A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. This paper explores ways to protect Korean goods as GIs in the U.S. and EU by examining the efforts of the Colombian Coffee Federation (FNC) to protect Colombian coffee. The FNC enhanced the global awareness of Colombian coffee and increased the profits of Colombian coffee producers by registering Colombian coffee as a certification mark in the U.S. and as a GI under the EU's quality schemes. The Korean government protects kimchi under its own GI system. For kimchi products to earn the label "Korean kimchi," the three main ingredients must be produced in Korea. This has been a challenge for kimchi producers, who often rely on imported ingredients. Korea could learn from FNC's strategies to improve the current GI system for kimchi.

This paper presents a multiple-watermarking scheme for copyright protection and the prevention of illegal copying of mobile 3D contents with low resolution. The proposed scheme embeds a unique watermark and a watermark certification authority (WCA) watermark into the spatial and encryption domains of a mobile 3D content based on the buyer-seller watermarking protocol. The seller generates a unique watermark and embeds it into the local maximum curvedness of a 3D object. After receiving the encrypted watermark from the WCA, the seller embeds it into the encrypted vertex data using an operator that satisfies the privacy homomorphic property. The proposed method was implemented using a mobile content tool, and the experimental results verify its capability in terms of copyright protection and the prevention of illegal copying.

At present, the smart grid has become one of the indispensable infrastructures in people's lives. As a commonly used communication method, wireless communication is gradually, being widely used in smart grid systems due to its convenient deployment and wide range of serious challenges to security. For the insecurity of the schemes based on large integer factorization and discrete logarithm problem in the quantum environment, an identity-based key management scheme for smart grid over lattice is proposed. To assure the communication security, through constructing intra-cluster and inter-cluster multi-hop routing secure mechanism. The time parameter and identity information are introduced in the relying phase. Through using the symmetric cryptography algorithm to encrypt improve communication efficiency. Through output the authentication information with probability, the protocol makes the private key of the certification body no relation with the distribution of authentication information. Theoretic studies and figures show that the efficiency of keys can be authenticated, so the number of attacks, including masquerade, reply and message manipulation attacks can be resisted. The new scheme can not only increase the security, but also decrease the communication energy consumption.

Ad hoc networks enable efficient resource aggregation in decentralized manner, and are inherently scalable and fault-tolerant since they do not depend on any centralized authority. However, lack of a centralized authority prompts many security-related challenges. Moreover, the dynamic topology change in which network nodes frequently join and leave adds a further complication in designing effective and efficient security mechanism. Security services for ad hoc networks need to be provided in a scalable and fault-tolerant manner while allowing for membership change of network nodes. In this paper, we investigate distributed certification mechanisms using a threshold cryptography in a way that the functions of a CA(Certification Authority) are distributed into the network nodes themselves and certain number of nodes jointly issue public key certificates to future joining nodes. In the process, we summarize one interesting report [5] in which the recently proposed RSA-based ad hoc signature scheme, called URSA, contains unfortunate yet serious security flaws. We then propose new scheme by fixing their security flaws.

The appropriateness of introducing blockchain technology into food safety management systems was evaluated by conducting a survey of experts on the effectiveness and constraint evaluation indicators, and a portfolio analysis was conducted to set the priorities of blockchain application. The food safety management activities considered in this study were issuing documents on food import/export, food hygiene rating scheme, civil complaint management in the food sector, food- related certification, risk information management, and food traceability systems. The sectors that can be expected to be effective in the introduction of blockchain technology were food- related certification, food hygiene rating scheme, risk information management, and issuing documents on food import/export. In the case of food traceability systems and civil complaint management, the introduction of blockchain technology was not recommended due to ineffectiveness. From the evaluation of the constraints (e.g., technical limits, cost, legal amendment, personal information disclosure, timeliness, and ease of connection) to be overcome when introducing blockchain into food safety management, it was found that there are more than average constraints in all six areas. In particular, the food traceability system was evaluated to have the most constraints. Issuing documents on food import/export is very effective with the introduction of blockchain technology, but due to high cost and legal restrictions, it is necessary to improve the institutional system in order to introduce blockchain. Among the evaluation sectors, food- related certification, food hygiene rating scheme, and risk information management on foods were suitable for preferentially adopting blockchain technology since these areas might experience greatly improved reliability and transparency through the introduction of blockchain, with relatively low constraints.

This research originated from the need to enhance the security of secure multiparty computation by ensuring that participants involved in multiparty computations provide truthful inputs that have not been manipulated. While malicious participants can be involved, which goes beyond the traditional security models, malicious behaviors through input manipulation often occur in real-world scenarios, leading to privacy infringements or situations where the accuracy of multiparty computation results cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, in this study, we propose a signature scheme applicable to secure multiparty technologies, combining it with secret sharing to strengthen the accuracy of inputs using authentication techniques. We also investigate methods to enhance the efficiency of authentication through the use of batch authentication techniques. To this end, a scheme capable of input certification was designed by applying a commitment scheme and zero-knowledge proof of knowledge to the CL signature scheme, which is a lightweight signature scheme, and batch verification was applied to improve efficiency during authentication.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of certificate-based encryption in multi-receiver environment, which avoids the inherent key escrow problem while preserving the implicit certification in identity-based encryption. We also construct a highly efficient certificate-based encryption scheme for multi-receiver environment, which eliminates pairing computation to encrypt a message for multiple receivers. Moreover, the proposed scheme only needs one pairing computation for decrypting the ciphertext. We compare our scheme with the most efficient identity-based encryption scheme for multi-receiver environment proposed by Baek et.al.[1] in terms of the computational point of view, and show that our scheme provides better efficiency than Baek's scheme. Finally, we discuss how to properly transform our scheme into a new public key broadcast encryption scheme based on subset-cover framework.

One of the most important point in the Internet crime investigation is tracing back and pointing out a criminal host. However, criminals can forge a crime record stored in the crime host, or can utilize malicious applications in order not to leave a crime record. In addition, criminals can change the source IP address of a crime host and deny their involvement. In this study, we suggests the Network Forensic Evidence Generation and Verification Scheme (NFEGVS) to rectify the current limitation of Network Forensic technologies. This scheme can prove who and when the crime has occurred. In addition, this prevents leaking of symmetric key for guaranteeing certification and integrity of Forensic Evidence by proposing the Timestamp Secret Key Distribution Scheme, and minimizes performance degradation of router when generating forensic evidence with the Flow-Based Selection Scheme. In this paper, we implement the proposed scheme and evaluate overall performance of the proposed system.
