Secondary damage to the user is a problem in biometrics. A brain-wave has no shape and a malicious user may not cause secondary damage to a user. However, if user sends brain-wave signals to an authentication system using a network, a malicious user could easily capture the brain-wave signals. Then, the malicious user could access the authentication system using the captured brain-wave signals. In addition, the dataset containing the brain-wave signals is large and the transfer time is long. However, user authentication requires a real-time processing, and an encryption scheme on brain-wave signals is necessary. In this paper, we propose an efficient encryption scheme using a chaos map and adaptive junk data on the brain-wave signals for user authentication. As a result, the encrypted brain-wave signals are produced and the processing time for authentication is reasonable in real-time.

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.

Gradually increasing the value of the technology, the techniques of the various security systems to protect the core technology have been developed. The proposed security scheme, which uses both a Password and the various devices, is always open by malicious user. In order to solve that problem, the biometric authentication systems are introduced but they have a problem which is the secondary damage to the user. So, the authentication methods using EEG(Electroencephalography) signals were developed. However, the size of EEG signals is big and it cause a lot of problems for the real-time authentication. And the encryption method is necessary. In this paper, we proposed an efficient real-time authentication system applied encryption scheme with junk data using chaos map on the EEG signals.

Security threats occur from the outside, but more often from the inside. In particular, since the internal user knows about the information service, the security threat damage caused by the internal user is greater. In this environment, the actions of all users accessing information services should be monitored and recorded in real-time. However, the current operating system records only the logs of system and application execution, so there is a limit to monitoring user behavior in real-time. In such a security environment, damage may occur due to user's unauthorized actions. To solve this problem, this study proposes an architecture that monitors user behavior in real-time in a Linux environment. As a result of verifying the function to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed architecture, the console input values and output angles of all users who have access to the operating system are monitored in real-time and stored. Although the performance of the proposed architecture is somewhat slower than the identification and authentication functions provided by the operating system, it was confirmed that the performance was not at a level that users would recognize, and thus it was judged to be sufficiently effective. However, since this study focuses on monitoring the console behavior, it is impossible to monitor the behavior of user applications running in the background, so additional research is needed.

This research develops an algorithm using image synthesis for a server to authenticate users and implements it. The server creates cards with random dots for users and distribute them to users. The server also manages information of the cards distributed to users. When there is an authentication request from a user, the server creates a server card based on information of the user' s card in real time and send it to the user. Different server card is generated for each authentication. Thus, the server card plays a role of one-time password challenge. The user overlaps his/her card with the server card and read an image(eg. a number with four digits) made up from them and inputs the image to the system. This is the authentication process. Keeping security level high, this paper proposes a technique to generate the image clearly and implements it.

Existing web-based system management software solutions show some limitations in time and space. Moreover, hey possess such as shortcomings unreliable error message announcements and difficulties with real-time assistance supports and emergency measures. In order to solve these deficiencies, Wireless Remote Control System(W-RCS) was designed and implemented. W-RCS is able to manage and monitor remote systems by using mobile communication devices for instantaneous control. The implementation of W-RCS leads to these security problems as well as solutions to aforementioned issues with existing web-based system management software solutions. Therefore, this paper has focused on the security matters related to W-RCS. The security functions based on public key infrastructure include mobile device user authentication and target system access control. The W-RCS allows real-time user authentication, increases the flexibility of resource administrators and mobile device non, and provides not only uninterrupted services, but also safe mobile office environments.

Recently, wireless Internet service has become generalized, and required the user authentication of a mobile hosts and QoS. However, time required for user authentication during handoff Processes between a wireless LAN system and mobile hosts is long, and is unsuitable for real-time communication and multimedia applications. In this paper. we improved the existing system in order to reduce a lead time of user authentication as they extended a Fast Inter-AP handoff. We use a Mechanism to assume a confidence degree with bases by the time that stayed at individual wireless LAN systems in order to reduce the handoffs. The experiment network shows that it decreases communication load, and improves communication QoS.

In a delegate authentication, a user can lend his/her own authentication data to the third parties to let them be authenticated instead of himself/herself. The user authentication schemes based on the memory of unique data such as password, are vulnerable to this type of attack. Biometric authentication could minimize the risk of delegate authentication since it uses the biometric data unique by each person. Group authentication scheme is used to prove that each group member belongs to the corresponding group. For applications such as an electronic voting or a mobile meeting where the number of group members is changing dynamically, a new group authentication method is needed to reflect the status of group in real time. In this paper, we propose biometric authentication based dynamic group signature scheme. The proposed scheme is composed of biometric key generation, group public key creation, group signature generation, group signature verification and member update protocols. The proposed member update protocol is secure against colluding attacks of existing members and could reflect group status in real time.

In this paper, the proposal system can achieve the more safety of RFID System with the 2-step authentication procedures for the enhancement about the security of general RFID systems. After authentication RFID Tag, additionally, the proposal system extract the characteristic information in the user image for acquisition of the additional authentication information of the user with the camera. In this paper, the system which was proposed more enforce the security of the automatic entrance and exit authentication system with the cognitive characters of RFID Tag and the extracted characteristic information of the user image through the camera. The RFID system which use the active tag and reader with 2.4GHz bandwidth can recognize the tag of RFID in the various output manner. Additionally, when the RFID system have errors, the characteristic information of the user image is designed to replace the RFID system as it compare with the similarity of the color, outline and input image information which was recorded to the database previously. In the result of experiment, the system can acquire more exact results as compared with the single authentication system when it using RFID Tag and the information of color characteristics.
