Demand for the femtocell is largely credited to the surge in a more always best connected communication conscious public. 3GPP defines new architecture and security requirement for Release 9 to deal with femtocell, Home eNode B referred as HeNB. In this paper, we analyze the HeNB security with respect to mutual authentication, access control, and secure key agreement. Our analysis pointed out that a number of security vulnerabilities have still not been addressed and solved by 3GPP technical specification. These include eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attack, compromising subscriber access list, and masquerading as valid HeNB. To the best of our knowledge, any related research studying HeNB security was not published before. Towards this end, this paper proposes an improved authentication and key agreement mechanism for HeNB which adopts proxy-signature and proxy-signed proxy-signature. Through our elaborate analysis, we conclude that the proposed not only prevents the various security threats but also accomplishes minimum distance from use-tolerable authentication delay.

Recent heterogeneous network management researches on information security, however, deal only with simple management using PKI and could not sufficiently address the different kinds of security problems that could arise in a heterogeneous network. Thus, various security requirements should first be satisfied and a security management protocol should first be developed to achieve a secure heterogeneous network. Hence, in this paper, various secure and effective heterogeneous network management that address security issues, which were merely a consideration in existing studies, are proposed. The proposed scheme for the protection of the user privacy is the central object and static middle objects of the process used to mutual authentication, also if communication between users is required 1-out-2 oblivious transfer to communicate by using secret communication, as well as the effectiveness and security conscious approach. Specially The proposed scheme is designed to enhance security and efficiency related to various services required in heterogeneous network, based on the reliable peripheral devices for TTP. Using Mobile device, which has been applied to electronic commerce transactions in existing schemes, this study also proposed an appropriate management scheme that is suitable for a dynamic environment and setting a temporary group to provide various services.

Safe security technology is required for the startup ecosystem according to the construction and service of a joint open platform in the financial sector. Financial industry standard open API recommends that payment-related fintech companies develop/apply additional security technologies to protect core API authentication keys in the mutual authentication process. This study proposes an enhanced API security protocol using multiple channels. It was designed in consideration of the compatibility of heterogeneous platforms by further analyzing the problems and weaknesses of existing open API related research. I applied the method of concealment to remove the additional security channels into a single channel of the existing security protocols. As a result of the performance analysis, the two-way safety of the communication session of the multi-channel and the security of the man-in-the-middle attack of the enhanced authentication key were confirmed, and the computational performance of the delay time (less than 1 second) in the multi-session was confirmed.

Existing as a reverse function in the information age, the security threats against the information system is increasing day by day and a systematic security management to this is being considered more and more important. The most important thing on security management is a risk analysis to understand the cause of the threat and to set up a countermeasure. Therefore, to increase security the proposed model will advise on the set up of the security policy and for a set up of an economic security countermeasure we have increased the reliability on the risk calculation stage. Especially, on the countermeasure stage we have requested a security level on the asset in order to examine the mutual reliance between assets, and differing from the standard model, we have improved the proposed model so that the materializing of the proposed countermeasure has been made to identify the restricted items for each asset and in order to not materialize superficial countermeasures and to make sure to materialize an economic countermeasure.

With the changing safety services and social order systems accompanied by the economic development and changing public security environment since the Chinese economic reform, the security service industry in China is growing daily and related problems are increasing. For the Chinese security service market to be activated, the monopoly of security services by the public security agencies must be removed. In addition, the research and development, expansion, and applications of safety and crime prevention technologies regarding the safety and protection of exhibition, sales, culture, sports, commerce activities, combinations of safety technologies and crime prevention processes, the provision of relevant technical operations, and the expansion of security service areas are required. Furthermore, the administration rights, property rights, and business management rights of security companies must be separated, the security headquarters must be integrated and coordinated for optimization of various resources solely by market needs, and their rights and affiliation relations must be clear. Besides, the competitiveness of security companies in the security service market must be enhanced by unifying the business management, and optimizing and sharing their resources. The security service ordinances of China that have been implemented now must be applied realistically, methods to activate the true market economy for security services must be researched, and various ordinances related to security services must be realigned in line with the characteristics of security services. Finally, for the mutual cooperation system between public and private security services, the public security agencies must acknowledge the importance of private security services and the status of security service providers in crime prevention and social order maintenance. They must establish partnership relations with each other beyond the unilateral direction and management system for security services and drive with positive attitudes the security service industry which is still in its infancy.

In this paper, we present an analysis of the IS-95 authentication protocol for the Code Division Multiple Access(CDMA) mobile communication network. We propose a mutual authentication protocol, AP-6, to improve the security and correctness. Formal description and verification of the proposed AP-6 are also presented on the basis of the formal logic. It is shown that the proposed AP-6 is more secure and correct than the IS-95 authentication protocol.

With the swift growth of wireless technologies, an increasing number of users rely on the mobile services which can exchange information in mobile networks. Security is of key issue when a user tries to access those services in this network environment. Many authentication schemes have been presented with the purpose of authenticating entities and wishing to communicate securely. Recently, Chou et al. and Farash-Attari presented two ID authentication schemes. They both claimed that their scheme could withstand various attacks. However, we find that the two authentication schemes are vulnerable to trace attack while having a problem of clock synchronization. Additionally, we show that Farash-Attari's scheme is still susceptible to key-compromise impersonation attack. Therefore, we present an enhanced scheme to remedy the security weaknesses which are troubled in these schemes. We also demonstrate the completeness of the enhanced scheme through the Burrow-Abadi-Needham (BAN) logic. Security analysis shows that our scheme prevents the drawbacks found in the two authentication schemes while supporting better secure attributes. In addition, our scheme owns low computation overheads compared with other related schemes. As a result, our enhanced scheme seems to be more practical and suitable for resource-constrained mobile devices in mobile networks.
