Hackers try to achieve their purpose in a variety of ways, such as operating own website and hacking a website. Hackers seize a large amount of private information after they have made a zombie PC by using malicious code to upload the website and it would be used another hacking. Almost detection technique is the use Snort rule. When unknown code and the patterns in IDS/IPS devices are matching on network, it detects unknown code as malicious code. However, if unknown code is not matching, unknown code would be normal and it would attack system. Hackers try to find patterns and make shellcode to avoid patterns. So, new method is needed to detect that kinds of shellcode. In this paper, we proposed a noble method to detect the shellcode by using Shannon's information entropy.

Digital forensics refers to finding electronic evidences related to crimes. As cyber crimes are increasing daily, digital forensics for finding electronic evidences is also becoming important. At present, various aspects of digital forensics have being researched including the overall process model and analysis techniques such as network forensics, system forensics and database forensics for digital forensics. Regarding database forensics, only analysis techniques dependent on specific vendors have been suggested. And general process models and analysis techniques which can be used in various databases have not been studied. This paper proposes an integrated process model and analysis technique for database forensics. The proposed database forensics model (DFM) allows us to solve problems and analyze databases according to the situation and purpose, and to use a standard model and techniques for various database analyses. In order to test our model(DFM), we applied it to various database analyses. And we confirmed the results of our experiment that it can be applicable to acquisition in the scene as well as analysis of data relationships.

Recently, the rapid development of network technology has enabled people to use various services on the internet. However, the existing password-based user authentication system used in the internet environment requires a password table, which is a potential security threat as it could be leaked by an insider. To solve this issue, remote user authentication methods that do not require a user password table have been proposed. Regarding remote user authentication using a smart card in particular, various methods have been suggested to reduce expenses and to improve stability and efficiency, but the possibility of impersonation attacks and password-guessing attacks using information saved in a user's smart card still exist. Therefore, this study proposes a remote user authentication method that can safeguard against impersonation attacks and password guessing attacks, by analyzing weak points of conventional methods and creating a smart card's ID and password that are based on the user's ID and password.

In this paper, we present an anonymous authentication and location assurance protocol for secure location-aware services over vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). In other to achieve our goal, we propose the notion of a location-aware signing key so as to strongly bind geographic location information to cryptographic function while providing conditional privacy preservation which is a desirable property for secure vehicular communications. Furthermore, the proposed protocol provides an efficient procedure based on hash chain technique for revocation checking to effectively alleviate communication and computational costs on vehicles in VANETs. Finally, we demonstrate comprehensive analysis to confirm the fulfillment of the security objectives, and the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed protocol.

Due to the growth of social network systems (SNS), big data are realized and Hadoop was developed as a distributed platform for analyzing big data. Enterprises analyze data containing users' sensitive information by using Hadoop and utilize them for marketing. Therefore, researches on data encryption have been done to protect the leakage of sensitive data stored in Hadoop. However, the existing researches support only the AES encryption algorithm, the international standard of data encryption. Meanwhile, Korean government choose ARIA algorithm as a standard data encryption one. In this paper, we propose a HDFS data encryption scheme using ARIA algorithms on Hadoop. First, the proposed scheme provide a HDFS block splitting component which performs ARIA encryption and decryption under the distributed computing environment of Hadoop. Second, the proposed scheme also provide a variable-length data processing component which performs encryption and decryption by adding dummy data, in case when the last block of data does not contains 128 bit data. Finally, we show from performance analysis that our proposed scheme can be effectively used for both text string processing applications and science data analysis applications.

A ubiquitous network environment is a system where the user can avail of the network's services anytime, anywhere. To establish such an environment, studies continue being conducted on wireless communication technology and mobile terminals. The company that provides such services should have an established system for authentication, authorization and charging for users. This service is referred to as Authentication, Authorization, Accounting(AAA), and its aspects have been consistently studied. On the other hand, existing studies have been promoted with regard to the authentication and efficiency of the mobile terminal. One of the method is that the mobile terminal contacts to the home authentication server through the external authentication server every time it is required and; another one is to use a medium server to provide authentication in the middle between them. Thus, this study aims to determine the best method to use ticketing, where tickets are provided through a mobile terminal, complete with authentication and authorization features. Also, as it uses ticket, it can efficiently provide mobile verification processing.

Web service is defined to support interoperable machine to machine interaction over a network and defined as distributed technologies. Recently in web service environment, security has become one of the most critical issues. An attacker may expose user privacy and service information without authentication. Furthermore, the users of web services must temporarily delegate some or all of their behalf. This results in the exposure of user privacy information by agents. We propose a delegation model for providing safety of web service and user privacy in ubiquitous computing environments. In order to provide safety of web service and user privacy, XML-based encryption and a digital signature mechanism need to be efficiently integrated. In this paper, we propose web service management server based on XACML, in order to manage services and policies of web service providers. For this purpose, we extend SAML to declare delegation assertions transferred to web service providers by delegation among agents.

In this paper, we presented a dynamic cyber attack tree which can describe an attack scenario flexibly for an active cyber attack model could be detected complex and transformed attack method. An attack tree provides a formal and methodical route of describing the security safeguard on varying attacks against network system. The existent attack tree can describe attack scenario as using vertex, edge and composition. But an attack tree has the limitations to express complex and new attack due to the restriction of attack tree's attributes. We solved the limitations of the existent attack tree as adding an threat occurrence probability and 2 components of composition in the attributes. Firstly, we improved the flexibility to describe complex and transformed attack method, and reduced the ambiguity of attack sequence, as reinforcing composition. And we can identify the risk level of attack at each attack phase from child node to parent node as adding an threat occurrence probability.

With the development of computer vision systems, many advances have been made in the fields of surveillance, biometrics, medical imaging, and autonomous driving. In the field of autonomous driving, in particular, the object detection technique using deep learning are widely used, and the paved road detection is a particularly crucial problem. Unlike the ROI detection algorithm used in general object detection, the structure of paved road in the image is heterogeneous, so the ROI-based object recognition architecture is not available. In this paper, we propose a deep neural network architecture for atypical paved road detection using Semantic segmentation network. In addition, we introduce the multi-scale semantic segmentation network, which is a network architecture specialized to the paved road detection. We demonstrate that the performance is significantly improved by the proposed method.

Recent works demonstrate that the semi-supervised anomaly detection method functions quite well in the environment with normal data and some anomalous data. However, abnormal data shortages can occur in an environment where it is difficult to reserve anomalous data, such as an unknown attack in the cyber security fields. In this paper, we propose ADA-PH(Abnormal Data Augmentation Method using Perturbation based on Hypersphere), a novel anomalous data augmentation method that is applicable in an environment where abnormal data is insufficient to secure the performance of the semi-supervised anomaly detection method. ADA-PH generates abnormal data by perturbing samples located relatively far from the center of the hypersphere. With the network intrusion detection datasets where abnormal data is rare, ADA-PH shows 23.63% higher AUC performance than anomaly detection without data augmentation and even performs better than the other augmentation methods. Also, we further conduct quantitative and qualitative analysis on whether generated abnormal data is anomalous.
