This paper describes a design of a lightweight security system-on-chip (SoC) suitable for the implementation of security protocols for IoT and mobile devices. The security SoC using Cortex-M0 as a CPU integrates hardware crypto engines including an elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) core, a SHA3 hash core, an ARIA-AES block cipher core and a true random number generator (TRNG) core. The ECC core was designed to support twenty elliptic curves over both prime field and binary field defined in the SEC2, and was based on a word-based Montgomery multiplier in which the partial product generations/additions and modular reductions are processed in a sub-pipelining manner. The H/W-S/W co-operation for elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (EC-DSA) protocol was demonstrated by implementing the security SoC on a Cyclone-5 FPGA device. The security SoC, synthesized with a 65-nm CMOS cell library, occupies 193,312 gate equivalents (GEs) and 84 kbytes of RAM.

This paper describes an integrated H/W-S/W implementation of elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (EC-DSA) using a security system-on-chip (SoC). The security SoC uses the Cortex-A53 APU as CPU, and the hardware IPs of high-performance elliptic curve cryptography (HP-ECC) core and SHA3 (secure hash algorithm 3) hash function core are interfaced via AXI4-Lite bus protocol. The signature generation and verification processes of EC-DSA were verified by the implementation of the security SoC on a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device.

This paper describes an implementation of a security SoC (System-on-Chip) prototype that interfaces a microprocessor with a block cipher crypto-core. The Cortex-M0 was used as a microprocessor, and a crypto-core implemented by integrating ARIA and AES into a single hardware was used as an intellectual property (IP). The integrated ARIA-AES crypto-core supports five modes of operation including ECB, CBC, CFB, CTR and OFB, and two master key sizes of 128-bit and 256-bit. The integrated ARIA-AES crypto-core was interfaced to work with the AHB-light bus protocol of Cortex-M0, and the crypto-core IP was expected to operate at clock frequencies up to 50 MHz. The security SoC prototype was verified by BFM simulation, and then hardware-software co-verification was carried out with FPGA implementation.

A security SoC that can be used to implement elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) based public-key infrastructures was designed. The security SoC has an architecture in which a hardware accelerator for the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) is interfaced with the Cortex-A53 CPU using the AXI4-Lite bus. The ECDSA hardware accelerator, which consists of a high-performance ECC processor, a SHA3 hash core, a true random number generator (TRNG), a modular multiplier, BRAM, and control FSM, was designed to perform the high-performance computation of ECDSA signature generation and signature verification with minimal CPU control. The security SoC was implemented in the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device to perform hardware-software co-verification, and it was evaluated that the ECDSA signature generation or signature verification can be achieved about 1,000 times per second at a clock frequency of 150 MHz. The ECDSA hardware accelerator was implemented using hardware resources of 74,630 LUTs, 23,356 flip-flops, 32kb BRAM, and 36 DSP blocks.

본 논문에서는 Whirlpool 해시 코어가 Cortex-M0의 슬레이브로 인터페이스된 보안 SoC 프로토타입 구현에 대해 기술한다. ISO/IEC에서 표준으로 채택된 경량 해시 알고리듬인 Whirlpool 해시 함수를 64-비트의 데이터 패스로 구현하였으며, 키 확장 연산과 암호화 연산을 수행하는 하드웨어를 공유하여 면적이 최소화되도록 설계하였다. 설계된 보안 SoC 프로토타입을 Cyclone-V FPGA에 구현한 후, ULINK2 어댑터와 Cortex 내부 디버거를 통해 Whirlpool 해시 코어에서 연산된 해시값을 확인함으로써 SoC 프로토타입의 동작을 확인했다.

Recently many company has been cracked by crackers information security and everyday new computer virus come out. so e-trade partners should prevent the disasters. A few studies researched e-trade securities broadly but the new trend in information security division especially focused on electronic payment, EDI, Transportation, Contracts, Insurances and that of subjects have been researched through interdisciplinary evolution. Our research e-trade security on three part, First system attack, second is data attack and third is business attack. the attacks have theirs own solution, so e-trade company use this solution timely and powerfully. It is the most important thing to prepare the cracking with securities system. also manager should catch recent hacking technologies. The research results propose that e-trade firms should use information security policies and securities systems that including H/W and S/W. therefore manager's security mind is very important and also using electronic commerce securities device and should be considered exploiting solutions by each special usage according to e-trade company' environments.

Attackers collect vulnerabilities of a target computer system to intrude into it. And using several attack methods, they acquire root privilege. They steal and alter information in the computer system, or destroy the computer sysem. So far many intrusion detection systems and firewallshave been developed, but recently attackers go round these systems and intrude into a computer system . In this paper, we propose security kernel module to prevent attackers having acquired root privilege from doing illegal behaviors. It enhances administrator authentication with additional password, so prevents attackers from doing illegal behaviors such as modification of important files and installation of rootkits. It sends warning mail about sttacker's illegal behaviors to administrators by real time. So using information in the mail, they can estabilish new security policies.

US is strengthening the information security by managing federal agency's information and information system systematically. For this purpose. US government put the Federal Information Security Management Act into the E Government Act of 2002. According to the FISMA, it is required to have information securitv management plan for all federal agencies. In addition that, OMB Circular A II requires all federal agencies to identity the ratio of information security investment. That is the basis of strengthening the information security of federal agency, This paper will compare the budget status and information security mechanism of Korea and US.

This paper describes a design of security system-on-chip (SoC) that integrates a Cortex-M0 CPU with an AAW (ARIA-AES- Whirlpool) crypto-core which implements two block cipher algorithms of ARIA and AES and a hash function Whirlpool into an unified hardware architecture. The AAW crypto-core was implemented in a small area through hardware sharing based on algorithmic characteristics of ARIA, AES and Whirlpool, and it supports key sizes of 128-bit and 256-bit. The designed security SoC was implemented on FPGA device and verified by hardware-software co-operation. The AAW crypto-core occupied 5,911 slices, and the AHB_Slave including the AAW crypto-core was implemented with 6,366 slices. The maximum clock frequency of the AHB_Slave was estimated at 36 MHz, the estimated throughputs of the ARIA-128 and the AES-128 was 83 Mbps and 78 Mbps respectively, and the throughput of the Whirlpool hash function of 512-bit block was 156 Mbps.
