Although the cryptographic algorithms in IC chip such as smart card are secure against mathematical analysis attack, they are susceptible to side channel attacks in real implementation. In this paper, we analyze the security of smart card using a developed experimental tool which can perform power analysis attacks and fault insertion attacks. As a result, raw smart card implemented SEED and ARIA without any countermeasure is vulnerable against differential power analysis(DPA) attack. However, in fault attack about voltage and clock on RSA with CRT, the card is secure due to its physical countermeasures.

A cryptography for enforcing hierarchic groups in a system where hierarchy is represented by a partially ordered set was introduced by Akl et al. But the key generation algorithm of Akl et al. is infeasible when there is a large number of users. To overcome this shortage, in 1985, MacKinnon et al. proposed a paper containing a condition which prevents cooperative attacks and optimizes the assignment. In 2005, Kim et al. proposed the key management systems for using one-way hash function, RSA algorithm, poset dimension and Clifford semigroup in the context of modern cryptography, the key management system using Clifford semigroup of imaginary quadratic non-maximal orders. We, in this paper, show that Kim et al. cryptosystem is insecure in some reasons and propose a revised cryptosystem.

In this thesis, we suggest the contents transmission system applied by Encryption Module. It prevents illegal distribution and reproduction of contents and supplements the limitation of the exiting transmission systems during the transmission by providing the contents encoded by RSA encryption algorithm and XOR computation method through user-oriented browser. And at same time, it protects the copyright with typing the contents and user-oriented browser in one-to-one manner by way of using the browser to renew a encoding key as soon replay is completed.

In a methodological approach to improve the processing performance of modulo exponentiation which is the primary arithmetic in RSA crypto algorithm, we present a new RSA hardware architecture based on high-radix modulo multiplication and CRT(Chinese Remainder Theorem). By implementing the modulo multiplier using radix-16 arithmetic, we reduced the number of PE(Processing Element)s by quarter comparing to the binary arithmetic scheme. This leads to having the number of clock cycles and the delay of pipelining flip-flops be reduced by quarter respectively. Because the receiver knows p and q, factors of N, it is possible to apply the CRT to the decryption process. To use CRT, we made two s/2-bit multipliers operating in parallel at decryption, which accomplished 4 times faster performance than when not using the CRT. In encryption phase, the two s/2-bit multipliers can be connected to make a s-bit linear multiplier for the s-bit arithmetic operation. We limited the encryption exponent size up to 17-bit to maintain high speed, We implemented a linear array modulo multiplier by projecting horizontally the DG of Montgomery algorithm. The H/W proposed here performs encryption with 15Mbps bit-rate and decryption with 1.22Mbps, when estimated with reference to Samsung 0.5um CMOS Standard Cell Library, which is the fastest among the publications at present.

When the public key e and the composite number n=pq are disclosed but not the private key d in an asymmetric-key RSA, message decryption is carried out by obtaining ${\phi}(n)=(p-1)(q-1)=n+1-(p+q)$ and subsequently computing $d=e^{-1}(mod{\phi}(n))$. The most commonly used decryption algorithm is integer factorization of n/p=q or $a^2{\equiv}b^2$(mod n), a=(p+q)/2, b=(q-p)/2. But many of the RSA numbers remain unfactorable. This paper therefore applies baby-step giant-step discrete logarithm and $2^k$-ary modular exponentiation to directly obtain ${\phi}(n)$. The proposed algorithm performs a reverse baby-step and $2^k$-ary adult-step. As a results, it reduces the execution time of basic adult-step to $1/2^k$ times and the memory $m={\lceil}\sqrt{n}{\rceil}$ to l, $a^l$ > n, hence obtaining ${\phi}(n)$ by executing within l times.

Digital watermarking is a technique for the purpose of protecting the ownership of the image by embedding invisible watermarks in a digital imnge. To guarantee the security of the digital watermarking scheme for copyright protection, it is required to satisfy some requirements robustness and perceptual invisibility which provided by the location of embedded bits, the public watermarking algorithm, and the hidden use of the key, which can protect unauthorized accesses from illegal users. For this, in this paper we propose a new copyright watermarking scheme, which is based on one-way hash functions using RSA functions and modular operations. RSA functions are widely used in cryptographic systems. Our watermarking scheme is robust against LSB(Jeast significant bit) attacks and gamma corresction attack, and is also perceptually invisible. We demonstrate the characteristics of our proposed watermarking scheme through experiments.

In this paper, a new stream cipher algorithm based on the chaos theory is proposed and is applied to a Web security system. The Web security system is composed of three parts： certificate authority (CA), Web client, and Web server. The Web client and server system include a secure proxy client (SPC) and a secure management server (SMS), respectively, for data encryption and decryption between them. The certificate is implemented based on X.509 and the RSA public key algorithm is utilized for key creation and distribution to certify both the client and server. Once a connection is established between the client and server, outgoing and incoming data are encrypted and decrypted, respectively, using one of the three cipher algorithms： chaos, SEED, and DES. The proposed chaos algorithm outperforms the other two conventional algorithms in processing time and complexity. Thus, the developed Web security system can be widely used in electronic commerce (EC) and Internet banking.

Ad hoc networks enable efficient resource aggregation in decentralized manner, and are inherently scalable and fault-tolerant since they do not depend on any centralized authority. However, lack of a centralized authority prompts many security-related challenges. Moreover, the dynamic topology change in which network nodes frequently join and leave adds a further complication in designing effective and efficient security mechanism. Security services for ad hoc networks need to be provided in a scalable and fault-tolerant manner while allowing for membership change of network nodes. In this paper, we investigate distributed certification mechanisms using a threshold cryptography in a way that the functions of a CA(Certification Authority) are distributed into the network nodes themselves and certain number of nodes jointly issue public key certificates to future joining nodes. In the process, we summarize one interesting report [5] in which the recently proposed RSA-based ad hoc signature scheme, called URSA, contains unfortunate yet serious security flaws. We then propose new scheme by fixing their security flaws.
