With the popularization of smart phones and the development of the Internet, many people use smart phones to conduct identity verification procedures. smart phones are easier and faster to authenticate than personal desktop computers. However, as Internet hacking technology and malicious code distribution technology rapidly evolve and attack types become more diverse, authentication methods suitable for mobile environment are required. As authentication methods, there are methods such as possessive-based authentication, knowledge-based authentication, biometric-based authentication, pattern-based authentication, and multi-element authentication. In this paper, we propose a user authentication mechanism that uses collected information as authentication factor using smart phone. Using the proposed authentication mechanism, it is possible to use the smart phone information and environment information of the user as a hidden authentication factor, so that the authentication process can be performed without being exposed to others. We implemented the user authentication system using the proposed authentication mechanism and evaluated the effectiveness based on applicability, convenience, and security.

In a distributed network system, Kerberos certification mechanism is operated by a user in local area on the premise reliability of Kerberos server in another area. But it has a demerit. If security information of certification server between Kerberos servers is released, Kerberos server can not guarantee the reliability. To solve this problem, the proposed mechanism prevents password speculating attack by increasing the random of password certifier through use of distributed password in stead of certification center and certification which was presented by existing Kerberos mechanism. Besides, it used password based certification method which uses secret distributed technique

User authentication is an essential component for secure home network service. It enables authorized persons to use the home network. Using of various authentication methods provides user convenience. To add to this, using of home gateway included of authentication server function enables that once users are authenticated in the home gateway, the users user all authorized home network service. It is possible by authentication agent of home gateway. This paper describes user authentication mechanism using authentication server.

안전한 통신을 위해 단말기 간에 인증이 제공되어야 하는데 MANET 환경에서는 무선 환경이라는 특징으로 보안상 취약하고, 중앙단말기의 부재로 인해 인증을 제공하는 것에 어려움이 있다. 이러한 어려움을 해결하기 위한 많은 기법 중에 단말기 간의 구조를 Local로 나누어 인증 서비스를 제공하는 Localized Certification Service가 있다. 본 논문에서는 Localized Certification Service을 상에서 Threshold Secret Sharing을 이용한 인증 메커니즘을 제안한다. 또한 제안한 메커니즘은 CGA의 재생성 후 재발급 문제 역시 해결하게 된다. 본 논문에 결론에서는 제안한 방식을 다양한 위협 시나리오에 적용하여 위협에도 안전한 인증을 제공함을 보였다.

Authentication and authorization are essential functions for the security of distributed network environment. Authorization is determining and to decide whether a user or process is permitted to perform a particular operation. In this paper, we design an authorization mechanism to make a system more effective with Kerberos for authentication mechanism. In the authorization mechanism, Kerberos server operates proxy privilege server. Proxy privilege server manages and permits right of users, servers and services with using proposed algorithm. Also, privilege attribute certificate issued by proxy privilege server is used in delegation. We designed secure kerberos with proposed functions for effective authorization at the same time authentication of Kerberos mechanism.

The OSGi service platform has several characteristics as in the followings. First, the service is deployed in the form of self-installable component called service bundle. Second, the service is dynamic according to its life-cycle and has interactions with other services. Third, the system resources of a home gateway are restricted. Due to these characteristics of a home gateway, there are a lot of rooms for malicious services can be Installed, and further, the nature of service can be changed. It is possible for those service bundles to influence badly on service gateways and users. However, there is no service bundle authentication mechanism considering those characteristics for the home gateway In this paper, we propose a service bundle authentication mechanism considering those characteristics for the home gateway environment. We design the mechanism for sharing a key which transports a service bundle safely in bootstrapping step that recognize and initialize equipments. And we propose the service bundle authentication mechanism based on MAC that use a shared secret created in bootstrapping step. Also we verify the safety of key sharing mechanism and service bundle authentication mechanism using a BAN Logic. This service bundle authentication mechanism Is more efficient than PKI-based service bundle authentication mechanism or RSH protocol in the service platform which has restricted resources such as storage spaces and operations.

The explosive growth in wireless networking increasingly urges the demand to support mobility within the Internet which is what Mobile-IP aims to provide. Because the transmission of signals through open-air s easy to be attacked, it is important to provide secure transmission for mobile users and make them responsible for what they have done in networks. Although IETF provides a secret-key based security mechanism, those mechanisms suffer from scalability, efficiency and non-repudiation service problem. The proposed mechanism uses public-key based authentication optimizing the performance. It includes non-repudiation service on the side of mobile for airtight security in wireless network. The simulation results show that the proposed authentication reduces the total registration time. It especially minimizes the computation cost on the side of the mobile node and solves the power problem. In practice, the proposed authentication is feasible with reasonable performance and security service in macro mobility that Mobile-IP is intended to solve.

현재 XML은 데이터의 표현에 있어서 가장 유연하고 독립성 있는 언어로 자리잡고 있으며 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 이러한 추세에 따라 OSGi 서비스 플랫폼 환경에서도 여러 서비스들이 자신의 데이터를 XML로 표현하고 있으며, 이를 기반으로 서비스 번들의 인증을 XML 전자 서명을 생성하여 수행할 수 있다. 현재 OSGi 에서는 PKI기반 서비스 번들 인중 메커니즘을 이용하고 RSH 프로토콜을 권고하고 있다. 그러나 저장 공간이나 연산이 제한된 환경에 있는 OSGi플랫폼 내에서 작동하는 데에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 JAR파일로 제공되는 서비스 번들에 대해 별도의 연산이나 인증과정 없이 XML 전자서명을 생성하여 서비스 번들을 인증하는 메커니즘을 제시한다.

In IEEE 802.15.4 (Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) specification, a successful reception and validation of a data or MAC command frame can be confirmed with an acknowledgment. However, the specification does not support security for acknowledgment frame; the lack of a MAC covering acknowledgments allows an adversary to forge an acknowledgment for any frame. This paper proposes an identity authentication mechanism at the link layer for acknowledgment frame in IEEE 802.15.4 network. With the proposed mechanism there is only three bits for authentication, which can greatly reduce overhead of device. The encrypted bit stream for identity authentication will be transmitted to device by coordinator within association process. Statistical method and simulation results prove that our mechanism is successful in handling MAC layer attack.

Recently 'Banking IC Card Standard' and EMV Standard by the domestic standard is selected, and it is situation that is developing infrastructure vigorously to alternate Magnetic Stripe card by IC card. This paper analyzes EMV standard that is selecting public key cipher, and research wishes to study unexhausted EMV PKI relatively than internet PKI, WAP PKI etc. This paper propose utilizable EMV base Payment PKI model in IC card base payment system development, and developed EMV CA system with this. Also, this paper supplemented IC card Authentication mechanism that is defined in EMV standard, and propose 'Efficient smart card Authentication mechanism' to improve performance of this mechanism, and estimate performance.
