personal information protection or security. And passive tags have a hardware problem is the limit for applying cryptographic. This paper presents an authentication protocol using AES and Nounce. After completing mutual authentication server to access and strengthen security vulnerability to the use of the Nounce, because safety in denial of service attacks.

Security is a primary concern in group communication, and secure authentication is essential to establishing a secure group communication. Most conventional authentications consist of knowledge-based and token-based methods. One of the token-based methods is a X.509 certificate, which is used under a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI); it is the most well-known authentication system in a distributed network environment. However, it has a well-known weakness, which only proves the belonging of a certificate. PKI cannot assure identity of a person. The conventional knowledge-based and token-based methods do not really provide positive personal identification because they rely on surrogate representations of the person's identity. Therefore, I propose a secure X.509 certificate with biometric information to assure the identity of the person who uses the X.509 certificate in a distributed computing environment.
