  • In this paper, we study the verification techniques for OS integrity that can be more fatal than applications in case of security issues. The dissemination of smartphones is rapidly progressing and there are many similarities of smartphones and PCs in terms of security risks. Recently, in mobile network environment, there is a trend of increasing damages and now, there are active researches on a system that can comprehensively respond to this. As a way to prevent these risks, integrity checking method on operation system is being researched. As most integrity checking algorithms are classified by verification from the levels before booting the OS and at the time of passing on the control to the OS, in which, there are minor differences in the definitions of integrity checking or its methods. In this paper, we suggests the integrity verification technique of OS using a boot loader and a physically independent storing device in the mobile device.

  • Unlike conventional researches, we are able to i) compare the fuzzy logic based BBA with non-fuzzy BBA for verifying the effective performance of the proposed fuzzy logic application ii) dynamically respond to the intrusion using BBA whereas the previous IDS was responding statically and iii) expect that this would be a cornerstone for more practical application researches (analyzing vulnerability and examining countermeasures, etc.) of security simulation. Several simulation tests performed on the targer network will illustrate our techniques. And this paper applies fuzzy logic to reduce the false negative that is one of the main problems of IDS. Intrusion detection is complicated decision-making process, which generally involves enormous factors about the monitored system. Fuzzy evaluation component model, which is a decision agent in the distributed IDS, can consider various factors based on fuzzy logic when an intrusion behavior is detected. The performance obtained from the coordination of intrusion detection agent with fuzzy logic is compared against the corresponding non fuzzy type intrusion detection agent. The results of these comparisons allow us to evaluate a relevant improvement on the fuzzy logic based BBA.

  • To provide high-quality services, national public institutions and companies have provided information and materials over the internet network. However, a risk of malware infection between transmission and reception of data leads to exposure to various security threats. For this reason, national institutions have proceeded with projects for network separation since 2008, and data linkage has been made using network connection storage through network separation technologies, along with physical network separation. However, the network connection storage has caused waste of resources and problems with data management due to the presence of the same data in internal network storage and external network storage. In this regard, this study proposes a method to connect internal and external network data using NAS storage as a way to overcome the limitations of physical network separation, and attempts to verify the priority of items for the optimization of network separation by means of AHP techniques.

  • Esmbedded devices such as smart cards and electronic passports highly demand security of sensitive data. So, the secure implementation of the cryptographic system against various side-channel attacks are becoming more important. In particular, the fault injection attack is one of the threats to the cryptosystem and can destroy the whole system only with single pair of the plain and cipher texts. Therefore, the implementors must consider seriously the attack. Several techniques for preventing fault injection attacks were introduced to a variety of the cryptosystem, But the countermeasures are still inefficient to be applied to the classical RSA cryptosystem. This paper introduces an efficient countermeasure against the fault injection attack for the classical RSA cryptosystem, which is based on the famous Fermat's theorem. The proposed countermeasure has the advantage that it has less computational overhead, compared with the previous countermeasures.

  • The conventional object tracking techniques using PTZ camera detects object movements by analyzing acquired image. However, this technique requires expensive hardware devices to perform a complex image processing. And it is occasionally hard to detect object movements, if an acquired image is low quality or image acquisition is impossible. In this paper, we proposes a smart security CCTV system applying to wireless sensor network technique based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard to overcome the problems of conventional object tracking technique, which enables to track suspicious objects by detecting object movements and GPS data in sensor node. This system enables an efficient control of PTZ camera to observe a wide area, decreasing image processing complexity. Also, wireless sensor network is implemented using mesh networks to increase the efficiency of installing sensor node.

  • The Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a block cipher that encrypts a 64 bit block of plaintext into a 64 bit block of ciphertext. The DES has been a worldwide standard for 20 years since it was adopted in 1976. strong. But, due to the rapid development of hardware techniques and cryptanalysis, the DES with 64-bit key is considered to be not secure at the present time. Therefore it became necessary to increase the security of DES. The NG-DES(New Generation DES)[1] is an encryption system which upgrades the encryption security of DES by the key extension and the usage of non-linear f function. It extends not only the size of plaintext and ciphertext to 128 bit but also the Fiestel structure used in each round. This structure has a weak point that the change of each bit of plaintext does not affect all bits of ciphertext simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a modified Fiestel structure of DES and thus increased confusion and diffusion by effectively cross-connecting between outputs in a round and inputs in next round.

  • With the widely applications of tactical radio networks, end-to-end secure speech communication in the heterogeneous network has become a very significant security issue. High-grade end-to-end speech security can be achieved using encryption algorithms at user ends. However, the use of encryption techniques results in a problem that encrypted speech data cannot be directly transmitted over heterogeneous tactical networks. That is, the decryption and re-encryption process must be fulfilled at the gateway between two different networks. In this paper, in order to solve this problem and to achieve optimal end-to-end speech security for heterogeneous tactical environments, we propose a novel mechanism for end-to-end secure speech transmission over ultra high frequency (UHF) and public switched telephone network (PSTN) and evaluate against the performance of conventional mechanism. Our proposed mechanism has advantages of no decryption and re-encryption at the gateway, no processing delay at the gateway, and good inter-operability over UHF and PSTN.

  • Recently, developments on quantum computers and cloud computing have been actively conducted. Quantum computers have been known to show tremendous computing power and Cloud computing has high accessibility for information and low cost. For quantum computers, quantum error correcting codes are essential. Similarly, cloud computing requires homomorphic encryption to ensure security. These two techniques, which are used for different purposes, are based on similar assumptions. Then, there have been studies to construct quantum homomorphic encryption based on quantum error correction code. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme which can process the homomorphic encryption like quantum computation by modifying the QECCs. Conventional quantum homomorphic encryption schemes based on quantum error correcting codes does not have error correction capability. However, using the proposed scheme, it is possible to process the homomorphic encryption like quantum computation and correct the errors during computation and storage of quantum information unlike the homogeneous encryption scheme with quantum error correction code.

  • Data de-identification is the one of the technique that preserves individual data privacy and provides useful information of data to the analyst. However, original de-identification techniques like k-anonymity have vulnerabilities to background knowledge attacks. On the contrary, differential privacy has a lot of researches and studies within several years because it has both strong privacy preserving and useful utility. In this paper, we analyze various models based on differential privacy and formalize a differentially private model on financial data. As a result, we can formalize a differentially private model on financial data and show that it has both security guarantees and good usefulness.
