The current Private 5G use procedure goes through the step of application examination, use and usage inspection, and can be divided in to application, examination step as a procedure before frequency allocation, and use, usage inspection step as a procedure after frequency allocation. Various types of documents are required to apply for a Private 5G, and due to the document screening process and radio station inspection for using Private 5G frequencies, the procedure for Private 5G applicants to use Private 5G is complicated and takes a considerable amount of time. In this paper, we proposed Frequency Allocation Process for Private 5G using a blockchain platform, which is fast and simplified than the current procedure. Through the use of a blockchain platform and NFT (Non-Fungible Token), reliability and integrity of the data required in the frequency allocation process were secured, and security of frequency usage information was maintained and a reliable Private 5G frequency allocation process was established. Also by applying the RPA system that minimizes human intervention, fairness was secured in the process of allocating Private 5G. Finally, the frequency allocation process of Private 5G based on the Ethereum blockchain was performed though a simulation.

After the corona virus, as non-face-to-face services are activated, domain services that guarantee integrity by embedding sensing information of the Internet of Things (IoT) with block chain technology are expanding. For example, in areas such as safety and security using CCTV, a process is required to safely update firmware in real time and to confirm that there is no malicious intrusion. In the existing safe security processing procedures, in many cases, the person in charge performing official duties carried a USB device and directly updated the firmware. However, when private blockchain technology such as Hyperledger is used, the convenience and work efficiency of the Internet of Things environment can be expected to increase. This article describes scenarios in how to prevent vulnerabilities in the operating environment of various customers such as firmware updates and device changes in a non-face-to-face environment. In particular, we introduced the optimal blockchain technique for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is easily exposed to malicious security risks such as hacking and information leakage. In this article, we tried to present the necessity and implications of security management that guarantees integrity through operation applying block chain technology in the increasingly expanding Internet of Things environment. If this is used, it is expected to gain insight into how to apply the blockchain technique to guidelines for strengthening the security of the IoT environment in the future.

Blockchain is being studied in various fields such as logistics, fintech, medical care, and the public sector. In the public information software project, some deliverables are omitted because the developed deliverables and the deliverables requested by the project management methodology do not match, and an additional process is required for payment. In this paper, we propose the deliverables management system for public information software project which is configured a distributed environment using the Ethereum blockchain and which has an automatic payment system only when all deliverables are approved. This system can keep the service available in case of system failure, provide transparency and traceability of deliverables management, and can reduce conflicts between the ordering company and the contractor through automatic payment. In this system, the information of deliverables is stored in the blockchain, and the deliverables that their file name is the hash value calculated by using the version information and the hash value of the previous version deliverable, are stored in the SFTP server. Experimental results show that the hash value of the deliverables registered by the contractor is correct, the file name of the deliverables stored in the SFTP server is the same as the hash value registered in the Ethereum blockchain, and the payment is made automatically to the Ethereum address of the contractor when all deliverables are approved.

Smart contract, one of the applications of blockchain, is expected to be used in various industries. However, there is risks of damages caused by attacks on vulnerabilities in smart contract codes. Tool support is essential to detect vulnerabilities, and as new vulnerabilities emerge and smart contract implementation languages increase, the tools must have extensibility for them. We propose a design model for extensible architecture of smart contract vulnerability detection tools that detect vulnerabilities in smart contract source codes. The proposed model is composed of design pattern-based structures that provides extensibility to easily support extension of detecting modules for new vulnerabilities and other implementation languages of smart contract. In the model, detecting modules are composed of independent module, so modifying or adding of module do not affect other modules and the system structure.

The biggest feature of the online environment is anonymity. So it is difficult to identify the sender accurately in Email. So we use PGP to enhance the security of email. PGP is an e-mail encryption program that has become the standard for email security worldwide. But PGP has a weak point in security. PGP can identify users, but it is difficult to verify reliability. In PGP, the more reliable other users guarantee that user are, the more reliable they are. In the previous study, the PGP structure was implemented by utilizing the block chain to lay the foundation, and in this paper, the structure of the previous article is applied to the e-mail environment to measure up the sender's reliability, and a system is proposed that allows users to distinguish the reliability of the message.

As blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionize trust models and business processes across industries, applications are expected to be endless. However, this technology is still in the early stage, and the scalability caused by the accumulation of transaction data due to the increase of blocks is emerging as a serious problem. In this paper, we propose various alternatives to solve the scalability problem.

온라인 신분증명에는 공인인증서, I-PIN, 휴대전화 등이 사용된다. 서비스 제공자는 사용자의 신분을 증명한 후 사용자의 정보를 회원가입과 같은 절차를 통해 수집하고 저장한다. 이와 같이 중앙에서 관리하는 것은 관리적 측면의 편리성은 존재하지만 관리시스템 자체가 단일 실패 지점으로서의 위험성과 해킹 등으로 인한 개인정보 유출의 위험성이 상존한다. 최근 중앙관리의 한계를 급복하기 위해 분산 원장관리 기술인 블록체인 기술이 등장하였다. 블록체인 기술은 각각의 정보의 블록을 체인으로 연결하여 블록체인에 참여하는 각 노드에 의해 관리하는 분산관리 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 블록체인 기술을 기반으로 하는 온라인 신분증명 스킴을 제안한다. 블록체인을 기반으로 하기 때문에 개인의 정보를 중앙에서 관리할 필요가 없다. 또한 블록체인의 특성상 위변조로부터 안전하다는 장점이 있다. 마지막으로, 제안하는 방법에서 노드에 저장되는 개인정보는 암호화하는 방법을 사용하여 타인의 정보를 볼 수 없도록 하는 기밀성을 제공할 수 있어 노출에 대한 안전성을 제공한다.
