Recently, according to being advanced internet, mobile communication technique, Telematics environment which users in vehicle can use internet service in LAN(Local Area Network) via mobile device has being realized. In this paper, we propose the remote user authentication protocol to solve these issues. Additionally, we use biometrics(fingerprint) for our user authentication protocol cause it can provide to avoid critical weakness that can be lost, stolen, or forgotten and to make authentication easily. In our user authentication protocol, to protect the biometric we use session key which is generated from master key distributed in our key distribution protocol. In particular, we propose secure protocol between APs considering weakness of security in mobile environment. Based on implementation of our proposed protocol, we conform that our proposed protocols are secure from various attack methods and provide real-time authentication.

Ubiquitous electronic commerce can offer anytime, anywhere access to network and exchange convenient informations between individual and group, or between group and group. To use secure ubiquitous electronic commerce, it is essential for users to have digital signature with the properties of integrity and authentication. The digital signature for ubiquitous networks is required neither a trusted group manager, nor a setup procedure, nor a revocation procedure etc. because ubiquitous networks can construct or deconstruct groups anytime, anwhere as occasion demands. Therefore, this paper proposes a threshold ring signature as digital signature for secure ubiquitous electronic commerce using the ring signature without forgery (integrity) and the (n,t) ring signature solving the problem cannot prove the fact which a message is signed by other signer. Thus the proposed threshold ring signature is ubiquitous group signature for the next generation.

This study conducted a qualitative analysis on the Korea's nuclear energy sector in 2030 through scenario-based strategic foresight method. Specifically, the relationships between environmental influencing factors of the future nuclear energy sector was examined from a multi-dimensional perspective on the basis of STEEP analysis and network analysis. In addition, scenario planning method was used with key uncertainty factors (KUF) to create three predictable strategic scenarios including optimistic, business as usual, and pessimistic. Common strategies that need to be urgently pursued as well as the maximum risk avoidance strategies for each scenario were also presented. This study further identified energy pricing, global economic trend, competitiveness in nuclear technology, and marketing capability as key uncertainty factors in the future nuclear energy industry sector. In order to furnish effective export strategy in the future nuclear energy sector, it was also suggested that government policy should adopt following measures as top priorities: securing nuclear safety technology, educating nuclear engineers, securing nuclear resources such as uranium, increasing nuclear capability and so on. The implications and limitations of this study were then discussed based on research findings.

Recently, the need of researches and developments about WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) technologies, which can be applied to services that require continuous monitoring or services to specific areas where accesses are limited, has gradually increased due to their expansion of application areas and the improvement of the efficiency. Especially, in the defense field, researches on the latest IT technologies including sensor network areas are actively conducted as an alternative to avoid the risk factors that can be occurred when personnel are put in, such as boundary and surveillance reconnaissance and to utilize personnel efficiently. In this paper, we analyze the conditions for increasing the life span of sensing nodes that make up sensor network by applying clustering and location-based techniques and derived the factors for extending the life span of them. The derived factors include CH(Cluster Head) election scheme and optimal path selection from CH to BS(Base Station). We proposed final scheme using derived factors and verified it through simulation experiments.

During the last decade, Los Angeles Koreatown experienced unprecedented changes transforming it from an immigrant ethnic enclave into a transnational economic space. Alongside of the city government's redevelopment plans and local Korean Americans' grass-root efforts to regenerate Koreatown, transnational Korean actors have aggressively invested in property as well as business sectors. However, despite these multi-scaled geographic transitions, Koreatown remains one of the poorest and most crime-infested inner-city communities in the City of Los Angeles. This paper, based on a 'place-based' bottom-up approach, investigates contradictory geographies of Koreatown in which multi-scaled network of hegemonic transnational, urban and local development actors has developed representational, unlived economies. This research points out that the recent urban regeneration of Koreatown has not only excluded but also exploited local community members such as transnational Korean/Latino workers in the area. This paper conclusively suggests that the sustainable future of Koreatown's development would stem from place-based community consciousness that crisscrosses racial and ethnic boundaries.

In the construction of USN environment, the implementation of a safe sensor network using wireless communications can be said to be the most important factor in the entire system. Although USN communication uses wireless communications to enhance accessability and non-contact capability, this results in the security vulnerability, thus endangering the system. In this regard, we propose a security protocol that can be effectively applied to USN, a multi-sensor network. The proposed protocol is a method using an individual chaotic system, and it is a security protocol to synchronize the main chaotic system mounted on each sensor and prepared key values into the initial values, and to communicate with the use of the synchronized values as symmetric keys. The communication protocol proposed in this paper is expected to yield good results as a new method to resolve security problems of USN and program capacity limitations of sensor nodes if subsequent studies continue to be carried out.

Smart environment of health information technology, u-Healthcare architecture, ad-hoc networking and wireless communications environment are major factors that increase vulnerability of u-healthcare information systems. Traffic domain is the concept of network route that identifies the u-Healthcare information systems area as the traffic passing and security technologies application. The criterion of division is an area requiring the application of security technology. u-Healthcare information system domains are derived from the intranet section. the public switched network infrastructure, and networking sectors. Domains of health information systems are separated by domain vulnerability reason. In this study, domain-specific security vulnerability assessment system based on the USN in u-Healthcare system is derived. The model used in this study suggests how to establish more effective measurement USN-based health information network security vulnerability which has been vague until now.

우리는 지금 스마트 사회에 살아가고 있다. 언제 어디서든 스마트 디바이스를 통해 기존에 PC에서 하던 작업들을 손쉽게 하고 있다. 한편 스마트폰의 확산으로 이용자 수가 급증하고 있는 소셜네트워크 서비스(SNS)는 이용자들이 자신의 일상적인 이야기를 사이버공간에 게시함으로 인해 개인의 사생활 정보들이 노출되고, 그러한 정보들이 범죄에 악용되는 사례들이 눈에 띄게 증가하고 있다. 또한 SNS를 이용한 악성코드의 유포 및 빠른 전파 등도 새로운 보안위협으로 나타나고 있다. 그 밖에 스마트 기기를 대상으로 한 해킹 및 악성코드 감염 등 위협이 증가하고 있는 형편이다. 본고에서는 스마트 사회의 주요 보안위협을 살펴보고 미국, 유럽, 일본, 호주 등 선진국의 관련 정책 동향과 국내 정책과 실태를 분석하여 새로운 정보보호 정책 수립 방향을 제언하고자 한다. 스마트 사회 위험 요소로 가장 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 스마트폰과 스마트폰을 통해 이용되고 있는 소셜네트워크 서비스, 클라우드 서비스의 보안위협을 제기하고 최근 글로벌 이슈로 떠오르고 있는 빅 데이터 환경의 보안위협을 분석하였다. 스마트 사회의 위협을 대비하고 있는 주요국 정책을 살펴보면, 미국의 경우 사회적 합의를 바탕으로한 감시와 통제를 강화하는 정책을 추진 중에 있으며 유럽의 5개국 EU5(영국, 독일, 프랑스, 스페인, 이탈리아)는 스마트폰 위협을 중심으로 공동 대응 방안을 마련하고 있다. 일본은 스마트 워크중심의 보안대책을 강구하고 있으며 호주는 스마트 사회 보안위협에 대한 국민의 인식제고에 주력하고 있다. 국내의 경우도 스마트 사회의 보안위협에 선제적 대응을 위하여 "스마트 모바일 시큐리티 종합계획"을 수립하여 추진중에 있다. 하지만 보안 실태를 보면 스마트 사회 보안위협에 대한 이용자들의 우려는 높은 반면 기업의 보안 대책 마련에 대한 투자는 여전히 미흡한 상황이다. 향후 우리 사회가 디바이스간 융합을 넘어 모든 사물이 연결되는 초(超)연결(Hyper-Connectivity) 시대로 진화되어 가면 편리성이 증대되는 만큼 더 많은 위협에 우리의 일상이 노출되는 문제가 발생하게 될 것이다. 안전한 미래 사회로 진입하기 위해서는 보다 체계적이고 종합적인 정보보호 정책마련이 필요하다. 본고에서는 이를 위한 정책수립의 방향을 제언했다.

Domestic slope related measuring system are mainly depending on manual and visual measurements and technical development for natural slopes is poor since the technology is developed focusing on artificial cut slopes. In addition, landslide with a debris flow is occurring frequently due to recent climate abnormally and heavy rains but early forecasts and prevention of disasters are in poor condition. Therefore, construction of ubiquitous sensor network (USN) capable of detecting dangers of landslide for rapid countermeasures is necessary. In this study, new measurements devices and measurement management techniques in compliance with domestic conditions are prepared by establishing ubiquitous based landslide monitoring system and standards of measurement management.

IPSec is a protocol which provides data encryption, message authentication and data integrity on public and open network transmission. In IPSec, ESP protocol is used when it needs to provide data encryption, authentication and Integrity In real transmission packets. ESP protocol uses DES-CBC encryption mode when sender encrypts packets and receiver decrypts data through this mode IV is used at that time. This value has many tasks of attack during transmission by attacker because it is transferred clean and opened. If IV value is modified, then decryption of ESP data is impossible and higher level information is changed. In this paper we propose a new algorithm that it encrypts IV values using DES-ECB mode for preventing IV attack and checks integrity of whole ESP data using message authentication function. Therefore, we will protect attacks of IV and data, and guarantee core safe transmission on the public network.
