Recently, many domestic and foreign corporates are concentrating in investment to wearable devices and users are provided with various service based on wearable devices 26% more than compared to last year. It is widely used in previous healthcare, smart work, smart home environment, and it is now introduced to get connection to fused service environment. However, as products of G company are commercialized, the security issue of personal information is causing dispute in society, and the danger of data management and security regarding telecommunication is increasing. Also, because the password system used in previous wireless environment is still in use, there are possible vulnerability considering the new and mutant security threat. This thesis conducted study about protocols that can exercise safe telecommunication in the basis of wearable devices. In the registration and certification process, the signature value is created based on the code value. The telecommunication method is designed to conduct safe telecommunication based on the signature value. As for the attack method occurring in the wearable device environment, the safety was analyzed and conducted performance evaluation of previous password system and proposal system, and verified about 14% of efficiency.

DDoS attack has been continuously utilized that caused the excessively large amount of traffic that network bandwidth or server was unable to deal with paralyzing the service. Most of the people regard NTP as the biggest cause of DDoS. However, according to recently executed DDoS attack, there have been many SSDP attack in the use of amplified technique. According to characteristics of SSDP, there is no connection for making a forgery of source IP address and amplified resources feasible. Therefore, it is frequently used for attack. Especially, as it is mostly used as a protocol for causing DDoS attack on IoT devices that constitute smart home including a wireless router, media server, webcam, smart TV, and network printer. Hereupon, it is anticipated for servers of attacks to gradually increase. This might cause a serious threat to major information of human lives, major government bodies, and company system as well as on IoT devices. This study is intended to identify DDoS attack techniques in the use of weakness of SSDP protocol occurring in IoT devices and attacking scenario and counter-measures on them.

In this paper, we propose the terminal authentication system using blockchain and TOTP(Time-based One-time Password Algorithm) to sustain a continuous authentication between user device and service device. And we experiment this system by using door-lock as a terminal of IoT(Internet of Things). In the future, we can apply this result to several devices of IoT for convenience and security. Although IoT devices frequently used everyday require convenience and security at the same time, it is difficult for IoT devices having features of the low-capacity and light-weight to apply the existing authentication technology requiring a high amount of computation. Blockchain technology having security and integrity have been used as a storage platform, but its authentication cannot be performed when the terminal cannot access any network. We show the method to solve this problem using Blockchain and TOPT.

This paper is analyzing the situation of the Internet of Things Industry and draw the policy implications to promote Internet of Things industry. Major IT companies as Apple, Google, IBM, Sony, and Samsung have developed various smart glass and smart watch as a Iot products. In order to promote Iot Industry, we should take the build up of eco system between IT makers and the various contents provider, protection of personal information and data, development of killer applications and business models, and the conversion from IPv4 to IPv6 as a next internet address infra, build up of international standard platform on IoT.

As vehicle started to contain many different communication devices, collecting external information became possible in IoT environment. In such environment, remotely controling vehicle is possible when vehicle information is obtained by looking in to vehicle network through smart device. However, android based smart device applications are vulnerable to malicious modulation and redistribution. Modulated android application can lead to vehicle information disclosure that could bring about vehicle control accident which becomes threat to drivers. furthermore, since vehicles today does not contain security methods to protect it, they are very vulnerable to security threats which can cause serious damage to users and properties. In this paper, many different vehicle management android applications that are sold in Google Play has been analyzed. With this information, possible threats that could happen in vehicle management applications are being analysed to prove the risks. the experiment is done on actual vehicle to prove the risks. Also, access control method to protect the vehicle against malicious actions that could happen through external network in IoT environment is suggested in the paper.

This paper is about the study to build a quantitative methodology to assess cyber threats and vulnerabilities on control systems. The SCADA system in power industry is one of the most representative and biggest control systems. The SCADA system was originally a local system but it has been extended to wide area as both ICT and power system technologies evolve. Smart Grid is a concept to integrate energy and IT systems, and therefore the existing cyber threats might be infectious to the power system in the integration process. Power system is operated on a real time basis and this could make the power system more vulnerable to the cyber threats. It is a unique characteristic of power systems different from ICT systems. For example, availability is the most critical factor while confidentiality is the one from the CIA triad of IT security. In this context, it is needed to reflect the different characteristics to assess cyber security risks in power systems. Generally, the risk(R) is defined as the multiplication of threat(T), vulnerability(V), and asset(A). This formula is also used for the quantification of the risk, and a conceptual methodology is proposed for the objective in this study.

As a next-generation communication technology, 5G networks are capable of handling large amounts of traffic based on higher speeds, shorter communication delays, and higher connectivity compared to 4G networks. In this 5G network environment, base stations are installed all over the city at high density due to their characteristics, and are connected to user terminals to provide services. Therefore, if the base station is damaged by a malicious attacker, it is expected to cause great damage to users and society as a whole. So the need for secure communication equipment such as 5G base stations has emerged. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the security functional requirements derived using threat modeling, a systematic methodology for 5G base stations, and the security assurance requirements at the level that can cope with the backdoor issues. The security requirements proposed in this paper can be used for base station design and development to construct a secure network environment as a security evaluation standard for 5G base stations.

In this paper, we propose the efficient Second-Order Differential Power Analysis attack, which has ability to find significant information such as secret key in the devices consisting IT convergence environment such as Smartgrid, Advanced Metering Infrastructure(AMI) and ZigBee-based home networking service. This method helps to find the secret key easily at a device, even though it uses a countermeasure like masking which makes First-Order DPA attack harder. First, we present the performance results of our implementation which implements practical Second-Order DPA attack using the existing preprocessing function, and analyze it. Then we propose a stronger preprocessing function which overcomes countermeasures like masking. Finally, we analyze the results of the Second-Order CPA attack using proposed preprocessing function and verify that proposed scheme is very threatening to the security fields of IT convergence technology through the experimental results.
