As the ad hoc networks have been received a great deal of attention to not only the military but also the industry applications, some security mechanisms are required for implementing a practical ad hoc application. In this paper, we propose a security architecture in ad hoc networks for the purpose of supporting ID-based public key cryptosystems because of the advantage that ID-based schemes require less complex infrastructure compared with the traditional public key cryptosystems. We assume a trusted key generation center which only issues a private key derived from IDs of every nodes in the system setup phase, and use NIL(Node ID List) and NRL(Node Revocation List) in order to distribute the information about IDs used as public keys in our system. Furthermore, we propose a collaborative status checking mechanism that is performed by nodes themselves not by a central server in ad-hoc network to check the validity of the IDs.

The IEEE 802.1x standard provides an architectural framework which can be used various authentication methods. But, IEEE 802.1x also has vulnerabilities about the DoS, the session hijacking and the Man in the Middle attack due to the absence of AP authentication. In this paper, we propose a WLAN secure system which can offer a robust secure communication and a user authentications with the IEEE 802.1x framework. The user authentication on the WLAN secure system accomplishes mutual authentications between authentication severs, clients and the AP using PKI and prevents an illegal user from intervening in communication to disguise oneself as a client, the AP or authentication servers. Also, we guarantee the safety of the communication by doing secure communication between clients and the AP by the Dynamic WEP key distribution.

Recently, in the field of next-generation e-commerce and finance, interest in blockchain-based technologies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum is great. Although the security of blockchain technology is known to be secure, hacking incidents / accidents related to cryptocurrencies are being issued. The main causes were vulnerabilities in the external environment, such as taking over login sessions on cryptocurrency wallets, exposing private keys due to malware infection, and using simple passwords. However, private key management recommends general methods such as utilizing a dedicated application or local backup and physical archiving through document printing. In this paper, we propose a white box password-based private key protection scheme. As a result of safety and performance analysis, we strengthened the security against vulnerability of private key exposure and proved the processing efficiency of existing protocol.

Recently, as the personal computers are supplied rapidly, they formed the nucleus of the computer system. But, because of the easiness that anyone uses them to go near easily, it is the fact that the security of personal computer is weakness. So, in the paper, 1 propose the technical method that minimizes the loss and leakage of important data. This paper implemented a crypto system for security of data file on personal computer and assistance storage medium. The way of encryption/decryption is applied by complexity method which mixed Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, a typical RC4(Rivest Cipher version 4) algorithm of stream cipher and a typical MD5(Message Digest version 5) of Hash Function. For valuation implemented crypto system, three criteria is presented, which are crypto complexity, processing time and pattern matching. And according to analysis the three criteria the crypto system is verified the security, efficiency and usefulness. The crypto system is programmed with Visual C++ language of Microsoft. And so, as this is software system, we shall have a technical security system at a minimum cost for all personal computer.

WWW has taken root in Internet as a means of future shopping.But paymetn systems using tpdays show us several security vnlnerabilities.The problem that plain shpter's credit card details are transferred in Internet is included.Thnese risks can break out not only an infringement of pribate information but also economic crime.To solve these risks,we introduce the techique which implrment the encrypted WWW communication using PGP.And we propose SCCP which is new electronic payment protocol.As a result of testing with criteria from IBM,we can find that SCCP is safe and secure electronic payment protocol.As a result of testing with criteria from IBM,we can find that SCCP is safe and secure elctronic payment protocol.

Private Matching is a problem of computing the intersection of private datasets of two parties. One could envision the usage of private matching for Insurance fraud detection system, Do-not-fly list, medical databases, and many other applications. In 2004, Freedman et at. [1] introduced a probabilistic solution for this problem, and they extended it to malicious adversary model and multi-party computation. In this paper, we propose a new deterministic protocol for private matching with perfect correctness. We apply this technique to adversary models, achieving more reliable and higher speed computation.

IPsec refers to a standardized set of security protocols and algorithms which can provide the integrity, the authentication and the confidentiality services for IP packets in the Internet. Between two security gateways, IPsec provides the access control, the connectionless Integrity, data origin authentication, the anti-replay, and the confidentiality services, not only to the IP layer but also to the upper layers. In this paper, we describe a VPN (Virtual Private Network) testbed configuration using the FreeS/WAN and analyze the ISAKMP messages exchanged between the linux security gateway during the IKE SA setup. Also, we describe our development of an IPSEC encryption verification tool which can be used conveniently by VPN administrators.

Development of an efficient and secure payment system is prerequisite for the construction of electronic payment mechanism in mobile environment. Since current PayWord protocol system generates vendor's certificate for each transaction, it requires lot of operation for transaction. In this paper, we use a session key generated by ID-based tripartite Key agreement protocol which use an Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem over finite field $F_{q}$ for transactions. Therefore, our protocol reduces algorithm operations. In particular, proposed protocol using ID-based public key cryptosystem has the advantages over the existing systems in speed and it is more secure in Man-in-the-middle attacks and Forward secrecy.

The existing certificate based authentication or identification just verifies whether the owner of private key corresponding to public key of certificate is the DN user set in the user field in the certificate or not, then we cannot find out who is the actual private key owner in a real world. To make up for this weak points, the method to insert the identification number like the resident registration number into the certificate extension field is applied as a technical standard to current domestic PKI system. In this paper, we propose the ECC based integrated identification, identification number checking and key management protocol providing user validation during the login.

The two factor authentication capability, private key possession and key protection password knowledge, and the strong public key cryptography protocol of PKI authentication have largely contributed to the rapid construction of Internet transaction trusted infrastructure. The reusability of a certificate-based identity for every PKI site was another contribution factor of the spread of PKI authentication. Nevertheless, the PKI authentication has been criticised mainly for the cost of PKI construction, inconvenience of individual certificate management, and difficulties of password management. Recently FIDO authentication has received high attention as an alternative of the PKI authentication. The FIDO authentication is also based on the public key cryptography which provides strong authentication services, but it does not require individual certificate issuance and provides user-friendly and secure authentication services by integrating biometric technologies. The purpose of this paper is to concretely compare the PKI-authentication and FIDO-authentication and, based on the analysis result, to propose their corresponding applications.
