Provable security has widely been used to prove a cryptosystem's security formally in crpytography. In this paper, we analyze the Cramer-Shoup public key cryptosystem that has been known to be provable secure against adaptive chosen ciphertext attack and argue that its security proof is not complete in the generic sense of adaptive chosen ciphertext attack. Future research should be directed toward two directions: one is to make the security proof complete even against generic sense of adaptive chosen ciphertext attack, and another is to try finding counterexamples of successful adaptive chosen ciphertext attack on the Cramer-Shoup cryptosystem.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new paradigm that connects physical and virtual objects from various domains such as home automation, industrial processes, human health, and monitoring. IoT sensors receive information from their environment and forward it to their neighboring nodes. However, the large amounts of exchanged data are vulnerable to attacks that reduce the network performance. Most of the previous security methods for IoT have neglected the energy consumption of IoT, thereby affecting the performance and reducing the network lifetime. This paper presents a new multistep routing protocol based on cellular learning automata. The network lifetime is improved by a performance-based adaptive reward and fine parameters. Nodes can vote on the reliability of their neighbors, achieving network reliability and a reasonable level of security. Overall, the proposed method balances the security and reliability with the energy consumption of the network.

In recent years, image encryption algorithms have been developed rapidly in order to ensure the security of image transmission. With the assistance of our previous work, this paper proposes a novel chaotic image encryption algorithm based on self-adaptive model and feedback mechanism to enhance the security and improve the efficiency. Different from other existing methods where the permutation is performed by the self-adaptive model, the initial values of iteration are generated in a novel way to make the distribution of initial values more uniform. Unlike the other schemes which is on the strength of the feedback mechanism in the stage of diffusion, the piecewise linear chaotic map is first introduced to produce the intermediate values for the sake of resisting the differential attack. The security and efficiency analysis has been performed. We measure our scheme through comprehensive simulations, considering key sensitivity, key space, encryption speed, and resistance to common attacks, especially differential attack.

In this paper, we propose adaptive convergence security policies and management technologies to improve security assurance in the home networking environment. Many security issues may arise in the home networking environment. Examples of such security issues include the user privacy, the service security, the integrated networking security, the middleware security and the device failure. All these security issues, however, should be fulfilled in phase due to many difficulties including deployment cost and technical complexity. For instance, fundamental security requirements such as authentication, access control and prevention of crime and disaster should be addressed first. Then, supplementary security policies and diverse security management technologies should be fulfilled. In this paper, we classify these requirements into three categories, a service authentication, a user authentication and a device authentication, and propose security policies and management technologies for each requirement. Since the home gateway is responsible for interconnection of many home devices and external network access, a variety of context information could be collected from such devices.

Since the wireless smart card has played a main role in the identification security application for the building access; this research has its purpose to improve the performance of the smart card system and aims to offer more convenient to user. The contactless cards do not require insertion into a card reader and can work up to centimeters away from the reading device. To be able to cope with this performance the controlling of power consumption through the adaptive modulation and error control is needed. This paper addresses a forward error control (FEC) scheme with the adaptive Reed-Solomon code rate and an M-ary frequency shift keying (M-FSK) modulation scheme with the varying symbol size M over the link. The result of comparing energy efficiencies of adaptive error correction and adaptive modulation to other various static schemes shows to save over 50% of the energy consumption.

Malware analysis is one of the important concerns of computer security, and advances in analysis techniques have become important for computer security. In the past, the signature-based method was used to detect malware. However, as the percentage of packed malware increased, it became more difficult to detect using the conventional method. In this paper, we propose a method for identifying packers of packed programs using machine learning. The proposed method parses the packed program to extract specific PE information that can identify the packer and identifies the packer using the Adaptive Boosting algorithm among the machine learning models. To verify the accuracy of the proposed method, we collected and tested 391 programs packed with 12 types of packers and found that the packers were identified with an accuracy of about 99.2%. In addition, we presented the results of identification using PEiD, a signature-based PE identification tool, and existing machine learning method. The proposed method shows better performance in terms of accuracy and speed in identifying packers than existing methods.

Broadcast encryption is an efficient way to distribute confidential information to a set of receivers using broadcast channel. It allows the broadcaster to dynamically choose the receiver set during each encryption. However, most broadcast encryption schemes in the literature haven't taken into consideration the receiver's privacy protection, and the scanty privacy preserving solutions are often less efficient, which are not suitable for practical scenarios. In this paper, we propose an efficient dynamic anonymous broadcast encryption scheme that has the shortest ciphertext length. The scheme is constructed over the composite order bilinear groups, and adopts the Lagrange interpolation polynomial to hide the receivers' identities, which yields efficient decryption algorithm. Security proofs show that, the proposed scheme is both secure and anonymous under the threat of adaptive adversaries in standard model.

As attacks in cyber space become advanced and complex, monotonous defense approach of one-one matching manner between attack and defense may be limited to defend them. More efficient defense method is required. This paper proposes multi layers security scheme that can support to defend assets against diverse cyber attacks in systematical and adaptive. We model multi layers security scheme based on Defense Zone including several defense layers and also discuss essential technical elements necessary to realize multi layers security scheme such as cyber threats analysis and automated assignment of defense techniques. Also effects of multi layers security scheme and its applicability are explained. In future, for embodiment of multi layers security scheme, researches about detailed architecture design for Defense Zone, automated method to select the best defense technique against attack and modeling normal state of asset for attack detection are needed.

In order to detect and locate edge features precisely in real images we have developed an algorithm by introducing a nonlocal differentiation of intensity profiles called adaptive directional derivative (ADD), which is evaluated independently of varying ramp widths. In this paper, we first develop the edge detector system employing the ADD and then, the performance of the algorithm is illustrated by comparing the results to those from the Canny's edge detector.
