Designing efficient and secure electronic payment is important for M-Commerce. In this paper, we propose an efficient Micro-payment protocol that allows multiple transactions using ID-based public key encryption-system. The proposed payword system requires to generate authenticated key generated by Weil-pairing which uses an elliptic curve cryptosystem over finite field Fq for transactions. Therefore, it is more secure in known key attacks as well as man-in-the middle attacks.

Public Key Broadcast Encryption (PKBE) allows a sender to distribute a message to a changing set of users over an insecure channel. PKBE schemes should be able to dynamically exclude (i.e., revoke) a certain subset of users from decrypting a ciphertext, so that only remaining users can decrypt the ciphertext. Another important requirement is for the scheme to be forward-secrecy. A forward-secure PKBE (fs-PKBE) enables each user to update his private key periodically. This updated private key prevents an adversary from obtain the private key for certain past period, which property is particularly needed for pay-TV systems. In this paper, we present a fs-PKBE scheme where both ciphertexts and private keys are of $O(\sqrt{n})$ size. Our PKBE construction is based on Boneh-Boyen-Goh's hierarchical identity-based encryption scheme. To provide the forward-secrecy with our PKBE scheme, we again use the delegation mechanism for lower level identities, introduced in the BBG scheme. We prove chosen ciphertext security of the proposed scheme under the Bilinear Diffie-Hellman Exponent assumption without random oracles.

3G 이동통신기술중 하나인 UMTS(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System)에서는 무선 구간의 안전한 통신을 위해 UMTS-AKA(Authentication and Key Agreement) 프로토콜이 사용된다. 그러나 SN(Serving Network)과 HN(Home Network)의 통신량 소비 문제, SQN(SeQuence Number) 동기화 문제 등 여러 가지 문제점이 제기되었다. 본 논문에서는 기존 프로토콜의 문제점과 IMSI(International Mobile Subscriber Identity)의 노출로 인한 프라이버시 문제점을 해결하고, ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman) 기법으로 완전한 전방향 안전성을 제공하는 프로토콜을 제안한다.

With a great improvement of computers and Network communication skills, we can exchange information quickly. There have been many researches on the subject how to guarantee the information security by security mechanism and cryptography schemes. Nowadays, many people in this area show their interest in money transfer systems between accounts, which can provide a secure mechanism in which people can send money to the legitimate party or person safe. However, we have teamed many ways to distort messages and repudiate the malicious activity in mail systems based on SSL mechanism. It is very likely that important information which must be kept in secret is laid exposed to un_authorized user. Accordingly, to provide stronger security service, researches on electronic payment system which tan guarantee the security characteristics such as confidentiality, integrity, user authentication, Non-repudiation, are strongly needed. In this paper, we analize the characteristics of the previous researches in this field, and also propose a securer electronic payment system based on ECC algorithm.

In e-commerce applications, a public key cryptosystem is an important and indispensible element for the basic security operations such as authentication, digital signaturing, and key distribution. In wired network environments, the public key infrastructure certificate, which is based on X.509 specification, has been widely used. On the other hand, it still remains difficult to use the certificate information in wireless network environments due to the inherent limitations of the hand-held devices such as low computational power and short battery life. In this paper, we facilitate a codesign approach by implementing a software public-key cryptosystem and classifying its internal computation overheads quantitatively using a software profiling technique. Moreover, we propose a method to analyze the profiled data and apply it to the problem of software/hardware partitioning in a codesign approach. As an illustrative example, we analyze the computational overheads of an EC-Elfagamal application and examine a critical computational path.

In the wireless Internet, it is so restrictive to use the IPSec. The MIPv4 IPSec's path cannot include wireless links. That is, the IPSec of the wireless Internet cannot protect an entire path of Host-to-Host connection. Also wireless circumstance keeps a path static during the shorter time, nevertheless, the IKE for IPSec SA agreement requires relatively long delay. The certificate management of IPSec PKI security needs too much burden. This means that IPSec of the wireless Internet is so disadvantageous. Our paper is to construct the Mobile IPSec proper to the wireless Internet which provides the host-to-host transport mode service to protect even wireless links as applying excellent WP-IBE scheme. For this, Mobile IPSec requires a dynamic routing over a path with wireless links. FA Forwarding is a routing method for FA to extend the path to a newly formed wireless link. The FA IPSec SA for FA Forwarding is updated to comply the dynamically extended path using Source Routing based Bind Update. To improve the performance of IPSec, we apply efficient and strong future Identity based Weil Pairing Bilinear Elliptic Curve Cryptography called as WP-IBE scheme. Our paper proposes the modified protocols to apply 6 security-related algorithms of WP-IBE into the Mobile IPSec. Particularly we focus on the protocols to be applied to construct ESP Datagram.

Recently, it has been shown that cryptographic devices such as smart cards are vulnerable to power attacks. In this paper, by mixing the randomization concept and the folding in half for secret scalar integer on ECCs, we propose an efficient and fast scalar multiplication algorithm to resist against simple power analysis(SPA) and differential power analysis(DPA) attacks. Our proposed algorithm as a countermeasure against SPA and DPA is estimated as a 33% speedup compared to the binary scalar multiplication.

The Miller algorithm is employed in the typical pairing computation such as Weil, Tate and Ate for implementing ID based cryptosystem. By analyzing the Mrabet's attack that is one of fault attacks against the Miller algorithm, this paper presents au efficient fault attack in Affine coordinate system, it is the most basic coordinates for construction of elliptic curve. The proposed attack is the effective model of a count check fault attack, it is verified to work well by practical fault injection experiments and can omit the probabilistic analysis that is required in the previous counter fault model.

Efficient finite field operation in the elliptic curve (EC) public key cryptography algorithm, which attracts much of latest issues in the applications in information security, is very important. Traditional serial finite multipliers root from Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture. In this paper, we adopt the polynomial basis and propose a new finite field multiplier, inducing numerical expressions which can be applied to exhibit 3 times as much performance as the Mastrovito's. We described the proposed multiplier with HDL to verify and evaluate as a proper hardware IP. HDL-implemented serial GF (Galois field) multiplier showed 3 times as fast speed as the traditional serial multiplier's adding only partial-sum block in the hardware. So far, there have been grossly 3 types of studies on GF($2^m$) multiplier architecture, such as serial multiplication, array multiplication, and hybrid multiplication. In this paper, we propose a novel approach on developing serial multiplier architecture based on Mastrovito's, by modifying the numerical formula of the polynomial-basis serial multiplication. The proposed multiplier architecture was described and implemented in HDL so that the novel architecture was simulated and verified in the level of hardware as well as software.
