In this paper, a VoIP-based voice secure telecommunication technology using the text-independent speaker authentication in the telematics environments is proposed. For the secure telecommunication, the sender's voice packets are encrypted by the public-key generated from the speaker's voice information and submitted to the receiver. It is constructed to resist against the man-in-the middle attack. At the receiver side, voice features extracted from the received voice packets are compared with the reference voice-key received from the sender side for the speaker authentication. To improve the accuracy of text-independent speaker authentication, Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM)-supervectors are applied to Support Vector Machine (SVM) kernel using Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and Mahalanobis distance (MD).

As the development of information telecommunication technology and thus the information sharing and opening is accelerated, If system is exposed to various threatener and the avrious security incident is rasing its head with social problem. As countermeasure, to protect safely and prepare in the attack for a system from a be latent security threat, various security systems are been using such as IDS, Firewall, VPN etc.. But, expertise or expert is required to handle security system. The module, implemented in this paper, is based on Windows XP, like Linux and Unix, and has effect integrity and non-repudiation for a file.

Preserving the integrity of the booting process is important. Recent rootkit attacks and subverting OS attacks prove that any post-OS security mechanism can be easily circumvented if the booting process is not properly controlled. Using an actual case as an example, the hacker of the Se-jong government office simply bypassed the user's password authentication by compromising the normal booting process. This paper analyzes existing pre-OS protection using secure boot and measured boot, and proposes another bootloader that overcomes the limitations. The proposed bootloader not only guarantees the integrity of all the pre-OS binaries, bootloaders, and kernel, it also makes explicit records of integrity in the booting process to the external TPM device, so that we can track modifications of BIOS configurations or unintended booting process modifications.

Recently, security incidents are growing rapidly in which internal employees let the drawing leak out to competitors or other countries. This type of security incidents has a characteristic that it occurs less frequently than other types of security incidents such as network or server security incident, but the damage is a lot more serious. The existing information security technologies to prevent internal information from being leaked out are only applicable to general documents(office documents, web pages and image files in which data are encrypted one by one). However, architectural drawings made up of collection of files with various formats(extensions) have problems with the process speed of en(de) cryption and accuracy, so the developments of security technologies by new methods are required. In this study, we design and develop a security technology based on work area with which users can protect the leakage of critical information in the kernel level while maintaining their work environment when they have to use sharing information that cannot be managed by the unit of file. As a result, we developed the "Virtual Secure Disk" which allows only authorized users and applications to have an access to drawings, and have verified its security by applying it to the actual company.

This paper reviews the current studies about the current secure OS, security module and SELinux, and suggests Linux access control module that uses the user discriminating authentication, security authority inheritance of subjects and objects, reference monitor and MAC class process and real-time audit trailing using DB. First, during the user authentication process, it distinguishes the access permission IP and separates the superuser(root)'s authority from that of the security manager by making the users input the security level and the protection category. Second, when the subjects have access to the objects through security authority inheritance of subjects and objects, the suggested system carries out the access control by comparing the security information of the subjects with that of the objects. Third, this system implements a Reference Monitor audit on every current events happening in the kernel. As it decides the access permission after checking the current MAC security attributes, it can block any malicious intrusion in advance. Fourth, through the real-time audit trailing system, it detects all activities in the operating system, records them in the database and offers the security manager with the related security audit data in real-time.

본 논문에서는 커널수준의 침입탐지를 위한 동적 침입탐지 규칙 변경 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 침입탐지 규칙은 규칙타입 프로토콜 타입, 패킷 헤더와 패킷 페이로드에 대한 검사를 수행하기 위한 규칙들로 세분화하여 LVR로 표현하고 이들 LVR이 계층적으로 구성된 IDRL로 관리한다. 침입탐지는 IDRL을 이용하여 수행하며, 규칙에 대한 변경은 변경된 규칙에 대한 LVR을 구성하고 LV를 이용한 포인터 변경을 이용하여 IDRL에 반영하는 방법이다. 제안하는 기법은 IDRL을 이용한 침입탐지와 탐지규칙의 변경을 IDRL에 최소한의 비용으로 수행하고, LVR을 이용하여 침입탐지 규칙을 디스크와 메모리에 동일한 형태로 저장 및 관리하여 탐지규칙 초기화 비용과 변경 비용을 최소화할 수 있다. 이를 통하여 보다 안전한 커널 수준에서의 네트워크 보안을 위한 효율적인 동적 침입탐지 규칙 변경을 지원할 수 있다는 장점을 가진다.

네트워크로 연결된 국가기관의 중요한 정보시스템에 대한 보안위협에 대해 기존의 침입차단/탐지시스템을 중심으로 하는 보안솔루션은 잠재적인 보안위협의 처리 한계와 우회하는 새로운 해킹기법 등의 발달로 인해 시스템의 정보보증을 위한 대응책이 떨어지고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 이에 대한 대안으로 TCSEC B5급(CC EAL5) 이상의 국가기관용 보안운영체제 개발의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 본 논문은 국가기관용 보안운영체제 개발을 위해 선행되어야 할 안전커널 요구사항에 관한 연구로 이를 위해 먼저 적용될 보안환경과 목적, TCSEC 요구사항, CC 기반 보호프로파일, CC 요구사항을 분석 적용하였다. 이를 기반으로 정보의 중요도에 따라 두개의 등급으로 분류된 국가기관에 적합한 안전커널 요구사항을 제안하고자 한다.

IOMMU is a hardware unit that is indispensable for DMA. Besides address translation and remapping, it also provides I/O virtual address space isolation among devices and memory access control on DMA transactions. However, currently commodity virtualization platforms lack of IOMMU virtualization, so that the virtual machines are vulnerable to DMA security threats. Previous works focus only on DMA security problem of directly assigned devices. Moreover, these solutions either introduce significant overhead or require modifications on the guest OS to optimize performance, and none can achieve high I/O efficiency and good compatibility with the guest OS simultaneously, which are both necessary for production environments. However, for simulated virtual devices the DMA security problem also exists, and previous works cannot solve this problem. The reason behind that is IOMMU circuits on the host do not work for this kind of devices as DMA operations of which are simulated by memory copy of CPU. Motivated by the above observations, we propose an IOMMU para-virtualization solution called PVIOMMU, which provides general functionalities especially DMA security guarantees for both directly assigned devices and simulated devices. The prototype of PVIOMMU is implemented in Qemu/KVM based on the virtio framework and can be dynamically loaded into guest kernel as a module, As a result, modifying and rebuilding guest kernel are not required. In addition, the device model of Qemu is revised to implement DMA access control by separating the device simulator from the address space of the guest virtual machine. Experimental evaluations on three kinds of network devices including Intel I210 (1Gbps), simulated E1000 (1Gbps) and IB ConnectX-3 (40Gbps) show that, PVIOMMU introduces little overhead on DMA transactions, and in general the network I/O performance is close to that in the native KVM implementation without IOMMU virtualization.

The development and distribution approach of applications is transitioning from a monolithic architecture to microservices and containerization, a lightweight virtualization technology, is becoming a core IT technology. However, unlike traditional virtual machines based on hypervisors, container technology does not provide concrete security boundaries as it shares the same kernel. According to various preceding studies, there are many security vulnerabilities in most container images that are currently shared. Accordingly, attackers may attempt exploitation by using security vulnerabilities, which may seriously affect the system environment. Therefore, in this study, we propose an efficient automated deployment pipeline design to prevent the distribution of container images with security vulnerabilities, aiming to provide a secure container environment. Through this approach, we can ensure a safe container environment.
