For all the various cryptographic techniques related to security, social technological attacks such as a shoulder surfing are infeasible to block off completely. Especially, the attacks are executed against financial facilities such as automated teller machine(ATM) which are located in public areas. Furthermore, online financial services whose rate of task management is consistently increasing are vulnerable to a shoulder surfing, smudge attacks, and key stroke inference attacks with google glass behind the convenience of ubiquitous business transactions. In this paper, we show that the security of ATM and internet banking can be reinforced against a shoulder surfing by using One-Time Keypad(OTK) and compare the security of OTK with those of ordinary keypad and One-Time Password(OTP).

A side-channel attack is a method of attacking a cipher based on physical information of a cryptographic device. The masking method, which is a typical method overcoming this attack, is a method of calculating an arbitrary masking value at the round intermediate value through rounds. Thus, it is difficult to guess the intermediate value by the side-channel attack, but if the masking operation is applied to all rounds of the encryption algorithm, the encryption process may become overloaded. Therefore, it is practical to use a reduced-round masking technique that applies a masking technique to only a part of the cipher for lightweight equipment such as Internet of Things(IoT) and wearable devices. In this paper, we describe a Hamming weight filtering for SIMON family with reduced-round masking technique and it is shown that first round key recovery is possible through actual programming.

For the past few years, personal information breach incidents, great and small, occurred constantly. Accordingly, the Personal Information Protection related Ordinances are enacted and amended persistently, and the information security products also keep advancing and developing in the same way. There are the certification systems such as Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation(CC) and Korea Cryptographic Module Validation Program(KCMVP) for the information security products. These are also strictly carried out. This paper analyzes and categorizes the 5 Personal Information Protection related Ordinances in the aspects of technical protection measures by using key words. Here are the 5 related ordinances; 'the Personal Information Protection Act', 'the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc', 'the Act on the Protection, Use, Etc, of Location Information', 'the Use and Protection of Credit Information Act', and 'the Electronic Financial Transactions Act.' Moreover, this study analyzes the association between the technical protection measures in the 5 relevant laws and the information security products that are obtaining the CC Evaluation & Validation(CC) and the products that are now produced at KISIA's member companies.

This paper presents the first hardware design of ARIA that KSA(Korea Standards Association) decided as the block encryption standard at Dec. 2004. The ARIA cryptographic algorithm has an efficient involution SPN (Substitution Permutation Network) and is immune to known attacks. The proposed ARIA design based on 1 cycle/round include a dual port ROM to reduce a size of circuit md a high speed round key generator with barrel rotator. ARIA design proposed is implemented with Xilinx VirtexE-1600 FPGA. Throughput is 437 Mbps using 1,491 slices and 16 RAM blocks. To demonstrate the ARIA system operation, we developed a security system cyphering video data of communication though Internet. ARIA addresses applications with high-throughput like data storage and internet security protocol (IPSec and TLS) as well as IC cards.

In this paper, a merged TEA block cipher processor which unifies Tiny Encryption Algorithm(TEA), extended Tiny Encryption Algorithm(XTEA) and corrected block TEA(XXTEA) is designed. After TEA cipher algorithm was first designed, XTEA and XXTEA cipher algorithms were designed to correct security weakness. Three types of cipher algorithm uses a 128-bit master key. The designed cipher processor can encrypt or decrypt 64-bit message block for TEA/XTEA and variable-length message blocks up to 256-bit for XXTEA. The maximum throughput for 64-bit message blocks is 137Mbps and that of 256-bit message blocks is 369Mbps. The merged TEA block cipher designed in this paper has a 16% gain on the area side compared to a lightweight LEA cipher. The cryptographic IP of this paper is applicable in security module of the mobile areas such as smart card, internet banking, and e-commerce.

An ad hoc network is a system of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically self-organize in arbitrary and temporary network topologies allowing people and devices to internetwork without any preexisting communication infrastructure. Although ad hoc network is attractive solution, there are still some major flaws that prevent commercial growth. Security is one of these main barriers; ad hoc networks are known to be particularly vulnerable to security attack. It is difficult to establish a centralized key distribution center and a trusted certification authority to provide cryptographic keys and digital certificates to nodes. To prevent attacks in ad hoc routing protocols, many algorithms have been used. In this paper, we have depicted a secure framework for multipath routing in wireless multihop network, which is comprehensive solution for secure data forwarding in wireless multihop networks. With the simulation results, the proposed scheme is compared with existing source routing scheme.

An attribute based signature system is a cryptographic system where users produce signatures based on some predicate of attributes, using keys issued by one or more attribute authorities. If a private key is leaked during signature generation, the signature can be forged. Therefore, signing operation computations should be performed using secure hardware, which is called tamper resistant hardware in this paper. However, since tamper resistant hardware does not provide high performance, it cannot perform many operations requiring attribute based signatures in a short time frame. This paper proposes a new attribute based signature system using high performance general hardware and low performance tamper resistant hardware. The proposed signature scheme consists of two signature schemes within a existing attribute based signature scheme and a digital signature scheme. In the proposed scheme, although the attribute based signature is performed in insecure environments, the digital signature scheme using tamper resistant hardware guarantees the security of the signature scheme. The proposed scheme improves the performance by 11 times compared to the traditional attribute based signature scheme on a system using only tamper resistant hardware.

The illegal copying and redistribution of digitally-stored information is a crucial problem to distributors who electronically sell digital data. fingerprinting scheme is a technique which supports copyright protection to track redistributors of electronic information using cryptographic techniques. Anonymous asymmetric fingerprinting scheme prevents the merchant from framing a buyer by making the fingerprinted version known to the buyer only. And this scheme allows the buyer to purchase goods without revealing her identity to the seller. In this paper, a new anonymous asymmetric fingerprinting scheme with TTP is introduced. The buyer's fingerprint is generated by the Fingerprint Certificate Authority which is a TTP. When the seller embeds the fingerprint in the digital data, the protocol uses the homomorphic encryption scheme. Thus the seller cannot know the buyer's fingerprint and the buyer's anonymity is guaranteed by using anonymous key pair.

Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is an extremely important part of information protection systems because it has outstanding safety among public key encryption algorithms. On the other hand, as ECC cannot obtain accurate values using a real number field because of the slow calculation and errors from rounding off, studies of ECC have focused on a finite field. If ECC can be extended to the real number field, more diverse keys can be selected compared to ECC only based on a finite field. Accordingly, in this paper, a method for constructing a cryptographic system with a high degree of safety is proposed through the diversification of keys selected by the user based on the operant extension method instead of extracting keys only using integer values.

The international standard signature algorithm DSA has been guaranteed its security based on discrete logarithm problem. Recently, the DSA was known to be vulnerable to some fault analysis attacks in which the secret key stored inside of the device can be extracted by occurring some faults when the device performs signature algorithm. After analyzing an existing fault attack presented by Bao et al., this paper proposed a new fault analysis attack by disturbing the random number. Furthermore, we presented a countermeasure to compute DSA signature that has its immunity in the two types of fault attacks. The security and efficiency of the proposed countermeasure were verified by computer simulations.
