Authentication protocols for multi-server architectures have gained momentum in recent times due to advancements in computing technologies and associated constraints. Lu et al. recently proposed a biometrics and smartcards-based authentication scheme for multi-server environment. The careful analysis of this paper demonstrates Lu et al.'s protocol is susceptible to user impersonation attacks and comprises insufficient data. In addition, this paper proposes an improved authentication with key-agreement protocol for multi-server architecture based on biometrics and smartcards. The formal security of the proposed protocol is verified using the widely accepted AVISPA (Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications) tool to ensure that our protocol can withstand active and passive attacks. The formal and informal security analysis, and performance analysis sections determines that our protocol is robust and efficient compared to Lu et al.'s protocol and existing similar protocols.

In these days, security threat is ever increasing as computer systems and networking is everywhere. This paper is on the development of security scanner using search engine, with which site managers can easily check security vulnerability on their systems. Our security server automatically collects security-related information on the Internet, and indexes them in the database. To check the vulnerability of a customer server, the client system collects various system-specific information, and sends necessary queries to our security server for vulnerability checking. Up-to-date and site-specific vulnerability information is retrieved through the viewer, which allows the customer effectively to check and respond to security threat on client systems.

This research develops an algorithm using image synthesis for a server to authenticate users and implements it. The server creates cards with random dots for users and distribute them to users. The server also manages information of the cards distributed to users. When there is an authentication request from a user, the server creates a server card based on information of the user' s card in real time and send it to the user. Different server card is generated for each authentication. Thus, the server card plays a role of one-time password challenge. The user overlaps his/her card with the server card and read an image(eg. a number with four digits) made up from them and inputs the image to the system. This is the authentication process. Keeping security level high, this paper proposes a technique to generate the image clearly and implements it.

Recently, the smart devices has been possessed by a large majority of the adult, and offered various personalization services. This paper proposed the lightweight Intelligent Image Security System that notice the existence of any intruder in real time at the place of requiring the security by using smart device. The proposed image security system recognized whether or not intruder exists using the difference frame on the basis of Integral Image and the dynamic background updating algorithms. The intrusion notification is achieved by using the GCM push server that send massages in the application unit of user mobile device, and the SMTP mail server which is use of e-mail standard protocol. In case of the occurrence of intruder, GCM push server send an push-massage by the private mobile device, and SMTP mail server send the intruder's photograph and intrusion time. By the convergence of the various image processing algorithms and the performance of smart device, The proposed image security system can be applied to the various Intelligent Image Security field.

This study introduces server-side security-oriented framework for smart financial service. Most of domestic financial institutions providing e-banking services have employed server-side framework which implement service-oriented architecture. Because such architecture accommodates business and security requirements at the same time, institutions are struggling to cope with the security incidents efficiently. The thesis suggests that separating security areas from business areas in the frameworks makes users to be able to apply security policies in real time without considering how these policies may affect business transactions. Security-oriented frameworks support rapid and effective countermeasures against security threats. Furthermore, plans to avoid significant changes on existing system when institutions implement these frameworks are discussed in the report.

It becomes common to use computers to control electronic devices and security facilities in newly constructed buildings and house. There are many home application devices in the market which can be controlled by computers. But they are expensive and managed by specialized companies. This paper is focused on personal computers which are available in most homes and can be used to control home electronic appliances and home security facilities. We implemented a home automation server based on Linux. The standard parallel port of personal computer is used to connect sensors and actuators. Therefore, the cost of the server is very low. Moreover, the server is connected to Internet and anywhere we can control and monitor the home security facilities and home automation systems.

Many organizations need to comply with ISMS-P for information systems and personal information management for ISMS-P certification. Organizations should safeguard vulnerablities to information systems. However, as the kinds of information systems are diversified and the number of information systems increases, management of such vulnerabilities manually accompanies with many difficulties. SCAP is a protocol to manage the vulnerabilities of information system automatically with security standards. In this paper, for the introduction of SCAP in domestic domains we verify the applicability of server-oriented system which is one of ISMS-P certification targets. For SCAP applicability, For obtaining this goal, we analyze the structures and functions of SCAP. Then we propose schemes to check vulnerabilities of the server-oriented system. Finally, we implement the proposed schemes with SCAP to show the applicability of SCAP for verifying vulnerabilities of the server-oriented system.

If existing system need to expand security part, the security was established after paying much cost, processing of complicated installation and being patient with inconvenience at user's view because of closed structure. In this thesis, those defects could be overcome by using open security tools and constructing security server, which is firewall of 'bastion' form including proxy server, certification server and so on. Also each security object host comes to decide acceptance or denial where each packet comes from, then determines security level each hosts. Precisely it is possible choosing the packets from bastion host or following at the other policies. Although an intruder enter into inside directly, it is constructed safely because encryption algorithm is applied at communication with security object host. This thesis suggests more flexible, independent and open security system, which improves existing security through systematic linkage between system security and network security.

In this paper, I have implemented the security system using shell script that periodically checking the security elements of unix system for security it transmit to a monitoring server and monitoring many clients. Agent of client executing by crontab scheduler, Environment of server to receive data use restricted TFTP in SunOS. And then, Because of using shell script, apply shell to system with flexible, control performance, and can meet on a sudden situation.
