In a network communication process, cryptographic algorithms play important role for secure process. This paper presents a new system architecture named "DCCS." This system can handle flexible operations of both cryptographic algorithms and the keys. For experimental evaluation, two representative cryptographic algorithms DES and Triple-DES are designed and implemented into an FPGA chip on the SEBSW-1. Then the developed board is confirmed to change its cryptographic algorithms dynamically. Also its throughput confirmed the ability of the real-time net-work use of the designed system.

Implementing a hardware cryptographic system is strongly required to assure high Qualify contents security. Not only because the many of the prevalent cryptographic algorithms require much computation time but also software implementations of cryptographic systems do not guarantee high performance, we need to design a hardware cryptographic system with a dedicated crypto-chip. This paper describes a case study of implementing a PCI cryptographic card which supports cryptographic algorithms such as 3DES, AES, SEED.

The more improved the Internet and the information technology, the stronger cryptographic system is required which can satisfy the information security on the platform of personal hand-held devices or smart card system. This paper introduces a case study of designing an elliptic curve cryptographic processor of a high performance that can be suitably used in a wireless communicating device or in an embedded system. To design an efficient cryptographic system, we first analyzed the operation hierarchy of the elliptic curve cryptographic system and then implemented the system by adopting a serial cell multiplier and modified Euclid divider. Simulation result shows that the system was correctly designed and it can compute thousands of operations per a second. The operating frequency used in simulation is about 66MHz and gate counts are approximately 229,284.

This paper describes a C-API (Cryptographic-Application program Interface) mechanism that can serve cryptographic service to one or more application programmers in an open distributed computing system. Generic cryptographic service, provides application Programmers with cryptographic algorithms and interfaces which can be shared so that the programmers can program distributed applications containing security services even though they have no detailed knowledge of cryptographic algorithms. Therefore, in this paper, a generic C-API mechanism is designed that can be used independently from various application environments and basic system structures so that programmers can use it commonly. This mechanism has the advantage that allows application programmers be able to use some cryptographic services and key management services not considering of the application program and operating system.

Treatise that see designed MDS block newly algorithm itself is concise and improve the speed of Twofish cryptographic algorithm that easy of implement is good but the processing speed has slow shortcoming than Rijndael cryptographic algorithm Problem of speed decline by a bottle-neck phenomenon of processing process existed as block that designed MDS block occupies critical path of Twofish cryptographic system Multiplication arithmetic that is used by operator in this MDS convex using LUT arithmetic and modulo-2 arithmetic speed decline and a bottle-neck phenomenon about MDS itself remove. Twofish cryptographic system including MDS block designed newly by these result confirmed that bing elevation of the processing speed about $10\%$ than existing Twofish cryptographic system.

In this paper, we show the design requirements of the cryptographic module and its security algorithm designed to prevent the exposure of the command signal applied to Flight Termination System. The cryptographic module consists of two separate devices that are Command Insertion Device and Command Generation Device. The cryptographic module designed to meet the 3 principles(Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability) for the information security. AES-256 block encryption algorithm and SHA-256 Hash function were applied to the encrypted symmetric key encryption method. The proposed cryptographic module is expected to contribute to the security and reliability of the Flight Termination System for Space Launch Vehicle.

Nuclear power plants have recognized the importance of nuclear cybersecurity. Based on regulatory guidelines and security-related standards issued by regulatory agencies around the world including IAEA, NRC, and KINAC, nuclear operating organizations and related systems manufacturing organizations, design companies, and regulatory agencies are considering methods to prepare for nuclear cybersecurity. Cryptographic algorithms have to be developed and applied in order to meet nuclear cybersecurity requirements. This paper presents methodologies for validating cryptographic algorithms that should be continuously applied at the critical control system of I&C in NPPs. Through the proposed schemes, validation programs are developed in the PLC, which is a critical system of a NPP's I&C, and the validation program is verified through simulation results. Since the development of a cryptographic algorithm validation program for critical digital systems of NPPs has not been carried out, the methodologies proposed in this paper could provide guidelines for Cryptographic Module Validation Modeling for Control Systems in NPPs. In particular, among several CMVP, specific testing techniques for ECB mode-based block ciphers are introduced with program codes and validation models.

QKD(Quantum Key Distribution) is one of the protocols that can make two distant parties safely share secure keys against the threat of quantum computer. Generally, cryptographic applications which are connected to the QKD device have fixed roles as a transmitter and a receiver due to the race condition and complexity of implementation. Because the conventional QKD system is mainly applied to the link encryptor, there are no problems even if the roles of the cryptographic devices are fixed. We propose a new scheme of QKD system and protocol that is easy to extend to the QKD network by eliminating quantum key dependency between cryptographic device and QKD node. The secure keys which are generated by the TRNG(True Random Number Generator) are provided to the cryptographic applications instead of quantum keys. We design an architecture to transmit safely the secure keys using the inbound and outbound quantum keys which are shared between two nodes. In this scheme, since the dependency of shared quantum keys between two QKD nodes is eliminated, all cryptographic applicatons can be a master or a slave depending on who initiates the cryptographic communications.

In Windows operating system, CSPs(Cryptographic Service Providers) are provided for offering a easy and convenient way of using an various cryptographic algorithms to applications. The applications selectively communicate with various CSPs through a set of functions known as the Crypto API(Cryptographic Application Program Interface). During this process, a secure method, accessing data using a handle, is used in order to prevent analysis of the passing parameters to function between CryptoAPI and CSPs. In this paper, our experiment which is using a novel memory traceback method proves that still there is a vulnerability of private key and secret key disclosure in spite of the secure method above-mentioned.
