유비쿼터스 시대의 도래와 함께 센서를 기반으로 하는 무선 센서 네트워크의 응용 분야는 광범위하게 확산되고 있다. 따라서 무선 센서 네트워크에서 센서들로부터 수집되는 기밀 데이터를 허가 받지 않은 사용자로부터 보호하기 위해, 널리 사용되어지는 스마트카드와 패스워드 기반의 사용자 인증도 견고한 보안을 요구한다. 최근 무선 센서 네트워크는 클러스터 헤드와 센서 노드 이원화를 통해 운용상 보다 효과적인 계층적 무선 센서 네트워크로 전개 발전되고 있다. 2012년 Das 등은 계층적 무선 센서 네트워크에 실제 적용 가능한 동적 패스워드 기반 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다. 본 논문은 안정성 분석을 통해 Das 등의 스킴이 그들의 주장과 달리 여전히 중간자 공격, 패스워드 추측 공격, 패스워드 변경 공격을 막을 수 없을 뿐 아니라, 필수적인 보안 요구사항인 사용자와 클러스터 헤드 간의 상호인증을 투명하게 제공하지 못함을 입증한다.

스마트카드를 사용하는 원격 사용자 인증 스킴은 일반적으로 패스워드를 기반으로 하여 연구되었고, 지속적으로 보안성을 강화하는 개선안들이 제시되어 왔다. 최근 생체인식 기술의 발달과 함께, 다양한 인간 생체정보(biometrics)를 비밀키 값으로 사용하는 생체정보 기반 사용자 인증 스킴들이 소개되면서, 전통적인 패스워드 기반 인증 스킴보다 상대적으로 안전성과 편리성이 향상된 접근 방법으로 부상하고 있다. 한편 유비쿼터스 시대의 도래와 함께 핵심 기술이 되는 무선 센서 네트워크에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 센서 노드를 이용하여 정보를 수집 처리하는 무선 센서 네트워크는 사회전반으로 응용분야가 확대됨과 동시에 네트워크의 구조적인 보안을 비롯한 다양한 보안 요구사항을 요구한다. 따라서 무선 센서 네트워크 응용계층에서 요구되는 사용자 인증에 대한 연구 또한 서서히 진행되고 있다. 2010년 Yuan 등은 생체정보를 기반으로 무선 센서 네트워크에 적용 가능한 효과적인 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다. 본 논문은 안전성 분석을 통해 Yuan 등의 스킴이 그들의 주장과 달리 여전히 패스워드 추측 공격, 사용자 가장 공격 및 재전송 공격에 취약함을 입증한다.

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) enable wireless communication between vehicles and roadside infrastructure to provide a safer and more efficient driving environment. However, due to VANETs wireless nature, vehicles are exposed to several security attacks when they join the network. In order to protect VANETs against misbehaviours, one of the vital security requirements is to revoke the misbehaved vehicles from the network. Some existing revocation protocols have been proposed to enhance security in VANETs. However, most of the protocols do not efficiently address revocation issues associated with group signature-based schemes. In this paper, we address the problem by constructing a revocation protocol particularly for group signatures in VANETs. We show that this protocol can be securely and efficiently solve the issue of revocation in group signature schemes. The theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate our work is secure against adversaries and achieves performance efficiency and scalability.

Security-related issues in mobile communications are increasing. The security requirements of mobile communications for the mobile users include authentication of the mobile user, the data confidentiality, the data confidentiality and the location privacy of mobile user. These services require security features compatible with the wireline networks. However, wireless networks have many restrictions compare to wireline networks such as the limited computational capability of mobile equipment and limited resource(bandwidth) between a mobile user and a fixed network. So, security features for IMT-2000 are designed to meet the limited capacity. In this paper, we analyze the required security features and mechanism, and design network access security feature effective for IMT-2000 Systems. The design includes security functions allocation to each system. Finally, discuss the computational power of each system based on at]coated functions to it

This paper shows an implementation and management result of wireless networks based security light control system, which performs a great role in protection of pedestrians and prevention of crime. Conventional security light units have severe limits in confirmation and inspection of security light unit failure, like wilful damage by someone or failure by influence of other equipment or failure by spontaneous heat-increase, and so on. In addition, local government offices are responsible for maintenance of security light units and as a matter of fact, most of civil complaints are about security light units. It is an obvious that the existing security light maintenance system reaches the limit and the security light maintenance problem is a difficulty of local government. Therefore, efficient security light control system is needed, which enables central control and intelligent maintenance. Moreover, the system has to be easy to control and has to be stable. In this study, wireless sensor network based security light control system is implemented, which is independent of programming language and platform, and which is simple to control and extend the system. The proven protocols, HTTP and SOAP, are utilized in order to improve the system reliability. This paper shows the excellence of our proposed system by implementing and operating it in real environment.

Cross-layer design is a concept, which captures the dependencies and interactions and enables information sharing among layers in order to improve the network performance and security. There are two key challenges in wireless networks, lossy features of links and power assumption of network nodes. Cross-layer design of congestion control and power allocation in wireless lossy networks has been studied in the existing literature; however, there has been no contribution proposed in the literature that exploits the path diversity. In this paper, we are motivated to develop a cross-layer design of congestion control and power allocation, which takes into account lossy features of wireless links and transmission powers of network nodes and can be implemented in a distributed manner. Numerical simulation is conducted to illustrate the performance of our proposed algorithm and the comparison with current alternative approaches.

We describe a Bluetooth wireless sensor network for security systems, which includes the implementation issues about system architecture, power management, self-configuration of network, and routing. We think that the methods or algorithms described in this paper can be easily applied to other embedded Bluetooth applications for wireless networks.

In recent years the popularity of multi-hop wireless networks has been growing. Its flexible topology and abundant routing path enables many types of applications. However, the lack of a centralized controller often makes it difficult to design a reliable service in multi-hop wireless networks. While packet routing has been the center of attention for decades, recent research focuses on data discovery such as file sharing in multi-hop wireless networks. Although there are many peer-to-peer lookup (P2P-lookup) schemes for wired networks, they have inherent limitations for multi-hop wireless networks. First, a wired P2P-lookup builds a search structure on the overlay network and disregards the underlying topology. Second, the performance guarantee often relies on specific topology models such as random graphs, which do not apply to multi-hop wireless networks. Past studies on wireless P2P-lookup either combined existing solutions with known routing algorithms or proposed tree-based routing, which is prone to traffic congestion. In this paper, we present two wireless P2P-lookup schemes that strictly build a topology-dependent structure. We first propose the Ring Interval Graph Search (RIGS) that constructs a DHT only through direct connections between the nodes. We then propose the ValleyWalk, a loosely-structured scheme that requires simple local hints for query routing. Packet-level simulations showed that RIGS can find the target with near-shortest search length and ValleyWalk can find the target with near-shortest search length when there is at least 5% object replication. We also provide an analytic bound on the search length of ValleyWalk.

The emerging wireless networks require the design of new authentication protocols due to their dynamic nature and vulnerable-to-attack structure. Recently, Wu and others proposed a wireless authentication protocol which is claimed to be an improvement of the authentication protocol proposed by Lee and others which provides user anonymity. In this letter, we show that these protocols have a common flaw and that these protocols fail to provide user anonymity. We also propose a modification method to solve this problem.

무선 네트워크를 이용한 사용자의 업무 편의성 및 효율성이라는 순기능은 보안 위협이 발생하면 심각한 네트워크 자원 가용성의 침해와 더불어 중요한 기업 정보의 유출로 이어질 수 있다. 특히 무선 AP(Access Point)를 통해 보안 취약점을 악용한 다양한 보안 공격과 이로 이한 피해가 늘어나고 있다. 이러한 다양한 공격에 대항하고 내부망을 보호하기 위해 공공기관 및 기업에서 WIPS(Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)를 도입하는 사례가 늘어나고 있다. 하지만, WIPS 솔루션 도입시 고려해야 할 높은 비용은 개인 또는 소규모 회사에서의 WIPS 솔루션 도입을 방해하는 주요 이슈이다. 본 논문에서는 WIPS 솔루션 도입에 따른 비용 문제를 절감하고 다양한 무선랜 보안 위협들을 차단하기 위한 라즈베리 파이를 이용한 WIPS 센서 구현 방안을 제안한다. 이를 통해 비교적 낮은 비용으로 기업 정보를 보호하고 서비스 연속성을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
