In this paper, we describe a secure cluster-routing protocol based on a multi-layer scheme in ad hoc networks. We propose efficient protocols, Authentication based on Multi-layer Clustering for Ad hoc Networks (AMCAN), for detailed security threats against ad hoc routing protocols using the selection of the cluster head (CH) and control cluster head (CCH) using a modification of cluster-based routing ARCH and DMAC. This protocol provides scalability of Shadow Key using threshold authentication scheme in ad hoc networks. The proposed protocol comprises an end-to-end authentication protocol that relies on mutual trust between nodes in other clusters. This scheme takes advantage of Shadow Key using threshold authentication key configuration in large ad hoc networks. In experiments, we show security threats against multilayer routing scheme, thereby successfully including, establishment of secure channels, the detection of reply attacks, mutual end-to-end authentication, prevention of node identity fabrication, and the secure distribution of provisional session keys using threshold key configuration.

Now the development of using a internet and security equipment is Processed actively. But It is presented problems about compatability and availability between variable equipment as several protocol. It is able to occur the Problem which is not considered efficiency as monopoly security equipment for the standardization of some vendor As a using of VPN gateway equipment. the same equipments have been actually used only for sale a communication equipment which are not confirmed(authenticate) between of mutual equipments. These problem is remain which are not considered suitable network environment and Position by mutual authentication Processing. Because it is considered for only sale a equipment of several vendor. And You will be remain where is unable to protect from attack of using the same equipment, and You will need a actually Protected method. By authentication system of base on Pn , although there is an intended attack from the third intruder, users can be protected with safe from the physical attacks since he is not a Permitted user by employing CA-VPN gateway that is more viable than the previous VPN connection in its security and certification.

Hash based RFID protocols proposed by Ha and M.Burmester is a scheme that tag's ID is updated using hash function to provide forward secrecy after session end. But this protocols have a problem both privacy and efficiency. This paper analyze a problem for privacy to apply a privacy game model proposed by Vaudenay. we analyze the cause that these scheme is difficult with tag's cheap implementation and efficient resynchronization. To solve these problems, we proposed a new hash based mutual authentication protocol which apply only two protocol's advantages. this protocols is based of resynchronization algorithm for Ha et al.'s protocol and added a new simple counter to record the numner of continuous desynchronization between tag and reader secret informations. this counter is more simple than cyclic counter proposed by M. Burmester's protocol. Also, we prove that proposal protocol improve a privacy against a privacy attack which is executed for Ha and M. Burmester's protocols.

Attacks such as hacking, a virus intimidating a system and a network are increasing recently. However, the existing system security or network management system(NMS) cannot be safe on various threats. Therefore, Firewall, IDS, VPN, LAS(Log Analysis System) establishes security system and has defended a system and a network against a threat. But mutual linkage between security systems was short and cannot prepare an effective correspondence system, and inefficiency was indicated with duplication of security. Therefore, an active security and an Enterprise Security Management came to need. An effective security network was established recently by Enterprise Security Management, Intrusion Tracking, Intrustion Induction. But an internetworking is hard for an enterprise security systems, and a correspondence method cannot be systematic, and it is responded later. Therefore, we proposes the active enterprise security management module that can manage a network safely in this paper.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used for many real-time applications. User authentication is an important security service for WSNs to ensure only legitimate users can access the sensor data within the network. In 2012, Yoo and others proposed a security-performance-balanced user authentication scheme for WSNs, which is an enhancement of existing schemes. In this paper, we show that Yoo and others' scheme has security flaws, and it is not efficient for real WSNs. In addition, this paper proposes a new strong authentication scheme with user privacy for WSNs. The proposed scheme not only achieves end-party mutual authentication (that is, between the user and the sensor node) but also establishes a dynamic session key. The proposed scheme preserves the security features of Yoo and others' scheme and other existing schemes and provides more practical security services. Additionally, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is more appropriate for real-world WSNs applications.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have many applications and are deployed in a wide variety of areas. They are often deployed in potentially adverse or even hostile environment so that there are concerns on security issues in these WSNs. Recently, an anonymous user authentication and key agreement scheme (AUAKAS) was proposed based on symmetric cryptosystem in WSNs. It is claimed in AUAKAS that it assures security against different types of attacks including impersonation attacks. However, this paper shows that AUAKAS does not cope from user impersonation attack and gateway impersonation attack from the legally registered user on the gateway. The security analysis could guide the required features of the security scheme to be satisfied.

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) have become a viable platform owing to their potential of providing communication without any pre-existing infrastructure and central administrating authority. Mutual support and co-operation among nodes are prerequisites for performing functions in such networks. The scarcity of resources makes it economical for nodes to conserve their resources and misbehave by avoiding participation in the network. Therefore, a mechanism is required to detect and handle such misbehaving nodes and promote co-operation in the network. Existing techniques for handling misbehaving nodes focus only on their current behaviour without considering the antecedent behaviour of nodes. In real world, a node may dynamically change its behaviour in accordance to its requirements. Hence, an efficient mechanism is required for providing security against such misbehaviour. This paper proposes an Adaptive Security Model which contemplates the present as well as anterior behaviour of nodes for providing security against dynamic node behaviour. The adaptivity of the model is nested in its ability to requite well-behaving nodes and penalize misbehaving ones in conformity with their overall behaviour. Simulation results indicate the efficiency of proposed scheme in securing the network from the menace of dynamic behaviour of nodes.

As people increasingly rely on mobile networks in modern society, mobile communication security is becoming more and more important. In the Long Term Evolution/System Architecture Evolution (LTE/SAE) architecture, the 3rd Generation Partnership (3GPP) team has also developed the improved Evolved Packet System Authentication and Key Agreement (EPS AKA) protocol based on the 3rd Generation Authentication and Key Agreement (3G AKA) protocol in order to provide mutual authentication and secure communication between the user and the network. Unfortunately, the EPS AKA also has several vulnerabilities such as sending the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) in plain text (which leads to disclosure of user identity and further causes location and tracing of the user, Mobility Management Entity (MME) attack), man-in-middle attack, etc. Hence, in this paper, we analyze the EPS AKA protocol and point out its deficiencies and then propose an Efficient and Security Enhanced Authentication and Key agreement (ESE-EPS AKA) protocol based on hybrid of Dynamic Pseudonym Mechanism (DPM) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) retaining the original framework and the infrastructure of the LTE network. Then, our evaluation proves that the proposed new ESE-EPS AKA protocol is relatively more efficient, secure and satisfies some of the security requirements such as confidentiality, integrity and authentication.

Although the PKl-based user authentication solution has been widely used, the security of it can be deteriorated by a simple password. This is because a long and random private key may be protected by a short and easy-to-remember password. To handle this problem, many biometric-based user authentication solutions have been proposed. However, protecting biometric data is another research issue because the compromise of the biometric data will be permanent. In this paper, we present an implementation to improve the security of the typical PKI-based authentication by protecting the private key with a fingerprint. Compared to the unilateral authentication provided by the typical biometric-based authentication, the proposed solution can provide the mutual authentication. In addition to the increased security, this solution can alleviate the privacy issue of the fingerprint data by conglomerating the fingerprint data with the private key and storing the conglomerated data in a user-carry device such as a smart card. With a 32-bit ARM7-based smart card and a Pentium 4 PC, the proposed fingerprint-based PKI authentication can be executed within 1.3second.

Chen et al. proposed a RFID authentication protocol for anti-counterfeiting and privacy protection. A feasible security mechanism for anti-counterfeiting and privacy protection was proposed using XOR and random number shifting operations to enhance RFID tag's security providing a low cost. However, their authentication protocol has some drawbacks and security problems because they did not consider the surrounding environments. We conduct analysis on the protocol and identify problematic areas for improvement of the research. We also provide enhanced authentication and update scheme based on the comment for efficient supply chain management. The proposed protocol was analyzed and compared with typical XOR based RFID authentication protocols and it was confirmed that our protocol has high safety and low communication cost.
