Biometrics-based user authentication has several advantages over traditional password-based systems for standalone authentication applications. This is also true for new authentication architectures known as crypto-biometric systems, where cryptography and biometrics are merged to achieve high security and user convenience at the same time. Recently, a cryptographic construct, called fuzzy vault, has been proposed for crypto-biometric systems. This construct aims to secure critical data(e.g., secret key) with the fingerprint data in a way that only the authorized user can access the secret by providing the valid fingerprint, and some implementations results for fingerprint have been reported. However, the previous results had some limitation of the provided security due to the limited numbers of chaff data fer hiding real fingerprint data. In this paper, we propose an approach to provide both the automatic alignment of fingerprint data and higher security by using a 3D geometric hash table. Based on the experimental results, we confirm that the proposed approach of using the 3D geometric hash table with the idea of the fuzzy vault can perform the fingerprint verification securely even with more chaff data included.

In this paper, we present the structure and interaction flow between IKE server and the other modules for our IPsec System's efficiency. Our IPsec systems have several components for IP-based end-to-end security services. They are IKE, SADB and SPDB and so on, not to speak of IPsec Protocol Engine. Therefore the efficient interaction structure between them has an much influence on total system efficiency. Especially, in case of IPsec engine integrated with kernel, it is very important how IPsec engine can refer to SPDB and SADB entries efficiently according to the location of the implementation of SPDB and SADB. To solve the above problem, we use the SPI generated by IKE. Finally, we propose the interaction structure between IKE server and the other modules according to the optimization for referring to SPDB and SADB entries.

In this paper, we propose a secure communication framework for interaction and information sharing between a server and agents in DS-NVSA(Detection System of Network Vulnerability Scan Attacks) proposed in〔1〕. For the scalability and interoperability with other detection systems, we design the proposed IDMEF and IAP that have been drafted by IDWG. We adapt IDMEF and IAP to the proposed framework and provide SKTLS(Symmetric Key based Transport Layer Security Protocol) for the network environment that cannot afford to support public-key infrastructure. Our framework provides the reusability of heterogeneous intrusion detection systems and enables the scope of intrusion detection to be extended. Also it can be used as a framework for ESM(Enterprise Security Management) system.

In this paper, we propose electronic payment protocol using GDHP blind signature scheme to activate e-business in the wire/wireless integrated environment. The protocol applied elliptic curve algorithm on the GDHP base and improved the efficiency of the existing blind signature technique on the basis of communication frequency and calculation number. And the protocol accelerated speed and strengthened safety against man-in-the-middle attacks and forward secrecy because the certification between individuals is performed by the session key created by Weil paring using elliptic curve cryptosystem in the limited entity $F_q$ instead of the certification used in the existing PayWord protocol.

In recently, ship trajectory data consisting of ship position, speed, course, and so on can be obtained from the Automatic Identification System device with which all ships should be equipped. These data are gathered more than 2GB every day at a crowed sea port and used for analysis of ship traffic statistic and patterns. In this study, we propose a method to process ship trajectory data efficiently with distributed computing resources using MapReduce algorithm. In data preprocessing phase, ship dynamic and static data are integrated into target dataset and filtered out ship trajectory that is not of interest. In mapping phase, we convert ship's position to Geohash code, and assign Geohash and ship MMSI to key and value. In reducing phase, key-value pairs are sorted according to the same key value and counted the ship traffic number in a grid cell. To evaluate the proposed method, we implemented it and compared it with IALA waterway risk assessment program(IWRAP) in their performance. The data processing performance improve 1 to 4 times that of the existing ship trajectory analysis program.

For more efficient energy management of nodes in wireless sensor networks, research has been conducted on mobile sink nodes that deliver data from sensor nodes to server recently. UAV (Unmanned Aerial vehicle) is used as a representative mobile sink node. Also, most studies on UAV propose algorithms for calculating optimal paths and have produced rapid advances in the IoD (Internet of Drones) environment. At the same time, some papers proposed mutual authentication and secure key exchange considering nature of the IoD, which requires efficient creation of multiple nodes and session keys in security perspective. However, most papers that proposed secure communication in mobile sink nodes did not protect end-to-end data privacy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose integrated security model that authentication between mobile sink nodes and sensor nodes to securely relay sensor data to base stations. Also, we show informal security analysis that our scheme is secure from various known attacks. Finally, we compare communication overhead with other key exchange schemes previously proposed.

With prosperous usage of cloud services to improve management efficiency due to the explosive increase in data volume, various cryptographic techniques are being applied in order to preserve data privacy. In spite of the vast computing resources of cloud systems, decrease in storage efficiency caused by redundancy of data outsourced from multiple users acts as a factor that significantly reduces service efficiency. Among several approaches on privacy-preserving data deduplication over encrypted data, in this paper, the research results for improving efficiency of encrypted data deduplication using trusted execution environment (TEE) published in the recent USENIX ATC are analysed in terms of security and efficiency of the participating entities. We present a way to improve the stability of a key-managing server by integrating it with individual clients, resulting in secure deduplication without independent key servers. The experimental results show that the communication efficiency of the proposed approach can be improved by about 30% with the effect of a distributed key server while providing robust security guarantees as the same level of the previous research.

Currently, various types of user authentication methods based on public certificates are used in domestic financial transactions. Such an authorized certificate method has a problem that a different security module must be installed every time a user connects an individual financial company to a web server. Also, the financial company relying on this authentication method has a problem that a new security module should be additionally installed for each financial institution whenever a next generation authentication method such as biometric authentication is newly introduced. In order to solve these problems, we propose an integrated authentication system that handles user authentication on behalf of each financial institution in financial transactions, and proposes an integrated authentication protocol that handles secure user authentication between user and financial company web server. The new authentication protocol is a modified version of OAuth2.0 that increases security and efficiency. It is characterized by performing a challenge-response protocol with a pre-shared secret key between the authentication server and the financial company web server. This gives users a convenient and secure Single Sign-On (SSO) effect.
