WiBro는 무선랜과 3G 이동통신의 장점을 결합한 휴대 인터넷 기술로 최근 국내에서 상용화 되었다. WiBro의 장점인 이동성과 고속 무선 통신에 기인하여, 향후 지속적인 발전이 기대된다. 이러한 WiBro의 확산에 따라 개인 사용자에 대한 보안문제가 최근 크게 부각되고 있다. 현재 Wibro는 3G 이동통신 및 무선랜과 효율적인 연동을 위해 EAP-AKA 인증기법을 사용하고 있다. 하지만 EAP-AKA는 단말이 기지국을 인증하지 못하는 치명적인 취약점이 있다. 따라서 공격자는 임의로 rogue BS를 설치할 수 있고, 정상 사용자의 데이터를 이종 네트워크로 보내는 Redirection Attack을 시도할 수 있다. Redirection Attack은 전송 속도 저하, Denial-of-Service (DoS) 을 초래하며, 데이터가 redirection 되는 이종 네트워크에 따라 암호화된 데이터가 노출될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 EAP-AKA와 Redirection Attack에 대해 분석하고, 그 해결책을 제시한다. 논문은 1) 프로토콜을 일부 수정하여 공격을 막는 방법과 2) traffic 분석을 통한 공격 탐지 방식을 다루고 있으며, 이러한 두 가지 방법을 통해 Redirection Attack에 대한 취약점을 근본적으로 제거할 수 있다.

네트워크에서 발생하는 다양한 침입 중에서 서비스거부공격(DoS Attack. Denial-of-Service Attack)이란 공격자가 침입대상 시스템의 시스템 자원과 네트워크 자원을 악의적인 목적으로 소모시키기 위하여 대량의 패킷을 보냄으로써 정상 사용자로 하여금 시스템이 제공하는 서비스를 이용하지 못하도록 하는 공격을 의미한다. 기존 연구에서는 시스템과 네트워크가 수신한 패킷을 분석한 후 네트워크 세션정보를 생성하여 DoS 공격을 탐지하였다. 그러나 이 기법은 공격자가 분산서비스거부공격(DDoS Attack: Distributed DoS Attack)을 하게 되면 분산된 세션정보가 생성되기 때문에 침입을 실시간으로 탐지하기에는 부적절하다. 본 논문에서는 시스템이 가지고 있는 자윈 중에서 DDoS 공격을 밭을 때 가장 민감하게 반응하는 시스템 자원을 모니터링 함으로써 DDoS 공격을 실시간으로 탐지할 수 있는 모델을 제안한다 제안 모델은 시스템이 네트워크에서 수신한 패킷을 처리하는 과정에서 소모되는 커널 메모리 소비량을 감사자료로 이용한 네트워치기반 비정상행위탐지(networked-based anomaly detection)모델이다.

To defeat abnormal traffic driven by DoS (Denial-of-Service) or DDoS (Distributed DoS), there has been a variety of researches or studies in a few decades. In this paper, we present the results of theoretical performance analysis between attack prevention schemes and attack mitigation schemes. The former is a scheme that prevents abnormal incoming traffic from forwarding into a specific network based on filtering rules, and the latter is a scheme that makes some perimeter or intermediate routers, which exist on the traffic forwarding path, prevent abnormal traffic based on their own abnormal traffic information, or that mitigates abnormal traffic by using quality-of-service mechanisms at the gateway of the target network. The aspects of theoretical performance analysis are defined as the transit rates of either normal traffic or false-positive traffic after an attack detection routine processes its job, and we also present the concrete network bandwidth rates to control incoming traffic.

One of the OSI 7 Layer DDoS Attack, HTTP POST DDoS can deny legitimate service by web server resource depletion. This Attack can be executed with less network traffic and legitimate TCP connections. Therefore, It is difficult to distinguish DDoS traffic from legitimate users. In this paper, I propose an anomaly HTTP POST traffic detection algorithm and http each page Content-Length field size limit with defense method for HTTP POST DDoS attack. Proposed method showed the result of detection and countermeasure without false negative and positive to use the r-u-dead-yet of HTTP POST DDoS attack tool and the self-developed attack tool.

A model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approach to implementing hardware-based network cybersecurity controls for APR1400 non-safety data network is presented in this work. The proposed design was developed by implementing packet filtering and deep packet inspection functions to control the unauthorized traffic and malicious contents. Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack was considered as a potential cybersecurity issue that may threaten the data availability and integrity of DCS gateway servers. Logical design architecture was developed to simulate the behavior of functions flow. HDL-based physical architecture was modelled and simulated using Xilinx ISE software to verify the design functionality. For effective modelling process, enhanced function flow block diagrams (EFFBDs) and schematic design based on FPGA technology were together developed and simulated to verify the performance and functional requirements of network security controls. Both logical and physical design architectures verified that hardware-based cybersecurity controls are capable to maintain the data availability and integrity. Further works focus on implementing the schematic design to an FPGA platform to accomplish the design verification and validation processes.

As cyber security threats increase, there is a growing demand for highly reliable systems. Common Criteria, an international standard for evaluating information security products, requires formal specification and verification of the system to ensure a high level of security, and more and more cases are being observed. In this paper, we propose highly reliable drone systems that ensure high level security level and trust. Based on the results, we use formal methods especially Z/EVES to improve the system model in terms of scheduling in the system kernel.

VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) 서비스는 기존의 음성전화 서비스(Public Switched Telephone Network, PSTN)와 달리 IP 프로토콜을 이용한 저렴한 통신비용 등의 장점이 있는 음성통신 기술로써, 기존의 아날로그 음성전화 서비스를 대신하는 서비스이며, 새로운 인터넷 융합서비스로 많은 사용자가 이용하고 있다. 하지만 VoIP 서비스가 인터넷망을 이용함으로 IP Spoofing, DoS (Denial of Server) / DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service), 등의 여러 가지 보안의 문제점을 가지고 있다. VoIP 서비스에서 DDoS 공격은 Proxy 서버 등에 대량의 공격 메시지를 보냄으로써 서버의 자원을 고갈시켜 정상적인 서비스를 하지 못하게 한다. DoS, DDoS 공격 중 Invite Flooding 공격은 1분에 수천 개의 Invite 메시지를 보내 회선의 자원을 고갈시키는 공격이다. 특히 IP/Port 위조하여 공격 경우 공격 패킷 탐지하기 어려우므로 차단할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 VoIP의 DoS/DDoS 중 하나인 Invite Flooding 공격 시 SIP Proxy Server에서 메시지 분산시키는 방법과 MAC Address와 사용자 번호 등 IP 이외의 고정적인 사용자 정보를 확인하여 공격을 탐지하고, 공격 Agent에 감염된 Phone을 공격차단서비스로 보내 복구시키는 방법을 제안한다.

Recently, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, such as spreading malicious code, cyber-terrorism, have occurred in government agencies, the press and the financial sector. DDoS attacks are the simplest Internet-based infringement attacks techniques that have fatal consequences. DDoS attacks have caused bandwidth consumption at the network layer. These attacks are difficult to detect defend against because the attack packets are not significantly different from normal traffic. Abnormal traffic is threatening the stability of the network. Therefore, the abnormal traffic by generating indications will need to be detected in advance. This study examined the abnormal traffic detection technique using a forecasting model-based trend model.

The network capability to accomplish its functions in a timely fashion under failures and attacks is known as survivability. Ad hoc routing protocols have been studied and extended to various domains, such as Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs), Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), underwater acoustic networks, and Internet of Things (IoT) focusing on different aspects, such as security, QoS, energy. The existing solutions proposed in this domain incur substantial overhead and eventually become burden on the network, especially when there are fewer attacks or no attack at all. There is a need that the effectiveness of these routing protocols be analyzed in the presence of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks without any intrusion detection or prevention system. This will enable us to establish and identify the inherently stable routing protocols that are capable to survive longer in the presence of these attacks. This work presents a DoS attack case study to perform theoretical analysis of survivability on node and network level in the presence of DoS attacks. We evaluate the performance of reactive and proactive routing protocols and analyse their survivability. For experimentation, we use NS-2 simulator without detection or prevention capabilities. Results show that proactive protocols perform better in terms of throughput, overhead and packet drop.

The recent past has seen a tremendous amount of advancement in the field of Internet of Things (IoT), allowing the influx of a variety of devices into the market. IoT devices are present in almost every aspect of our daily lives. While this increase in usage has many advantages, it also comes with many problems, including and not limited to, the problem of security. There is a need for better measures to be put in place to ensure that the users' data is protected. In particular, fitness trackers used by a vast number of people, transmit important data regarding the health and location of the user. This data is transmitted from the fitness device to the phone and from the phone onto a cloud server. The transmission from device to phone is done over Bluetooth and the latest version of Bluetooth Light Energy (BLE) is fairly advanced in terms of security, it is susceptible to attacks such as Man-in-the-Middle attack and Denial of Service attack. Additionally, the data must be stored in an encrypted form on the cloud server; however, this proves to be a problem when the data must be decrypted to use for running computations. In order to ensure protection of data, measures such as end-to-end encryption may be used. Homomorphic encryption is a class of encryption schemes that allow computations on encrypted data. This paper explores the application of homomorphic encryption for fitness trackers.
