Kerberos is designed to provide strong authentication between client and application servers which are working in distributed network environment by using symmetric-key cryptography, and supposed to trust other systems of the realm. In this paper, we design an efficient and strong authentication mechanism by introducing the public/private-key to Kerberos. In the mechanism to make a system more secure, the value of the session key is changed everytime using MAC(message authentication code) algorithm with the long-term key for user-authentication and a random number exchanged through the public key. Also, we employ a mutual authentication method, which is used on challenge-response mechanism based on digital signatures, to improve trust between realms, and present a way of reducing the number of keys by simplifying authentication steps.

When the Korean Wave was sweeping over China, Asia, Other Countries, Some people worried that the ambiguity of the copyright act would obstruct export of the entertainment contents. To solve this problem, the copyright authentication was introduced in the copyright act, enforcement for its, etc. There are two authentication systems at copyright. One is right authentication protected by copyright, Other one is licence authentication received from the owner. This study is meant to seeking the problem of insufficient regulation related to copyright authentication. According to analysis of FGI in this study, the existing system does not support a proper and specific way how to suggest a long term perspective in the transaction of Korean Contents between Korea and China. The key to success of copyright authentication system between Korea and China depends upon the implementation of the system of copyright mutual authentication. To do so, In reality, laws, institutions, technologies, policies, and operations, etc. should be Inter-operability. Also we should realize that this system gives mutual benefits at transaction between the two countries. Thus, it is important for two countries to effort trade cooperation continuously.

As telecommunication technologies in telemedicine services are developed, the expeditious development of wireless and mobile networks has stimulated wide applications of mobile electronic healthcare systems. However, security is an essential system requirement since many patients have privacy concerns when it comes to releasing their personal information over the open wireless channels. Due to the invisible feature of mobile signals, hackers have easier access to hospital networks than wired network systems. This may result in several security incidents unless security protocols are well prepared. In this paper, we analyzed authentication and authorization procedures for healthcare system architecture to apply secure M-health systems in the hospital environment. From the analyses, we estimate optimal requirements as a countermeasure to its vulnerabilities.

For the effective use of information in the information society, information should be protected and outflow of information by illegal users should be prevented. This study sets up user authentication policy, user authentication regulations and procedures for information protection and builds information protection key distribution center and encryption user Authentication system which can protect information from illegal users.

Cloud computing is cost-effective in terms of system configuration and maintenance and does not require special IT skills for management. Also, cloud computing provides an access control setting where SSO is adopted to secure user convenience and availability. As the SSO user authentication structure of cloud computing is exposed to quite a few external security threats in wire/wireless network integrated service environment, researchers explore technologies drawing on distributed SSO agents. Yet, although the cloud computing access control using the distributed SSO agents enhances security, it impacts on the availability of services. That is, if any single agent responsible for providing the authentication information fails to offer normal services, the cloud computing services become unavailable. To rectify the environment compromising the availability of cloud computing services, and to protect resources, the current paper proposes a security policy that controls the authority to access the resources for cloud computing services by applying the authentication policy of user authentication agents. The proposed system with its policy of the authority to access the resources ensures seamless and secure cloud computing services for users.

In this paper, we describe the effective way of keyboard-hacking prevention and authentication system using a Smart Card. These days the securing information matters for pc-users are becoming more important as the internet business grows rapidly, and the ubiquitous computing environment is open tot everyone. Therefore, PC authentication is necessary to handle the access control to the target PC. Also, the keyboard-inputting information is necessary to be protected properly against the malicious attack. In this paper, we propose the keyboard-hacking protect systems and authentication system using a Smart Card, and show the conveniency and efficiency in the results.

The importance of security in WLAN(Wireless LAN) service is very critical, so IEEE organization has made the IEEE 802.1x standard. The IEEE 802.1x standard uses the EAP as authentication protocol which requires AAA(Authentication, authorization, and Accounting) server for authentication & accounting. for the reliable and scalable AAA service, the Diameter protocol has more advanced characteristics than existing radius protocol. So the Diameter protocol can be used for WLAN service provider who has large scale WLAN system and a large number of subscriber. This paper proposes the design of Diameter AAA server for the authentication and accounting of WLAN system which is adopting IEEE 802.1x standard.

Though there are many authentication protocols for RFID system, only a few protocols support location privacy. Because of tag's hardware limitation, these protocols suffer from many security threats, especially from DoS (Denial of Service) attack. In this paper, we explain location privacy problem and show vulnerabilities of RFID authentication protocols. And then, we suggest an authentication protocol that is strong against location tracing, spoofing attack and DoS attack

Authentication mechanism for W-CMDA IMT-2000 system is developed by 3GPP TSG SA WG3. We simulated the mechanism and algorithms. In this paper, we overview 3GPP authentication procedures and present results of our simulation. We validate the mechanism and parameters transmitted during authentication procedures and we also discuss parameters which are unclear in specification.

The USIM-based AKA authentication process is essential to a mobile payment system on smart phone environment. In this paper a payment protocol and an AKA module are designed for mobile payment system which is suitable for openness smart phone environment. The payment protocol designs the cross authentication among components of the mobile payment system to improve the reliability of the components. The AKA module of mobile payment system based on 3GPP-AKA protocol prevents the exposure of IMSI by creating the SSK(Shared Secure Key) through advance registration and solves the SQN(SeQuence Number) synchronization problem by using timestamp. Also, by using the SSK instead of authentication vector between SN and authentication center, the existing bandwidth $(688{\times}N){\times}R$ bit between them is reduced to $320{\times}R$ bit or $368{\times}R$ bit. It creates CK and IK which are message encryption key by using OT-SSK(One-Time SSK) between MS and SN. In addition, creating the new OT-SSK whenever MS is connected to SN, it prevents the data replay attack.
