  • Distributed Denial of Service attack is a form of denial of service attacks, the attacker to attack a place in a number of points of attack by a wide variety of forms over the network to perform a service on a point attack . Do not use a specific server or client attempts to make a connection to many services available that prevents this attack and so normally used . Corresponding methods of DDoS attacks has a corresponding managerial aspects and technical aspects of the proposed two.

  • Conventional cryptographic algorithms are not sufficient to protect secret keys and data in white-box environments, where an attacker has full visibility and control over an executing software code. For this reason, cryptographic algorithms have been redesigned to be resistant to white-box attacks. The first white-box AES (WB-AES) implementation was thought to provide reliable security in that all brute force attacks are infeasible even in white-box environments; however, this proved not to be the case. In particular, Billet and others presented a cryptanalysis of WB-AES with 230 time complexity, and Michiels and others generalized it for all substitution-linear transformation ciphers. Recently, a collision-based cryptanalysis was also reported. In this paper, we revisit Chow and others's first WB-AES implementation and present a conditional re-encoding method for cryptanalysis protection. The experimental results show that there is approximately a 57% increase in the memory requirement and a 20% increase in execution speed.

  • 금융과 IT의 융합을 의미하는 핀테크(Fintech) 열풍이 전세계적으로 뜨겁게 불고 있다. 핀테크를 통해 신기술들이 금융 산업 전반에 융합되면서 새로운 형태의 금융서비스가 등장하고 기존의 금융 시스템들이 가져왔던 문제점들을 개선하는데 기여할 것으로 보인다. 하지만 핀테크 산업 활성화를 위한 지속적 규제 완화와 이용자 편의성을 위한 각종 절차의 간소화 그리고 채널 서비스 기술간의 융복합이 일어나는 환경에서 제공되는 핀테크 서비스의 안전성에 대해 우려가 있다. 핀테크 시대에 정보보안은 성장의 인프라이며 금융상품을 선택하는 중요한 기준이 될 것이므로 보안리스크의 정량화와 단계별 통제 방안을 수립하고 사용자 인증, 결제정보 보안, API(Application Programming Interface) 보안 등 필요한 보안요소를 사업모델에 맞게 적용함으로써 편리성과 보안성을 함께 확보할 수 있어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 정보보안 관점에서 핀테크의 서비스의 특징과 보안 취약점을 분석하고 관련 위험을 줄이기 위한 대응방안을 모색해 보았다.

  • Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) have become one of the active areas of research, standardization, and development because they have tremendous potentials to improve vehicle and road safety, traffic efficiency, and convenience as well as comfort to both drivers and passengers. However, message trustfulness is a challenge because the propagation of false message by malicious vehicles induces unreliable and ineffectiveness of VANETs, Therefore, we need a reliable reputation method to ensure message trustfulness. In this paper, we consider a vulnerability against the Sybil attack of the previous reputation systems based on blockchain and suggest a new reputation system which resists against Sybil attack on the previous system. We propose an initial authentication process as a countermeasure against a Sybil attack and provide a reliable reputation with a cooperative message delivery to cope with message omission. In addition, we use Homomorphic Commitment to protect the privacy breaches in VANETs environment.

  • IAs smart device penetration rate is more than 90%, mobile transaction ratio using smart device is increasing. Smart contracts are used in various areas of real life including smart trading. By applying smart contracts to the platform for smart transactions through block-chain technology, the threat of hacking or forgery can be reduced. However, various threats to devices in smart transactions can pose a threat to the use of block chain Etherium, an important element in privilege and personal information management. Smart contract used in block chain Ethereum includes important information or transaction details of users. Therefore, in case of an attack of privilege elevation, it is very likely to exploit transaction details or forge or tamper with personal information inquiry. In this paper, we propose a detection and countermeasure method for privilege escalation attack, which is especially important for block chain for secure smart transaction using block chain Ethereum. When comparing the results of this study with the results of similar applications and researches, we showed about 12~13% improvement in performance and suggested the future countermeasures through packet analysis.

  • Many severe earthquakes have occurred along the main fault lines in the world. In recent years, there has been a high incidence of small- and large-scale earthquakes in our country. These occurrences of earthquakes have become increasingly serious, owing to a degrading earth environment. An earthquake, in general, causes far more serious damages like disruptions in electricity or gas facilities, and fire disasters from its annexed effects than by its vibrations or the shock itself. In this paper, we present a countermeasure and its necessity in safeguarding against fire disasters in regional heritage villages such as "Asan Oeam," "Jeonju Hanok," and "Andong Hahoe." A more systematic and effective strategy for prevention systems against severe fire disasters is proposed after performing various related investigations and analyses of existing domestic and international systems. We investigated the existing fire security systems and their historical records with the tendency of earthquake occurrences in these three folk villages. In this proposal, we present a strategic approach for safeguarding against fire damages in our regional heritage villages derived from ICT (information communication technology)-based DPD (disaster prevention design), after examining the laws and regulations of fire-prevention strategies in Japan, America, and Europe.

  • Small and medium-sized companies lack countermeasures to secure the safety of a information system. In this circumstance, they have difficulties regarding the damage to their images and legal losses, when the information is leaked. This paper examines the information leakage of the system and hacking methods including APT attacks. Especially, APT attack, Advanced Persistent Threats, means that a hacker sneaks into a target and has a latency period of time and skims all the information related to the target, and acts in the backstage and neutralize the security services without leaving traces. Because he attacks the target covering up his traces not to reveal them, the victim remains unnoticed, which increases the damage. This study examines attack methods and the process of them and seeks a countermeasure.

  • As listed as one of the most important requirements for Post-Quantum Cryptography standardization process by National Institute of Standards and Technology, the resistance to various side-channel attacks is considered very critical in deploying cryptosystems in practice. In fact, cryptosystems can easily be broken by side-channel attacks, even though they are considered to be secure in the mathematical point of view. The timing attack(TA) and the simple power analysis attack(SPA) are such side-channel attack methods which can reveal sensitive information by analyzing the timing behavior or the power consumption pattern of cryptographic operations. Thus, appropriate measures against such attacks must carefully be considered in the early stage of cryptosystem's implementation process. The Montgomery multiplier is a commonly used and classical gadget in implementing big-number-based cryptosystems including RSA and ECC. And, as recently proposed as an alternative of building blocks for implementing post quantum cryptography such as lattice-based cryptography, the big-number multiplier including the Montgomery multiplier still plays a role in modern cryptography. However, in spite of its effectiveness and wide-adoption, the multiplier is known to be vulnerable to TA and SPA. And this paper proposes a new countermeasure for the Montgomery multiplier against TA and SPA. Briefly speaking, the new measure first represents a multiplication operand without 0 digits, so the resulting multiplication operation behaves in a very regular manner. Also, the new algorithm removes the extra final reduction (which is intrinsic to the modular multiplication) to make the resulting multiplier more timing-independent. Consequently, the resulting multiplier operates in constant time so that it totally removes any TA and SPA vulnerabilities. Since the proposed method can process multi bits at a time, implementers can also trade-off the performance with the resource usage to get desirable implementation characteristics.
