  • ZigBee based on the most vulnerable part of u-Healthcare system that uses the ZigBee communication is the wireless section. ZigBee communication sectors to identify vulnerabilities in this paper, we propose to compensate. ZigBee has been raised from the existing vulnerabilities organize and ZigBee also uses the 64bit address that uniquely identifies a vulnerability that was defined as exposure. And to prevent the exposure of a unique identifying address was used to address a temporary identification. ZigBee security services, the proposed system during the Network Key for encryption only use one mechanism of Residential Mode is used. Residential Mode on all nodes of the entire network because they use a common key, the key is stolen, your network's security system at a time are at risk of collapse. Therefore, in order to guard against these risks to the security policy Network Key updated periodically depending on the method used to. The proposed evaluation and comparative analysis of the system were exposed in the existing system can hide the address that uniquely identifies a public key Network Key also updated periodically, so that leaks can occur due to reduced risk.

  • The number of hosts connected to the Internet has increased dramatically, introducing the Domain Name System(DNS) in 1984. DNS is now an important key point for all users of the Internet by allowing them to use a convenient character address without memorizing a series of numbers of complex IP address. However, relative to the importance of DNS, there still exist many problems such as the authorization allocation issue, the disputes over public registration, security vulnerability such as DNS cache poisoning, DNS spoofing, man-in-the-middle attack, DNS amplification attack, and the need for many domain names in the age of hyper-connected networks. In this paper, to effectively improve these problems of existing DNS, we proposed a method of implementing DNS using distributed ledger technology, blockchain, and implemented using a Ethereum-based platform. In addition, the qualitative analysis performance comparative evaluation of the existing domain name registration and domain name server was conducted, and conducted security assessments on the proposed system to improve security problem of existing DNS. In conclusion, it was shown that DNS services could be provided high security and high efficiently using blockchain.

  • Power Line Communication (PLC) is a system for carrying data on a conductor used for electric power transmission. Recently, PLC has received much attention due to connection efficiency and possibility of extension. It can be used for not only alternative communication, in which communication line is not sufficient, but also for communication between home appliances. Korea Electronic Power Cooperation (KEPCO) is constructing the system, which automatically collects values of power consumption of every household. Due to the randomness and complicated physical characteristics of PLC protocol (KS X4600-1), it has been believed that the current PLC is secure in the sense that it is hard that an attacker guesses or modifies the value of power consumption. However, we show that the randomness of the protocol is closely related to state of the communication line and thus anyone can easily guess the randomness by checking the state of the communication line. In order to analyze the security of PLC, we study the protocol in detail and show some vulnerability. In addition, we suggest that PLC needs more secure protocol on higher layers. We expect that the study of PLC help in designing more secure protocol as well.

  • This paper addresses a problem of violating the member accessibility of a class in C++, which is not detected as an error by existing C++ compilers. The member access specifiers can be used to specify member accessibility. The C++ uses a private or protected specifier for specifying the members which cannot be accessed from outside of an object. However, the private or protected members can be accessed from outside of that object by the pointer arithmetic in C++. We show some violating examples that cannot be detected by existing C++ compilers. The contribution of this paper is to discover and define the new problem of the member accessibility.

  • The IEEE 802.1x can be using various user authentication mechanisms: One-Time Password, Certificate-Based TLS, Challenge/Response and Keberos through EAP(Extended Authentication Protocol). But, IEEE 802.1x also has vulnerabilities about the DoS, the session hijacking and the Man in the Middle attack due to the absence of AP authentication. In this paper, we propose a WLAN secure system which can offer a safety secure communication and a user authentications by intensified the vulnerability of spoofing and DoS attacks. The suppose system offers a safe secure communication because it offers sending message of integrity service and also it prevents DoS attack at authentication initial phase.

  • User web service is increasing by development of internet technology. Quantity of encrypted data that transmitted through the network are increasing by development of encipherment technology. We have many problems; it is caused by technical development and service increase of user requests. It is like that, we have reliability of contents and illegality copy problem of internet contents in web application system. It is contents protection skills in web that encipherment technology, authentication and digital signature. We need message encoding and secret key for solve vulnerability of encipherment in web application system. In this paper, we propose a distributed secure system that can data confidentiality and user authentication. It prevent performance degradation from bottle neck in encipherment server, and improve service quality.

  • If the SW weaknesses, which are the main cause of cyber breaches, are analyzed and removed in the SW development stages, the cyber breaches can be prevented effectively. In case of Domestic, removing SW weaknesses by applying Secure SDLC(SW Development Life Cycle) has become mandatory. In order to analyze and remove the SW weaknesses effectively, reliable SW weakness diagnostic tools are required. Therefore, we propose the functional requirements of diagnostic tool which is suitable for the domestic environment and the evaluation methodology which can assure the reliability of the diagnostic tools. Then, to analyze the effectiveness of the proposed evaluation framework, both demonstration results and process are presented.

  • In this paper, we propose a method to analyze security vulnerabilities of MS word-processor by checking the validation of its input files. That is, this study is to detect some vulnerabilities in the input file of the word processor by analyzing the header information of its input file. This validation test can not be conducted by the existing software fault injection tools including Holodeck and CANVAS. The proposed method can be also applied to identify the input file vulnerabilities of Hangul and Microsoft Excel which handle a data file with a header as an input. Moreover, our method can provide a means for assessing the fault tolerance and trustworthiness of the target software.

  • Due to vulnerable authentication scheme of SIP, intruders can easily impersonate legitimate user. HTTP Digest authentication scheme or private key issued by trust third parties has been used to prevent impersonation attack. However, these methods have suffered security vulnerability or service delay due to computation overhead. In this paper, we propose new authentication method to generate automatically one-time password using the pre-shared password and time information of messages exchanged between SIP UA(User Agent) and SIP Registrar. This method protects against impersonation attack without significant modification of exiting SIP authentication procedure to build securer SIP environment.

  • In recent years, a high-quality video input device has been generalized, and a central control system capable of simultaneously viewing video input in real time has become an essential element. At this time, there are attempts to access through the web without installing the program separately. However, if multiple high-quality videos are simultaneously viewed through the web browser, the web browser is terminated by force. In this paper, we propose a web-based HLS(HTTP Live Streaming) multi-view system for real-time high-definition video. We have reconstructed the multi-view screen as a screen by transcoding and implemented a system that can monitor multiple video inputs through a web browser on the fly without using security vulnerability ActiveX.
