Computational creativity is a field of artificial intelligence research to replicate creativity of human beings, creating works in various fields or helping human authors. The copyright of works produced by computational creativity has not been established in most countries yet, however, there will be the need for systems to protect the copyrights with the development of the technology in the future. In this paper, we propose a copyright protection system based on blockchain technology that protects the copyright of various contributors contributing to the creation of computer creative creativity, and transparently and safely records the contribution of copyrighted works. The proposed system records the contribution of all related works from the machine learning of computer creativity to the creation of the final work on the blockchain so that it is possible to establish quantitative evaluation criteria for the copyright when the future copyright law system is revised.

Blockchain is a technology that directly connects each node to P2P method, except for the central server. A public blockchain is one of the blockchain types, anyone can participate without any restriction. If some node find nonce, which node can broadcasted data to all nodes. At this time, if a node that finds a nonce hides malicious code in the block, all nodes participating in the chain may be infected with malicious code due to the characteristics of the decentralization system of the blockchain. In this paper, to solve the problem that hackers can participate as an any node, we propose that a user with malicious intent can not participate as a node through a firewall with AI technology. This will improve the reliability of the propagated data over existing data.

In this paper, a new approach to building a registration authority for issuing PKI-based certificates is presented to make the process of identifying an individual more secure and reliable by utilizing human iris recognition technology. The tasks of the proposed system associated with the manipulation of irises except for the general functions of registration authorities can be categorized into three modules, the acquisition of iris images, the registration of iris information, and the verification of users by means of iris patterns. The information among the three modules is safely exchanged through encryption and decryption with a symmetric cryptographic method. As a feature extraction method for a given iris image, a wavelet transform is applied to represent a feature vector with a small dimension of information obtained by subsampling an image corresponding to lower frequency bands successively without loss of information. Through the experiments on human iris recognition technology we proposed and applied to the registration authority, the potential of biometric technology in various applications is confirmed.

With the widely applications of tactical radio networks, end-to-end secure speech communication in the heterogeneous network has become a very significant security issue. High-grade end-to-end speech security can be achieved using encryption algorithms at user ends. However, the use of encryption techniques results in a problem that encrypted speech data cannot be directly transmitted over heterogeneous tactical networks. That is, the decryption and re-encryption process must be fulfilled at the gateway between two different networks. In this paper, in order to solve this problem and to achieve optimal end-to-end speech security for heterogeneous tactical environments, we propose a novel mechanism for end-to-end secure speech transmission over ultra high frequency (UHF) and public switched telephone network (PSTN) and evaluate against the performance of conventional mechanism. Our proposed mechanism has advantages of no decryption and re-encryption at the gateway, no processing delay at the gateway, and good inter-operability over UHF and PSTN.

The purpose of this study is to explore the trend of blockchain technology through analysis of patents and news articles using text mining, and to suggest the blockchain policy agenda by grasping social interests. For this purpose, 327 blockchain-related patent abstracts in Korea and 5,941 full-text online news articles were collected and preprocessed. 12 patent topics and 19 news topics were extracted with latent dirichlet allocation topic modeling. Analysis of patents showed that topics related to authentication and transaction accounted were largely predominant. Analysis of news articles showed that social interests are mainly concerned with cryptocurrency. Policy agendas were then derived for blockchain development. This study demonstrates the efficient and objective use of an automated technique for the analysis of large text documents. Additionally, specific policy agendas are proposed in this study which can inform future policy-making processes.

Recently, users' interest in IoT related products is increasing as the 4th industrial revolution has become social. The types and functions of sensors used in IoT devices are becoming increasingly diverse, and mutual authentication technology of IoT devices is required. In this paper, we propose an efficient double signature authentication scheme using Pascal's triangle theory so that different types of IoT devices can operate smoothly with each other. The proposed scheme divides the authentication path between IoT devices into two (main path and auxiliary path) to guarantee authentication and integrity of the IoT device. In addition, the proposed scheme is suitable for IoT devices that require a small capacity because they generate keys so that additional encryption algorithms are unnecessary when authenticating IoT devices. As a result of the performance evaluation, the delay time of the IoT device is improved by 6.9% and the overhead is 11.1% lower than that of the existing technique. The throughput of IoT devices was improved by an average of 12.5% over the existing techniques.

Recently, the development of cloud computing technology is developed as soon as smartphones is increases, and increased that users want to receive big data service. Hadoop framework of the big data service is provided to hadoop file system and hadoop mapreduce supported by data-intensive distributed applications. But, smpartphone service using hadoop system is a very vulnerable state to data authentication. In this paper, we propose a initial authentication protocol of hadoop system assisted by smartphone service. Proposed protocol is combine symmetric key cryptography techniques with ECC algorithm in order to support the secure multiple data processing systems. In particular, the proposed protocol to access the system by the user Hadoop when processing data, the initial authentication key and the symmetric key instead of the elliptic curve by using the public key-based security is improved.

One of the main reasons for the commercial failure of various early blockchain-based art trade platforms, including Maecenas, is the lack of clear ways for owners to fully restore ownership of artworks. In this paper, we proposed a procedure for the owner of the artwork to rebuy shares and restore his or her entire ownership in the blockchain system. Using the proposed procedure, we can find a balanced price between the owner and investors, and then restore ownership through a public purchase of the stake. The balanced price can be induced by penalizing the owner for proposing unreasonably low price, and by rewarding investors for deciding reasonable prices. The proposed procedure of restoring ownership is expected to be utilized not only on the block chain-based art trading platform but also on the block chain-based trade platform in other applications.

This paper deals with the biometric template protection in the biometric system which has been widely used for personal authentication. First, we consider the structure of the biometric system and the function of its sub-systems and define the biometric template and identification(ID) information. And then, we describe the biometric template attack points of a biometric system and attack examples and provide their countermeasures. From this, we classify the vulnerability which can be protected by encryption and hashing techniques. For more detail investigation of these at real operating situations, we analyze them and suggest several protection methods for the typical application scheme of biometric systems such as local model, download model, attached model, and center model. Finally, we also handle the privacy problem which is most controversy issue related to the biometric systems and suggest some guidances of safeguarding procedures on establishing privacy sympathy biometric systems.

As various IoT devices appear recently, Cloud Services such as DropBox, Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure Storage, etc are widely use for data sharing across the devices. Although, cryptographic algorithms like AES is prevalently used for data security, there is no mechanisms to allow selectively and flexibly use wider spectrum of lightweight cryptographic algorithms such as LEA, SEED, ARIA. With this, IoT devices with lower computation power and limited battery life will suffer from overly expensive workload and cryptographic operations are slower than what is enough. In this paper, we designed and implemented a CloudGate that allows client programs of those cloud services to flexibly select a cryptographic algorithms depending on the required security level. By selectively using LEA lightweight algorithms, we could achieve the cryptographic operations could be maximum 1.8 faster and more efficient than using AES.
