An authenticated group key agreement protocol allows a group of parties communicating over an insecure network to share a common secret key. In this paper, we show that Zhou et al.'s ID-based authenticated group key agreement schemes do not provide forward secrecy.

무선 이동 Ad hoc 네트워크는 고정된 인프라의 도움 없이 이동 노드들의 협력에 의해 자율적으로 구성되는 독립적이고 융통성 있는 네트워크이다. 최근 상업적인 분야에서도 Ad hoc 네트워크의 응용에 대한 관심이 급증하면서 Ad hoc 네트워크의 보안 문제도 해결되어야 할 기술적 요구사항으로 대두되고 있다. 특히, 이러한 요구사항을 만족시키기 위해 Ad hoc 네트워크상에서 공개키 기반구조(PKI)를 도입하는 것은 고정된 인프라를 사용하지 않는 애드혹 네트워크 특성상 매우 제한적인 기법이다. 또한 password를 기반으로 하는 인증된 키교환을 하기위해서는 모든 사용자가 사전에 password를 공유를 해야 하는 불편함이 있다. 본 논문에서는 인증을 위한 제 3의 신뢰기관이나, 사전 비밀 공유가 필요 없는 인증된 키교환 프로토콜을 제안한다.

In this paper, proposes Kerberos certification mechanism that improve certification service of PKINIT base that announce in IETF CAT Working Group. Bid to certificate other realm because search position of outside realm through DNS and apply X.509 directory certification system, acquire public key from DNS server by chain (CertPath) between realms by certification and Key exchange way that provide service between realms applying X.509, DS/DNS of PKINIT base. In order to provide regional services, Certification and key exchange between realms use Kerberos symmetric method and Session connection used Directory service to connection X.509 is designed using an asymmetric method. By efficient TGT (Ticket Granting Ticket) exchange and reusability of ticket, A Design of Kerberos system that have effect and simplification of certification formality that reduce overload on communication.

A number of three party key exchange protocols using smart card in effort to reduce server side workload and two party password based key exchange authentication protocols has been proposed. In this paper, we introduce the survey and analysis on security vulnerability of smart card based three party authenticated key exchange protocols. Furthermore, we analyze Kwak et al's password based key exchange and authentication protocols which have shown security weakness such as Shim et al's off-line password guessing attack and propose the countermeasure to deter such attack.

This paper suggests One-time Password key exchange authentication technique for a strong authentication based on MANET and through identify wireless environment security vulnerabilities, analyzes current authentication techniques. The suggested authentication technique consists of 3 steps: Routing, Registration, and Running. The Routing step sets a safe route using AODV protocol. The Registration and Running step apply the One-time password S/key and the DH-EKE based on the password, for source node authentication. In setting the Session key for safe packet transmission and data encryption, the suggested authentication technique encrypts message as H(pwd) verifiers, performs key exchange and utilizes One time password for the password possession verification and the efficiency enhancement. EKE sets end to end session key using the DH-EKE in which it expounds the identifier to hash function with the modula exponent. A safe session key exchange is possible through encryption of the H(pwd) verifier. The suggested authentication technique requires exponentiation and is applicable in the wireless network environment because it transmits data at a time for key sharing, which proves it is a strong and reliable authentication technique based on the complete MANET.

Password authenticated key exchange protocols for the symmetric model are easier to design, analyze and are more efficient than ones for the asymmetric model, but they are most likely to be broken by server's compromise. Though the protocols with provable security for the asymmetric model such as PAK-X and SNAPI-X are introduced, they need large amount of computation compared with the standard Diffie-Hellman key exchange. We present a systematic and efficient way to transform password authenticated key exchange protocols for the symmetric model into protocols for the asymmetric model. Thus, an efficient protocol for the asymmetric model can be constructed by a systematic protocol with low computation.

IPsec is a protocol suite to protect the data communication between computers on internet and many VPNs(Virtual Private Networks) use IPsec protocol. IKE protocol is used to exchange keys in IPsec. Formal analysis method is used increasingly in computer science to increase the reliability of a system. In this paper, the IKE protocol is analyzed formally. This paper shows that IKE with Authentication with Signature and Authentication with Pre-Shared Key is safe, but Authentication with Public Key Encryption and A Revised Method of Authentication with Public Key Encryption are safe only with the assumption that a participant has the correct public key of the correspondent. To make sure that a participant has the correct public key of the correspondent, the usage of certificate is recommended.

This paper analyzes spam threats and proposes key exchange scheme for user authentication and SDP encryption to protect potential spam threats in SIP-based VoIP services. The existing HTTP digest authentication scheme exchanges many message because challenge is sent for every establishment of the session and doesn't provide a confidentiality of SDP. To protect SPIT, our scheme exchanges initial nonce and a session master key for authentication and SDP encryption during registration. In our scheme, the challenge and response procedure is not necessary and the communication overhead is much less than applying S/MIME or TLS.

User authentication and key exchange protocols are the most important cryptographic applications. For user authentication, most protocols are based on the users' secret passwords. However, protocols based on the users' secret passwords are vulnerable to the password guessing attack. In 1992, Bellovin and Merritt proposed an EKE(Encrypted Key Exchange) protocol for user authentication and key exchage that is secure against password guessing attack. After that, many enhanced and secure EKE protocols are proposed so far. In 2006, Lo pointed out that Yeh et al.'s password-based authenticated key exchange protocol has a security weakness and proposed an improved protocol. However, Cao and Lin showed that his protocol is also vulnerable to off-line password guessing attack. In this paper, we show his protocol is vulnerable to on-line password guessing attack using new attack method, and propose an improvement of password authenticated key exchange protocol for imbalanced wireless networks secure against password guessing attack.
