  • Recently, the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has been increasing exponentially. These IoT devices are directly connected to the internet to exchange information. IoT devices are becoming smaller and lighter. However, security measures are not taken in a timely manner compared to the security vulnerabilities of IoT devices. This is often the case when the security patches cannot be applied to the device because the security patches are not adequately applied or there is no patch function. Thus, security vulnerabilities continue to exist, and security incidents continue to increase. In this study, we classified and analyzed the most common security vulnerabilities for IoT devices and identify the essential vulnerabilities of IoT devices that should be considered for security when producing IoT devices. This paper will contribute to reducing the occurrence of security vulnerabilities in companies that produce IoT devices. Additionally, companies can identify vulnerabilities that frequently occur in IoT devices and take preemptive measures.

  • String matching is one of the key algorithms in network security and many areas could be benefit from a faster string matching algorithm. Based on the most efficient string matching algorithm in sual applications, the Boyer-Moore (BM) algorithm, a novel algorithm called RQS is proposed. RQS utilizes an improved bad character heuristic to achieve bigger shift value area and an enhanced good suffix heuristic to dramatically improve the worst case performance. The two heuristics combined with a novel determinant condition to switch between them enable RQS achieve a higher performance than BM both under normal and worst case situation. The experimental results reveal that RQS appears efficient than BM many times in worst case, and the longer the pattern, the bigger the performance improvement. The performance of RQS is 7.57~36.34% higher than BM in English text searching, 16.26~26.18% higher than BM in uniformly random text searching, and 9.77% higher than BM in the real world Snort pattern set searching.

  • The purpose of this study is to explore the underlying causes of the development of private security in the United States. These include the increasing crime rates and fear of crime, the poor performance of public policing, the decentralization of political authority, the increase of mass private property, economic growth and increase of personal income, commodification of security, insurance companies' demand for tighter security and fear of litigation, and historical events such as World War I & II. Based on the findings of this study, it is suggested that no single factor would account for the growth of private security in the United States. In other words, the rapid growth of private security in the United States should be attributed to the interrelated influences of the factors given above. Finally, it might be the contribution of this study that the future development of private security in Korea would be guided by understanding the case of the United States because of the similarities of the developmental process in private security industry of two countries.

  • Security threats are increasing with interest due to the mass spread of smart devices, and vulnerabilities in developed applications are being exposed while mobile malicious codes are spreading. The government and companies provide various applications for the public, and for reliability and security of applications, security checks are required during application development. In this paper, among the security threats that can occur in the mobile service environment, we set up the vulnerability analysis items to respond to security threats when developing Android-based applications. Based on the set analysis items, vulnerability analysis was performed by examining three applications of public institutions and private companies currently operating as mobile applications. As a result of application security checks used by three public institutions and companies, authority management and open module stability management were well managed. However, it was confirmed that many security vulnerabilities were found in input value verification, outside transmit data management, and data management. It is believed that it will contribute to improving the safety of mobile applications through the case of vulnerability analysis for Android application security.

  • The paper provides the approach to apply formal methods to the development and certification criteria of defense safety/security-critical software. RTCA/DO-178B is recognized as a do facto international standard for airworthiness certification but lack of concrete activities and vagueness of verification/certification criteria have been criticized. In the case of MoD Def Stan 00-55, the guidelines based on formal methods are concrete enough and structured for the defense safety-related software. Also Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level includes the strict requirements of formal methods for the certification of high-level security software. By analyzing the problems of DO-178B and comparing it with MoD Def Stan 00-55 and Common Criteria, we identity the important issues In safety and security space. And considering the identified issues, we carry out merging of DO-178B and CC EAL7 on the basis of formal methods. Also the actual case studies for formal methods applications are shown with respect to the verification and reuse of software components.

  • In case of security of IoT-based areas in ICBM industry, the anxiety about safety goes to extremes in public and national safety area, so that the demand for security service related to disaster/safety management is increasing. Like this, as a security service for safety, CCTVs are installed/operated for the purpose of maintenance of public order and crime prevention. Especially, as the recorded images are presented as crucial evidences of crimes, they are rapidly increasing. However, as adverse effects of CCTVs, it is highly possible to unintentionally leak personal information in the process of performing the original purpose, or to violate someone's privacy in case when such technologies are abused. Therefore, it would be necessary to have researches on the multilaterally-combined mechanism for the protection of image privacy.

  • Most of the previous proxy re-encryption schemes rely on the average-case hardness problems such as the integer factorization problems and the discrete logarithm problems. Therefore, they cannot guarantee its security under quantum analysis, since there exist quantum algorithms efficiently solving the factorization and logarithm problems. In the paper, we propose the first proxy re-encryption scheme based on the hard worst-case lattice problems. Our scheme has many useful properties as follows: Unidirectional, collusion-resistant, noninteractive, proxy invisible, key optimal, and nontransitive.We also provided the formal security proof of the proposed scheme in the random oracle model.

  • Many services have been developed that are based on smart devices, and security between devices is emphasized. A beacon on the current IoT(Internet of Things) services has been utilized in the commercial field and is being applied to the services of the home IoT. On the other hand, the beacon is weak to security using Bluetooth-based services. Therefore, it is important to strengthen the security of the beacon. This paper proposes a dual security technique that can enhance the security of beacon-based services. The dual security architecture and security process is proposed based on beacon and authentication service. In addition, mobile application was developed and validated based on the beacon for proving the suitability of the proposed technique. The experimental method for verification are the authentication failure case, such as 1st authentication fail, and authentication success case, such as 1st authentication success and 2nd authentication success. The components of the verification experiments consists of two beacons (matched with Beacon ID, mismatched with Beacon ID), one mobile device and authentication application. This was tested to verify the compatibility of the dual security architecture and 1st/2nd authentication process.
