In symmetric cryptography, a cryptographically secure Substitution-Box (S-Box) is a key component of a block cipher. S-Box adds a confusion layer in block ciphers that provide resistance against well-known attacks. The generation of a cryptographically secure S-Box depends upon its generation mechanism. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for the construction of cryptographically secure S-Boxes. This framework uses a combination of linear fractional transformation and permutation functions. S-Boxes security is analyzed against well-known security criteria that include nonlinearity, bijectiveness, strict avalanche and bits independence criteria, linear and differential approximation probability. The S-Boxes can be used in the encryption of any grayscale digital images. The encrypted images are analyzed against well-known image analysis criteria that include pixel changing rates, correlation, entropy, and average change of intensity. The analysis of the encrypted image shows that our image encryption scheme is secure.

EC(Electronic Commerce) which is done on the virtual space through Internet has strong point like independence from time and space. On the contrary, it also has weak point like security problem because anybody can access easily to the system due to open network attribute of Internet, Therefore, we need the solutions that protect the EC security problem for safe and useful EC activity. One of these solutions is the implementation of strong cipher system. YK2(Young Ku King) cipher system proposed in this paper is good solution for the EC security and it overcome the limit of current block cipher system using 128 bits key length for input, output, encryption key and 32 rounds. Moreover, it is designed for the increase of time complexity by adapting more complex design for key scheduling algorithm regarded as one of important element effected to encryption.

A proposed system can decrypt each contents block through a double buffer algorithm which can continually buffer contents by dividing a multimedia contents into some blocks and provides more improved method of encryption than existing system by being not capable of decrypting the whole multimedia contents if one key is exposed. Also, using digital signature and public encryption algorithm for mutual authentication between systems, this paper proposes the system which sends and encrypts symmetric keys for contents encryption through SOAP messages.

MANET consists of only wireless nodes having limited processing capability. It processes routing and data transmission through cooperation among each other. And it is exposed to many attack threats due to the dynamic topology by movement of nodes and multi-hop communication. Therefore, the reliability of transmitted data between nodes must be improved and security of integrity must be high. In this paper, we propose a method to increase the reliability of transmitted data by providing a secure cryptography protocol. The proposed method used a hierarchical structure to provide smooth cryptographic services. The cluster authentication node issues the cluster authentication key pair and unique key to the nodes. The nodes performs the encryption through two steps of encryption using cluster public key and block encryption using unique key. Because of this, the robustness against data forgery attacks was heightened. The superior performance of the proposed method can be confirmed through comparative experiment with the existing security routing method.

This paper describes an efficient hardware design of key wrap/unwrap algorithm for security layer of WiBro system. The key wrap/unwrap core (WB_KeyWuW) is based on AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm, and performs encryption/decryption of 128bit TEK (Traffic Encryption Key) with 128bit KEK (Key Encryption Key). In order to achieve m area-efficient implementation, two design techniques are considered; First, round transformation block within AES core is designed using a shared structure for encryption/decryption. Secondly, SubByte/InvSubByte blocks that require the largest hardware in AES core are implemented by using field transformation technique. As a result, the gate count of the WB_KeyWuW core is reduced by about 25% compared with conventional LUT (Lookup Table)-based design. The WB_KeyWuW con designed in Verilog-HDL has about 14,300 gates, and the estimated throughput is about $16{\sim}22-Mbps$ at 100-MHz@3.3V, thus the designed core can be used as an IP for the hardware design of WiBro security system.

Receiving great attention of IoT and 4th industrial revolution, the necessity comes to the fore of the plant system which aims making it smart and effective. Smart Factory is the key realm of IoT to apply with the concept to optimize the entire process and it presents a new and flexible production paradigm based on the collected data from numerous sensors installed in a plant. Especially, the wireless sensor network technology is receiving attention as the key technology of Smart Factory, researches to interface those technology is actively in progress. In addition, IoT devices for plant industry security and high reliable network protocols are under development to cope with high-risk plant facilities. In the meanwhile, Blockchain can support high security and reliability because of the hash and hash algorithm in its core structure and transaction as well as the shared ledger among all nodes and immutability of data. With the reason, this research presents Blockchain as a method to preserve security and reliability of the wireless communication technology. In regard to that, it establishes some of key concepts of the possibility on the blockchain based IoT Edge devices for Plant O&M (Operations and Maintenance), and fulfills performance verification with test devices to present key indicator data such as transaction elapsed time and CPU consumption rate.

A symmetric block cryptosystem uses an identical cryptographic key at encryption and decryption processes. HIGHT cipher algorithm is 64-bit block cryptographic technology for mobile device that was authorized as international standard by ISO/IEC on 2010. In this paper, block cipher HIGHT algorithm is designed using Verilog-HDL. Four modes of operation for block cipher such as ECB, CBC, OFB and CTR are supported. When continuous message blocks of fixed size are encrypted or decrypted, the desigend HIGHT core can process a 64-bit message block in every 34-clock cycle. The cryptographic processor designed in this paper operates at 144MHz on vertex chip of Xilinx, Inc. and the maximum throughput is 271Mbps. The designed cryptographic processor is applicable to security module of the areas such as PDA, smart card, internet banking and satellite broadcasting.

This paper presents implementation of two types of the 802.11 MAC engine for the next generation WLAN, 802.11n. The first version of MAC engine consists of hardwired logic and embedded firmware. Hardwired logic includes Tx block, Rx block, Backoff block, and ChannelManage block. Embedded firmware contains Protocol Control block, MLME block, and MSDU processing block. The first version has a time-critical fault during the atomic transmission caused by software overhead, so it can not be applied to 802.11n MAC. For that reason, the second version has additional blocks with hardwired logic modules to reduce software overhead of the first version. This enhanced version has 73Mbps throughput and it is expected to be further improved up to 129 Mbps with frame aggregation which is one of the key additional features of 802.11n. As a result, the second version of MAC engine can be applied to 802.11n MAC.

This paper proposes an optical encryption and decryption system for OFB(Output Feedback Block) encryption algorithm. The proposed scheme uses a dual-encoding technique in order to implement optical XOR logic operation. Also, the proposed method provides more enhanced security strength than the conventional electronic OFB method due to the huge security key with 2-dimensional array. Finally, computer simulation results of encryption and decryption are shown to verify the proposed method, and hence the proposed method makes it possible to implement more effective and stronger optical block encryption system with high-speed performance and the benefits of parallelism.
