  • In order to operate multi drone efficiently, existing control methods must be improved, and drones must be able to construct communication networks autonomously. FANET(Flying Ad-Hoc Network), which is being considered as an alternative to solving these problems, is based on ad hoc network technology and can be exposed to a variety of security vulnerabilities. However, due to the limited computational power and memory of FANET nodes, and rapid and frequent changes in network topology, it is not easy to apply the existing security measures to FANET without modification. Thus, this paper proposes lightweight security measures applicable to FANET, which have distinct characteristics from existing ad hoc networks by utilizing PUF technology. The proposed security measures utilize unique values generated by non-replicable PUFs to increase the safety of AODV, FANET's reactive routing protocol, and are resistant to various attacks.

  • As the industry related to drones has been activated, the public interest in drones has increased explosively, and many cases of drone-using are increasing. In the case of military drones, the security problem is the level of defense of the aircraft or cruise missiles, but commercial small and low cost drones are often released and utilized without security count-measure. This makes it possible for an attacker to easily gain access to the root of the drones, access internal files, or send fake packets. However, this droning problem can lead to another dangerous attack. In this regard, this paper has identified the vulnerabilities inherent in the commercial drones by analyzing the attack cases in the communication process of the specific drones. In this paper, we analyze and test the vulnerability in terms of scanning attack, meson attack, authentication revocation attack, packet stop command attack, packet retransmission attack, signal manipulation and de-compile attack. This study is useful for the analysis of drones attack and vulnerability.

  • The Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol for encryption TCP/IP traffic that provides confidentiality, authentication and data integrity. Also the SSL is intended to provide the widely applicable connection-oriented mechanism which is applicable for various application-layer, for Internet client/server communication security. SSL, designed by Netscape is supported by all clients' browsers and server supporting security services. Now the version of SSL is 3.0. The first official TLS vl.0 specification was released by IETF Transport Layer Security working group in January 1999. As the version of SSL has had upgraded, a lot of vulnerabilities were revealed. SSL and TLS generate the private key with parameters exchange method in handshake protocol, a lot of attacks may be caused on this exchange mechanism, also the same thing may be come about in record protocol. In this paper, we analyze SSL protocol, compare the difference between TLS and SSL protocol, and suggest what developers should pay attention to implementation.

  • Recently, data access control policies have not been applied for authorized or unauthorized persons properly and information leakage incidents have occurred due to database security vulnerabilities. In the traditional database access control methods, administrators grant permissions for accessing database objects to users. However, these methods couldn't be applied for diverse access control policies to the database. In addition, another database security method which uses data encryption is difficult to utilize data indexing. Thus, this paper proposes an enhanced database access control system via a packet analysis method between client and database server in network to apply diverse security policies. The proposed security system can be applied the applications with access control policies related to specific factors such as date, time, SQL string, the number of result data and etc. And it also assures integrity via a public key certificate and MAC (Message Authentication Code) to prevent modification of user information and query sentences.

  • Recently, as the use of smart devices is becoming more common, various and convenient services are being developed. Among these services, the Social Network Service(SNS) is easily accessible anywhere, anytime. In particular, as well as sharing information, it forms a social relationship in cyberspace to expand new connections, and the SNS account is used as an authentication means of other services to provide users with speed and convenience at all times. However, despite the many advantages of SNS, due to security vulnerabilities occurring in the interworking process with various services, accidents of personal information are constantly occurring, and it is urgent to prepare countermeasures against potential risk factors. It is a necessary situation. Therefore, in this paper, the use of SNS is expected to increase rapidly in the future, and it is expected that it will be used as the basic data for developing the countermeasures by learning the countermeasures according to the security threats of the SNS.

  • Since 2014, ease of regulations on financial institutions expanded the mobile payment market based on simple authentication, and this resulted in the emergence of various simple payment services. Although several security solutions have been used to mitigate possible security threats to payment applications, there are vulnerabilities which can still be found due to the structure in which the security solution is applied to the payment service. In this paper, we analyze the payment application and security solution from the process perspective, and prove through experimentation that verification functions of security solutions can be bypassed without detailed analysis of each security function, but by simply manipulating the verification result value. Finally, we propose methods to mitigate the bypass method presented in this paper from three different perspectives, and thereby contribute to the improvement of security level of the payment service.

  • Electronic contract systems are widely used to integrate and manage the contract management process based on the development of ICT technology. Recently, improvement methods using block chain technology are being studied. However, contract management systems have processing performance, security vulnerabilities, data entry, and service accessibility issues. In this paper, we propose a block - chain based contract management platform with block chain, smart contract, and Rest API. The suggested platform includes the RPBFT algorithm which solves the processing performance and security vulnerability of the existing consensus authentication algorithm, and the algorithm to prevent data entry and enhance transparency of participants. The block-chain-based contract management platform proposed in this paper provides a use environment with improved processing performance, security, reliability, and transparency, and can be used through API without burdening construction. Therefore, The effect can be expected.

  • 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.

  • A new type of malware that extracts personal and account data over an extended period of time and that apparently is resistant to detection by vaccines has been identified. Generally, a malware is installed on a computer through network-to-network connections by utilizing Web vulnerabilities that contain injection, XSS, broken authentication and session management, or insecure direct-object references, among others. After the malware executes registration of an arbitrary service and an arbitrary process on a computer, it then periodically communicates the collected confidential information to a hacker. This paper is a systematic approach to analyzing a new type of malware called "winweng," a kind of worm that frequently made appearances during the first half of 2011. The research describes how the malware came to be in circulation, how it infects computers, how its operations expose its existence and suggests improvements in responses and countermeasures.
