It is easy to reverse engineer an Android app package file(APK) and get its decompiled source code. Therefore, attackers obtains economic benefits by illegally using the decompiled source code, or modifies an app by inserting malware. To address these problems in Android, we propose an APK overwrite scheme that protects apps against illegal modification of themselves by using a new anti-reverse engineering technique. In this paper, the targets are the apps which have been written by any programmer. For a target app (original app), server system (1) makes a copy of a target app, (2) encrypts the target app, (3) creates a stub app by replacing the DEX (Dalvik Executable) of the copied version with our stub DEX, and then (4) distributes the stub app as well as the encrypted target app to users of smartphones. The users downloads both the encrypted target app and the corresponding stub app. Whenever the stub app is executed on smartphones, the stub app and our launcher app decrypt the encrypted target app, overwrite the stub app with the decrypted target one, and executes the decrypted one. Every time the target app ends its execution, the decrypted app is deleted. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, experimentation with several popular apps are carried out. The results of the experiment demonstrate that our scheme is effective for preventing reverse engineering and tampering of Android apps.

In a Web application, you can pass without restrictions special network security devices such as IPS and F/W, URL parameter, which is an important element of communication between the client and the server, is forwarded to the Web server. Parameters are modulated by an attacker requests a URL, disclose confidential information or through e-commerce, can take financial gain. Vulnerability parameter manipulation thereof cannot be able to determine whether to operate in only determined logical application, blocked with Web Application Firewall. In this paper, I will present a technique OTACUS(One-Time Access Control URL System) to complement the shortcomings of the measures existing approaches. OTACUS can be effectively blocked the modulation of the POST or GET method parameters passed to the server by preventing the exposure of the URL to the attacker by using clean URL technique simplifies complex URL that contains the parameter. Performance test results of the actual implementation OTACUS proves that it is possible to show a stable operation of less than 3% increase in the load.

In theses days, data has been explosively generated in diverse industrial areas. Accordingly, many industries want to collect and analyze these data to improve their products or services. However, collecting user data can lead to significant personal information leakage. Local differential privacy (LDP) proposed by Google is the state-of-the-art approach that is used to protect individual privacy in the process of data collection. LDP guarantees that the privacy of the user is protected by perturbing the original data at the user's side, but a data collector is still able to obtain population statistics from collected user data. However, the prevention of leakage of personal information through such data perturbation mechanism may cause the significant reduction in the data utilization. Therefore, the degree of data perturbation in LDP should be set properly depending on the data collection and analysis purposes. Thus, in this paper, we develop the simulation tool which aims to help the data collector to properly chose the degree of data perturbation in LDP by providing her/him visualized simulated results with various parameter configurations.

The purpose of this study is to study how to apply block-chain technology to prevent data forgery and alteration in the defense sector of AI(Artificial intelligence). AI is a technology for predicting big data by clustering or classifying it by applying various machine learning methodologies, and military powers including the U.S. have reached the completion stage of technology. If data-based AI's data forgery and modulation occurs, the processing process of the data, even if it is perfect, could be the biggest enemy risk factor, and the falsification and modification of the data can be too easy in the form of hacking. Unexpected attacks could occur if data used by weaponized AI is hacked and manipulated by North Korea. Therefore, a technology that prevents data from being falsified and altered is essential for the use of AI. It is expected that data forgery prevention will solve the problem by applying block-chain, a technology that does not damage data, unless more than half of the connected computers agree, even if a single computer is hacked by a distributed storage of encrypted data as a function of seawater.

현재 인터넷을 통한 상대방의 신뢰성을 보장해 주는 인증서 사용이 빈번해지고 있다. 그러나 오프라인상의 전자문서는 상대방의 신뢰성 보장과 전자문서의 위변조의 위험성이 많다. 또한 전자문서는 오프라인상의 이동성에 제악을 받게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하고, 사용자가 온라인과 오프라인에서도 사용하게 편리하도록 문서내용, 문서작성자의 인증서 그리고 전자서명값을 이차원 바코드로 변환하여 출력된 전자문서에서 상대방의 신뢰성과 문서의 무결성을 보장하도록 제안한다. 제안된 시스템에서는 문서내용, 문서작성자의 인증서, 전자서명값을 변환해 출력문서에 이차원 바코드를 첨부하게 된다. 출력된 문서에서 첨부된 이차원 바코드를 스케닝 하고 문서내용, 문서작성자의 인증서 그리고 전자서명값을 얻어오고 검증을 통해 위변조 여부 판단하여 상대방의 신뢰성과 문서의 무결성을 확인 하도록 한다.

시스템을 안정적으로 운용하기 위해서는 신뢰성 기반의 로그관리시스템이 필요하다. 모든 이력이 기록되는 로그의 위·변조를 방지하기 위해 로그 정보를 블록체인 기술로 관리하여 어떠한 상황에서도 시스템 이력을 신뢰할 수 있는 서비스를 제안한다. Hyplerledger Fabric을 사용하여 인증 관리 시스템에 의해 허가된 사용자만이 접근할 수 있다. 또한 분산원장에 한 번 기록된 로그 파일은 더 이상 수정하거나 삭제될 수 없다. 이 시스템을 활용하면 로그 파일의 위·변조 여부를 판단하는데 발생하는 시간, 비용, 불확실성을 크게 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근 인터넷을 이용한 금융거래가 활발해지면서 피싱이나 파밍과 같은 공격을 통한 개인정보 유출 사고가 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 특히 파밍의 경우, 공격자가 DNS 정보를 변조하여 사용자가 올바른 URL을 입력하더라도 악의적 사이트로 컴퓨터가 접속을 하기 때문에 위험성이 매우 높다. 이러한 공격들을 방지하기위하여 여러 연구가 진행되었지만, DNS 정보의 검증을 위한 추가적인 절차를 필요로 하거나 과도한 네트워크 트래픽을 유발할 수 있는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하고자 DNS 리소스 레코드(Resource Record)의 부분 암호화를 이용하여 DNS 변조 공격을 탐지 하는 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Smartcard is highlighted as infrastructure that has an excellent security for executing functions such as user authentication, access control, information storage and control, and its market is expanding rapidly. But possibilities of forgery and alteration by hacking are increasing as well. This paper proposes a method to prevent card forgery and alteration using angular multiplexing and private key multiplexing method on optical encryption, and proposed a Public Key Infrastructure(PKI)-based authentication system combined with One-Time Password (OTP) for verification of forgery and alteration .
