Now, It is vulnerabilities and problems of adaption in user identification and authentication on the Web environments; the BAA(Basic Access Authentication) of HTTP1.0 is that use. ID and password is passed with clear-text between client and server, For this enhancement, the DAA(Digest Access Authentication) of HTTP1.1 is that use. password is digested by MAC(Message Authentication Code) mechanism. but, this mechanism is not adapted by venders of Web browsers. This paper propose the lava based user identification and authentication model to resolve the above problems. Proposed systems are applied to the Web environment, since it has independence to web server and client.

Database outsourcing is unavoidable in the near future. In the scenario of data stream outsourcing, the data owner continuously publishes the latest data and associated authentication information through a service provider. Clients may register queries to the service provider and verify the result's correctness, utilizing the additional authentication information. Research on On-line Stream Analytics (OLSA) is motivated by extending the data cube technology for higher multi-level abstraction on the low-level-abstracted data streams. Existing work on OLSA fails to consider the issue of database outsourcing, while previous work on stream authentication does not support OLSA. To close this gap and solve the problem of OLSA query authentication while outsourcing data streams, we propose MDAHRB and MDAHB, two multi-dimensional authentication approaches. They are based on the general data model for OLSA, the stream cube. First, we improve the data structure of the H-tree, which is used to store the stream cube. Then, we design and implement two authentication schemes based on the improved H-trees, the HRB- and HB-trees, in accordance with the main stream query authentication framework for database outsourcing. Along with a cost models analysis, consistent with state-of-the-art cost metrics, an experimental evaluation is performed on a real data set. It exhibits that both MDAHRB and MDAHB are feasible for authenticating OLSA queries, while MDAHRB is more scalable.

Nowadays, most users access internet through mobile applications. The common way to authenticate users through websites forms is using passwords; while they are efficient procedures, they are subject to guessed or forgotten and many other problems. Additional multi modal authentication procedures are needed to improve the security. Behavioral authentication is a way to authenticate people based on their typing behavior. It is used as a second factor authentication technique beside the passwords that will strength the authentication effectively. Keystroke dynamic rhythm is one of these behavioral authentication methods. Keystroke dynamics relies on a combination of features that are extracted and processed from typing behavior of users on the touched screen and smart mobile users. This Research presents a novel analysis in the keystroke dynamic authentication field using two features categories: timing and no timing combined features. The proposed model achieved lower error rate of false acceptance rate with 0.1%, false rejection rate with 0.8%, and equal error rate with 0.45%. A comparison in the performance measures is also given for multiple datasets collected in purpose to this research.

It has been proposed that several RFID authentication protocols based on hash chain. Status based authentication protocol and challenge-response based authentication protocol are secured against location tracking attacks, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, traffic analysis attacks but are vulnerable to Dos attacks. RFID authentication protocol with strong resistance against traceability and denial of service attack is secured against location tracking attack, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, DoS attacks but are vulnerable to traffic analysis attacks. The present study suggests a more secure and lightweight RFID authentication protocol which is combining the advantages of hash-chain authentication protocol and RFID authentication protocol with strong resistance against traceability and denial of service attack. The results of the secure analysts for a proposed protocol are illustrated that it is secured against location tracking attacks, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, traffic analysis attacks, Dos attacks and is a lightweight operation between server and tag.

Currently, the user authentication technology used by users to access multiple applications within an organization is being applied with ID/PW-based SSO technology. These user authentication methods have the fundamental disadvantages of ID/PW and SSO. This means that security vulnerabilities in ID/PW can lead to periodic changes in PWs and limits on the number of incorrect PW inputs, and SSO adds high cost of the SSO server, which centrally stores the authentication information, etc. There is also a fundamental vulnerability that allows others to freely use other people's applications when they leave the portal application screen with SSO. In this paper, we proposed an app-based 2-channel authentication scheme to fundamentally eliminate problems with existing ID/PW-based SSO user authentication technologies. To this end, it distributed centralized user authentication information that is stored on SSO server to each individual's smartphone. In addition, when users access a particular application, they are required to be authenticated through their own smartphone apps.

Among the remote user authentication schemes, password-based authentication methods are the most widely used. In 2004, Das et al. proposed a "Dynamic ID Based Remote User Authentication Scheme" that is the password based scheme with smart-cards, and is the light-weight technique using only one-way hash algorithm and XOR calculation. This scheme adopts a dynamic ID that protects against ID-theft attack, and can resist replay attack with timestamp features. Later, many flaws of this scheme were founded that it allows any passwords to be authenticated, and can be vulnerable to impersonation attack, and guessing attack. By this reason many modifications were announced. These scheme including all modifications are similarly maintained security against replay the authentication message attack by the timestamp. But, if advisory can replay the login immediately, this attempt can be succeeded. In this paper, we analyze the security vulnerabilities of Das scheme, and propose improved scheme which can resist on real-time replay attack using the counter of authentication. Besides our scheme still secure against impersonation attack, guessing attack, and also provides mutual authentication feature.

Behavior-based authentication technology, which is currently being researched a lot, requires a long extraction of a lot of data to increase the recognition rate of authentication compared to other authentication technologies. This paper uses the touch sensor and the gyroscope embedded in the smartphone in the Android environment to measure five times to the user to use only the minimum data that is essential among the behavior feature data used in the behavior-based authentication study. By requesting, a total of six behavior feature data were collected by touching the five touch screen, and the mean value was calculated from the changes in data during the next touch measurement to measure the cosine similarity between the value and the measured value. After generating the allowable range of cosine similarity by performing, we propose a user behavior based authentication method that compares the cosine similarity value of the authentication attempt data. Through this paper, we succeeded in demonstrating high performance from the first EER of 37.6% to the final EER of 1.9% by adjusting the threshold applied to the cosine similarity authentication range even in a small number of feature data and experimenter environments.

Many businesses and organizations use smartcard-based user authentication for remote access. In the meantime, through various studies, dynamic ID-based remote user authentication protocols for distributed multi-server environments have been proposed to protect the connection between users and servers. Among them, Qiu et al. proposed an efficient smart card-based remote user authentication system that provides mutual authentication and key agreement, user anonymity, and resistance to various types of attacks. Later, Andola et al. found various vulnerabilities in the authentication scheme proposed by Qiu et al., and overcame the flaws in their authentication scheme, and whenever the user wants to log in to the server, the user ID is dynamically changed before logging in. An improved authentication protocol is proposed. In this paper, by analyzing the operation process and vulnerabilities of the protocol proposed by Andola et al., it was revealed that the protocol proposed by Andola et al. was vulnerable to offline smart card attack, dos attack, lack of perfect forward secrecy, and session key attack.

A variety of services for mobile payments by the activation of FinTech have been developed. Various payment methods were developed, and an authentication method was developed to improve the reliability of the payment. On the other hand, when mobile easy payment services are used, they have weak security because the authentication by phone number. Therefore, this paper proposes a technique for increasing the reliability of the authentication process using the unique device ID of the mobile device to improve the authentication process based on the telephone number. The core research contents are the architecture and process for the authentication of mobile payments based on the mobile device ID. The mobile payment architecture consists of a mobile device, authentication service, and mobile payment application. The mobile device consists of mobile device ID and phone number, and the authentication server consists of authentication module and encryption module. The mobile payment service consists of a pre-authentication module and decryption module. The process of mobile payment service is processed by the encrypted authentication information (device ID, phone number, and authentication number) among mobile devices, authentication server, and mobile payment application. The mobile device sends the telephone number and the device ID to the authentication server and the authentication server authenticates the user through an authentication process and encryption process. The mobile payment application performs the pre-authentication process by decrypting the received authentication number. This paper reports a difference that can prevent the risk of leakage of the authentication number in existing payment services through the authentication process of the authentication server and the pre-authentication process of the mobile payment service of this paper.

The increase in user data stored in the device implies the increase in threats of users' sensitive data. Currently, smartphone authentication mechanisms such as Pattern Lock, fingerprint recognition are widely used. Although, there exist disadvantages of inconvenience use and dependence that users need to depend on their own memory. User behavior based authentication mechanism have advantages of high convenience by offering continuous authentication when using the mobile device. However, these mechanisms show limitations on low accuracy of authentication and there are researches to improve the accuracy. This paper proposes improved authentication mechanism that uses user's smartphone application usage pattern which has not considered on earlier studies. Also, we analyze performance of proposed mechanism with collected datasets from actual use of smartphone applications.
