The access controls are the methods which are generally used in such systems as computer operating systems, workflow systems, information security systems and etc.. In the paper, is proposed a role-based access control model which not only has fundamental security functions such as security, integrity and flow control, but also meets the access control requirements of role-based social organizations. The proposed role-based access control model is designed in order to perform its functions in simple and secure way, largely in the environment of web-based applications.

The conversion of the international standard web utilization HTML5 technology is being developed for improvement of the internet environment based on nonstandard technology like ActiveX. Hyper Text Markup Language 5 (HTML5) of basic programming language for creating a web page is designed to consider the security more than HTML4. However, the range of attacks increased and a variety of security threats generated from HTML4 environment inherited by new HTML5 API. In this paper, we focus on the script-based attack such as CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery), Cookie Sniffing, and HTML5 API such as CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing), Geolocation API related with the infringement of the personal information. We reproduced the infringement cases actually and embodied a detection module of a Plug-in type diagnosed based on client. The scanner allows it to detect and respond to the vulnerability of HTML5 previously, thereby self-diagnosing the reliability of HTML5-based web applications or web pages. In a case of a new vulnerability, it also easy to enlarge by adding another detection module.

Existing network layer firewall security support is one that does not support the higher layer, the application layer of a vulnerable web application security. Under these circumstances, the vulnerability of web applications to be able to defend a Web Application Firewall is positioned as a solver to solve the important security issues of businesses spotlighted in the next generation of security systems, and a very active market in the market other than domestic is expected to be formed. However, Firewall Web has not yet proposed a standard which can be used to test the performance of the Web Application Firewall Web Application Firewall and select the products of trust hardly Companies in BMT conduct their own individual problems and the cost of performance testing technologies, there is a limit. In this study, practically usable BMT model was developed to evaluate the firewall vendor. Product ratings ISO / IEC 9126, eight product characteristics meet the performance and characteristics of a web application firewall entries are derived. This can relieve the burden on the need to be evaluated in its performance testing of Web firewall, and can enhance the competitiveness of domestic-related sectors, by restoring confidence in the product can reduce the dependence on foreign products.

Nowadays, web defacement becomes the utmost threat which can harm the target organization's image and reputation. These defacement activities reflect the hacker's political motivation or his tendency. Therefore, the analysis of the hacker's activities can give the decisive clue to pursue criminals. A specific message or photo or music on the defaced web site and the outcome of analysis will be supplying some decisive clues to track down criminals. The encoding method or used fonts of the remained hacker's messages, and hacker's SNS ID such as Twitter or Facebook ID also can help for tracking hackers information. In this paper, we implemented the web defacement analysis system by applying CBR algorithm. The implemented system extracts the features from the web defacement cases on zone-h.org. This paper will be useful to understand the hacker's purpose and to plan countermeasures as a IDSS(Investigation Detection Support System).

With the growth of Web services and the development of web exploit toolkits, web-based malware has increased dramatically. Using Javascript Obfuscation, recent web-based malware hide a malicious URL and the exploit code. Thus, pattern matching for network intrusion detection systems has difficulty of detecting malware. Though various methods have proposed to detect Javascript malware on a users' web browser, the overall detection is needed to counter advanced attacks such as APTs(Advanced Persistent Treats), aimed at penetration into a certain an organization's intranet. To overcome the limitation of previous pattern matching for network intrusion detection systems, a novel deobfuscating method to handle obfuscated Javascript is needed. In this paper, we propose a framework for effective hidden malware detection through an automated deobfuscation regardless of advanced obfuscation techniques with overriding JavaScript functions and a separate JavaScript interpreter through to improve jsunpack-n.

Recently, a variety of attacks on web services have been occurring through a multiple access environment such as PC, tablet, and smartphone. These attacks are causing various subsequent damages such as online fraud transactions, takeovers and theft of accounts, fraudulent logins, and information leakage through web service vulnerabilities. Creating a new fake account for Fraud attacks, hijacking accounts, and bypassing IP while using other usernames or email addresses is a relatively easy attack method, but it is not easy to detect and block these attacks. In this paper, we have studied a method to detect online fraud transaction and obsession by identifying and managing devices accessing web service using web-based device fingerprinting. In particular, it has been proposed to identify devices and to manage them by scoring process. In order to secure the validity of the proposed scheme, we analyzed the application cases and proved that they can effectively defend against various attacks because they actively cope with online fraud and obtain visibility of user accounts.

Common web services have been continuously targeted by hackers due to an access control policy that must be allowed to an unspecified number of people. In order to cope with this situation, companies regularly check web vulnerabilities and take measures according to the risk of discovered vulnerabilities. The risk of these web vulnerabilities is calculated through preliminary statistics and self-evaluation of domestic and foreign related organizations. However, unlike static diagnosis such as security setting and source code, web vulnerability check is performed through dynamic diagnosis. Even with the same vulnerability item, various attack results can be derived, and the degree of risk may vary depending on the subject of diagnosis and the environment. In this respect, the predefined risk level may be different from that of the actual vulnerability. In this paper, to improve this point, we present a web vulnerability risk assessment model based on the attack result centering on the cyber kill chain.

Grid services offer SSO(single sign-on) mechanism using GSI(grid security infrastructure) based on X.509. However. portal applications in web environment use ID and password model for single sign-on. Grid portals means a system which provides grid services by integrating portlet contents on single web interface. In existing research such as GAMA and PURSE, SSO for a whole grid portal is figured out in the way that user is authenticated by ID and password in front and call grid service via GSI at back-end. Other types of web applications outside of portlet framework cannot unfortunately access grid service in SSO way in the existing researches, because the SSO mechanism is developed for portlet framework only. In this paper, we suggest a SSO mechanism based on ID and password model, which forwards authentication information and a GSI token for grid access among portlets and grid-enabled web applications. This mechanism is applied to MGrid for SSO, which consists of applications of java web start, applet, servlet, and etc. as also as portlets.

Single Sign-On (SSO) service manages user's account passwords from multiple websites so that security in a high level is required. Users who use the SSO service are authenticated through the Identity Provider (IdP) when logging into the website. We present the security requirements that IdP can take in order to minimize the user's risk whose IdP account is compromised. We describe the security threats that arise when the security requirements are not satisfied. Through evaluation, we prove that the attacker's session cannot be canceled even if the user recognizes the attack if the IdP does not satisfy the security requirements.

Portal site is not only providing search engine and e-mail service but also various services including blog, news, shopping, and others. The fact that average number of daily login for Korean portal site Naver is reaching 300 million suggests that many people are using portal sites. With the increase in number of users followed by the diversity in types of services provided by portal sites, the attack is also increasing. Most of studies of password authentication is focused on threat and countermeasures, however, in this study, we analyse the security threats and security requirement of membership, login, password reset first phase, password reset second phase. Also, we measure security score with common criteria of attack potential. As a result, we compare password authentication system of domestic and abroad portal sites.
