  • The technology using ARM TrustZone draws attention as a new embedded virtualization approach. The ARM TrustZone defines two virtual execution environment, the secure world and the normal world. In such an environment, the inter-world communication is important to extend function of software. However, the current monitor software does not sufficiently support the inter-world communication. This paper presents a new inter guestOS communication scheme, for each world, for the ARM TrustZone virtualization. The proposed communication scheme supports bidirectional inter-world communication for single core and multicore environment. In this paper, It is implemented on a NVIDIA Tegra3 processor based on the ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore and it showed a bandwidth of 30MB/s.

  • 다양한 방면에서 사용되는 임베디드 시스템의 메모리 취약성에 대한 관심이 많아짐에 따라 임베디드 시스템의 메모리 보호와 관련하여 많은 연구가 진행 중이다. 스택 카나리는 효율적인 메모리 보호 기법으로써 널리 사용되지만 물리 메모리가 제한적이고 사용자 권한 분리를 지원하지 않는 임베디드 시스템에서는 기존 방식을 활용한 스택 카나리를 적용하는 것에 한계가 있다. ARM의 TrustZone은 일반 실행 환경과 신뢰 실행 환경으로 분리하여 일반 실행 환경에서 신뢰 실행 환경의 데이터나 코드에 접근하지 못 하도록 막는다. 그렇기 때문에 ARM의 TrustZone에 암호화 키를 저장하거나 보안이 중요한 동작을 TrustZone에서 실행하는 연구가 많다. 본 논문에서는 ARM의 TrustZone을 활용하여 임베디드 시스템에서 스택 카나리 기법의 한계를 보완 할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다.

  • Community is crucial for human beings not only because they are born with communal self but also because social cooperation is more efficient than competition in many cases. Human beings are defined as Homo communicus living in residential community which is important for the fulfillment of their primary needs. Residential community is an 'intimacy zone' where personal and emotional interactions are made. This study aims at examining the health of residential community in Korea by exploring the level of place attachment and neighborhood trust. Previous studies indicate that place attachment and trust are influenced by three dimensions such as residents' characteristics, house types and regional environment. This study conducted a nationwide questionnaire survey and it shows that place attachment moulds neighborhood trust. The results of path analysis demonstrates that place attachment and trust appear high in detached house areas. Age of residents also gives positive influence on the level of place attachment and neighbourhood trust. This result gives significant policy implications for the development of residential community in Korea. Residential community as an intimacy zone has been eroded and desperately needs to be revitalized. For this, more concern should be given to the issue of desirable size of residential community and the types of houses. Detached house area must be supported by governmental policies.

  • Machine learning such as deep learning have been widely used in recent years. Recently deep learning is performed in a trusted execution environment such as ARM TrustZone to improve security in edge devices and embedded devices with low computing resource. To mitigate this problem, we propose TPMP that efficiently uses the limited memory of TEE through DNN model partitioning. TPMP achieves high confidentiality of DNN by performing DNN models that could not be run with existing memory scheduling methods in TEE through optimized memory scheduling. TPMP required a similar amount of computational resources to previous methodologies.

  • ARM processors, utilized in mobile devices, have integrated the hardware isolation framework, TrustZone technology, to implement two execution environments: the trusted domain "Secure World" and the untrusted domain "Normal World". Rootkit is a type of malicious software that gains administrative access and hide its presence to create backdoors. Detecting the presence of a rootkit in a Secure World is difficult since processes running within the Secure World have no memory access restrictions and are isolated. This paper proposes a technique that leverages the hardware based PMU(Performance Monitoring Unit) to measure events of the Secure World rootkit and to detect the rootkit using deep learning.

  • This paper analyzed the proper methods to solve the security problems of establishing trust zone which is changed by security policy in large scale networks containing multiple VPNs. Therefore, we surveyed the vulnerability of VPN technologies, it analyzed various models suitable for trust zone. By simulations of various models, we Propose the cascade perimeter defence policy model having the neit as such an efficient transit cost and the strictly isolation for trust tone. This model can protect the trust zone from the public network by dividing the trust Tone according to each VPN group and it shows the better transit performance by cascading the position of perimeter defence policy.

  • Mobile devices like iphone, ipad, kindle, and PDA are used as everyday tool. In the mobile environment, smart phones and other mobile units are also used as a tool for protection or infringement of personal information. Therefore, smart monitoring technology is required to protect personal information and privacy. On the other hand, with smart phones and the mobile environment, diverse application technologies are realized on hardware and software platforms. Therefore, this paper designs the network structure that forms privacy trust zone, and based on this, deals with the monitoring and monitoring prevention system with a focus on CCTV, through which this paper proposes a system that provides privacy trust zone information and its utilization which is capable of smart monitoring.

  • Digital accredited certificates issued under the Digital Signature Act provide essential functionalities for online service, so certificates are used for various services such as online banking, e-government. However, certificates can be stolen by hackers and users need to install separate software to use certificates. Recently FIDO, which aims to solve the problems of password-based authentication and the lack of interoperability between authentication methods, is used for biometric authentication and TrustZone, hardware-based secure environment, is used for safe smartphone usage. In this paper, the new service method is suggested which uses FIDO-based biometric authentication and stores certificates in TrustZone. This method can not only improve security and convenience but also be easily applied to the service because it uses built-in functionalities of new smartphones such as biometric sensors and TrustZone. It is expected that people can use certificates in a safe and convenient way with this method.

  • Kernel rootkit is recognized as one of the most severe and widespread threats to corrupt the integrity of an operating system. Without an external monitor as a root of trust, it is not easy to detect kernel rootkits which can intercept and modify communications at the interfaces between operating system components. To provide such a monitor isolated from an operating system that can be compromised, most existing solutions are based on external hardware. Unlike those solutions, we develop a kernel introspection system based on the ARM TrustZone technology without incurring extra hardware cost, which can provide a secure memory space in isolation from the rest of the system. We particularly use a secure timer to implement an autonomous switch between secure and non-secure modes. To ensure integrity of reference, this system measured reference from vmlinux which is a kernel original image. In addition, the flexibility of monitoring block size can be configured for efficient kernel introspection system. The experimental results show that a secure kernel introspection system is provided without incurring any significant performance penalty (maximum 6% decrease in execution time compared with the normal operating system).
