  • u-fitness 기반 운동관리와 관련된 민감한 신체 정보의 양이 폭발적으로 증가하고 있기 때문에 클라우드 서비스의 활용에 대한 관심이 날로 증가하고 있다. 그러나 클라우드 서버는 자신의 서버에 저장된 정보에 불법적으로 접근할 수 있으며, 누가 그 정보의 소유자인지를 알아낼 수 있고, 스토리지에 저장된 정보 간의 연관성을 불법적으로 추론할 수 있다. 또한 클라우드 서버는 저장된 정보에 대해 수정, 삭제 같은 소유자의 정당한 연산 요청에 대해 불이행할 수 있으며, 자체의 오작동으로 인해 정보를 분실하거나 손상시킬 수 있다. 따라서 우리는 클라우드 서버를 전적으로 신뢰할 수 없기 때문에 클라우드 서버를 사용하기 위해서는 위와 같은 문제들을 해결해야 한다. 우리는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서 u-Fitness 기반 운동관리를 위한 소유자의 프라이버시를 보장하는 프로토콜을 제안한다. 그리고 제안한 구조가 실제 환경에서 적용 가능함을 보안 분석과 성능 분석을 통해 보인다.

  • 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서 서버나 애플리케이션들이 수 분 사이에 구축되고 장애 발생 시 복구 또한 쉬워졌다. 특히, 잠시 서비스하기 위해서 물리적인 서버를 구축하는 것 보다 클라우드에서 가상 서버를 이용하면 편리함과 동시에 비용도 저렴하다. 하지만 그러한 서버나 애플리케이션들의 기반이 되는 네트워크나 보안시스템은 대부분 하드웨어 기반으로 구성되어 있어 클라우드 가상화 적용에 어려움이 많다. 클라우드 내에서도 네트워크나 보안설비 등에 대한 가상화를 통한 보호가 필요하게 되었다. 본 논문은 네트워크 가상화 기술을 활용하여 클라우드 네트워크의 보안을 강화하는 방법에 대한 연구를 다루고 있다. 가상 서버 및 가상 네트워크를 생성해 다양한 보안 이점을 제공하는 가상화 기술을 활용해 링크 가상화와 라우터 가상화를 적용하여 보안이 강화된 네트워크를 구성하였다. 구성된 네트워크에 가상 방화벽 기능을 적용해 네트워크를 격리할 수 있었으며, 이 결과를 토대로 가상화 환경에서 보안 취약점을 극복하고 안전한 네트워크 구성을 위한 관리 전략을 제안하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

  • Cloud storage is provided as a service in order to keep pace with the increasing use of digital information. It can be used to store data via networks and various devices and is easy to access. Unlike existing removable storage, many users can use cloud storage because it has no storage capacity limit and does not require a storage medium. Cloud storage reliability has become a topic of importance, as many users employ it for saving great volumes of data. For protection against unethical administrators and attackers, a variety of cryptography systems, such as searchable encryption and proxy re-encryption, are being applied to cloud storage systems. However, the existing searchable encryption technology is inconvenient to use in a cloud storage environment where users upload their data. This is because this data is shared with others, as necessary, and the users with whom the data is shared change frequently. In this paper, we propose a searchable re-encryption scheme in which a user can safely share data with others by generating a searchable encryption index and then re-encrypt it.

  • Aiming at the phenomenon of false information issued by service providers in cloud computing environment, a method for service evaluation based on fuzzy theory is put forward in this paper. According to the quality of services provided by cloud service providers and their behavior during interactions, a trust relationship between cloud service providers and cloud service consumers is established, which can be quantified by using fuzzy theory. The quality of services is evaluated by drawing on the trust relationship. In our method, the recommendation credibility of a cloud service consumer is determined through behavior similarity with evaluators and a praise factor. The introduction of the praise factor better suits the phenomenon of a high-quality service getting more repeat customers. The negative impact of dishonest customers is reduced, and the accuracy of trust and cloud service quality evaluation is improved by introducing a confidence factor that can be dynamically adjusted. The experimental results show that our method can effectively and accurately evaluate the trust value and service quality of providers, while weakening the influence of dishonest consumers, and quickly detect dishonest service providers. This is beneficial for consumers trying to find high quality service providers for similar services.

  • The current behavior recognition system don't match data formats between sensor data measured by user's sensor module or device. Therefore, it is necessary to support data processing, sharing and collaboration services between users and behavior recognition system in order to process sensor data of a large capacity, which is another formats. It is also necessary for real time interaction with users and behavior recognition system. To solve this problem, we propose fog cloud based behavior recognition system for human body sensor data processing. Fog cloud based behavior recognition system solve data standard formats in DbaaS (Database as a System) cloud by servicing fog cloud to solve heterogeneity of sensor data measured in user's sensor module or device. In addition, by placing fog cloud between users and cloud, proximity between users and servers is increased, allowing for real time interaction. Based on this, we propose behavior recognition system for user's behavior recognition and service to observers in collaborative environment. Based on the proposed system, it solves the problem of servers overload due to large sensor data and the inability of real time interaction due to non-proximity between users and servers. This shows the process of delivering behavior recognition services that are consistent and capable of real time interaction.

  • Cloud is the latest buzz word in the internet community among developers, consumers and security researchers. There have been many attacks on the cloud in the recent past where the services got interrupted and consumer privacy has been compromised. Denial of Service (DoS) attacks effect the service availability to the genuine user. Customers are paying to use the cloud, so enhancing the availability of services is a paramount task for the service provider. In the presence of DoS attacks, the availability is reduced drastically. Such attacks must be detected and prevented as early as possible and the power of computational approaches can be used to do so. In the literature, machine learning techniques have been used to detect the presence of attacks. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed, where intelligent rule based feature selection and classification are performed for DoS attack detection in the cloud. The performance of the proposed system has been evaluated on an experimental cloud set up with real time DoS tools. It was observed that the proposed system achieved an accuracy of 98.46% on the experimental data for 10,000 instances with 10 fold cross-validation. By using this methodology, the service providers will be able to provide a more secure cloud environment to the customers.

  • The benefit of the scalability and flexibility inherent in cloud computing motivates clients to upload data and computation to public cloud servers. Because data is placed on public clouds, which are very likely to reside outside of the trusted domain of clients, this strategy introduces concerns regarding the security of sensitive client data. Thus, to provide sufficient security for the data stored in the cloud, it is essential to encrypt sensitive data before the data are uploaded onto cloud servers. Although data encryption is considered the most effective solution for protecting sensitive data from unauthorized users, it imposes a significant amount of overhead during the query processing phase, due to the limitations of directly executing operations against encrypted data. Recently, substantial research work that addresses the execution of SQL queries against encrypted data has been conducted. However, there has been little research on top-k join query processing over encrypted data within the cloud computing environments. In this paper, we develop an efficient algorithm that processes a top-k join query against encrypted cloud data. The proposed top-k join processing algorithm is, at an early phase, able to prune unpromising data sets which are guaranteed not to produce top-k highest scores. The experiment results show that the proposed approach provides significant performance gains over the naive solution.

  • Information technology plays an important role in healthcare. The cloud has several applications in the fields of education, social media and medicine. But the advantage of the cloud for medical reasons is very appropriate, especially given the large volume of data generated by healthcare organizations. As in increasingly health organizations adopting towards electronic health records in the cloud which can be accessed around the world for various health issues regarding references, healthcare educational research and etc. Cloud computing has many advantages, such as "flexibility, cost and energy savings, resource sharing and rapid deployment". However, despite the significant benefits of using the cloud computing for health IT, data security, privacy, reliability, integration and portability are some of the main challenges and obstacles for its implementation. Health data are highly confidential records that should not be made available to unauthorized persons to protect the security of patient information. In this paper, we discuss the privacy and security requirement of EHS as well as privacy and security issues of EHS and also focus on a comprehensive review of the current and existing literature on Electronic health that uses a variety of approaches and procedures to handle security and privacy issues. The strengths and weaknesses of some of these methods were mentioned. The significance of security issues in the cloud computing environment is a challenge.

  • 가상화 기술의 대표적인 특징은 사용자의 시스템 환경을 격리시킬 수 있고 컴퓨팅 자원을 사용자가 요구에 따라 유연하고 확장성 있게 지원할 수 있다는 점이다. 하지만 이미 잘 알려진 클라우드 컴퓨팅의 가상화 기술은 게스트 OS와 이를 관리하기 위한 하이퍼바이저 부하를 감수해야 한다. 이런 OS 기반의 가상화 문제점을 해결하기 위해 최근 컨테이너 기술이 부각되고 있다. 이 기술은 어플리케이션이 수행되는 프로세스를 격리화 시킴으로써 부하를 최소화 하면서 가상화와 유사한 환경을 구성할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 구축했던 클라우드 기반의 교육 실습 테스트 환경을 컨테이너 기반의 도커를 통해 구성하고자 한다. 이를 위해 교육 실습환경 구축시에 필요한 요구 사항을 분석하였다. 또한 컨테이너의 기능들을 분석하여 요구사항을 충족하기 위한 방법을 연구하였다. 이는 실습환경에 맞게 유연하고 확장성 있는 기존의 클라우드의 장점을 살리고, 성능부하의 이슈를 최소화함으로써 한정된 자원의 활용성을 최대화 할 수 있다.
