A new secret-key-sharing cryptosystem using optical phase-shifting digital holography is proposed. The proposed secret-key-sharing algorithm is based on the Diffie-Hellman key-exchange protocol, which is modified to an optical cipher system implemented by a two-step quadrature phase-shifting digital holographic encryption method using orthogonal polarization. Two unknown users' private keys are encrypted by two-step phase-shifting digital holography and are changed into three digital-hologram ciphers, which are stored by computer and are opened to a public communication network for secret-key-sharing. Two-step phase-shifting digital holograms are acquired by applying a phase step of 0 or ${\pi}/2$ in the reference beam's path. The encrypted digital hologram in the optical setup is a Fourier-transform hologram, and is recorded on CCDs with 256 quantized gray-level intensities. The digital hologram shows an analog-type noise-like randomized cipher with a two-dimensional array, which has a stronger security level than conventional electronic cryptography, due to the complexity of optical encryption, and protects against the possibility of a replay attack. Decryption with three encrypted digital holograms generates the same shared secret key for each user. Schematically, the proposed optical configuration has the advantage of producing a kind of double-key encryption, which can enhance security strength compared to the conventional Diffie-Hellman key-exchange protocol. Another advantage of the proposed secret-key-sharing cryptosystem is that it is free to change each user's private key in generating the public keys at any time. The proposed method is very effective cryptography when applied to a secret-key-exchange cryptosystem with high security strength.

In this paper, H.235-based security mechanism for H.323 multimedia applications was implemented. H.235 covers authentication using HMAC, Diffie-Hellman key exchange, session key management for voice channel, and encryption functions such as DES, 3DES, RC2. Extra encryption algorithms such as SEED, and AES were also included for possible use in the future. And, we also analyzed the quality of service (QoS), the requirement of implementation, and interoperability to the result in this study. The results could be applied to secure simple IP phone terminals, gateways, or gatekeepers.

To achieve security in wireless sensor networks(WSN), it is important to be able to encrypt and authenticate messages sent among sensor nodes. Due to resource constraints, many key agreement schemes used in general networks such as Diffie-Hellman and public-key based schemes are not suitable for wireless sensor networks. The current pre-distribution of secret keys uses q-composite random key and it randomly allocates keys. But there exists high probability not to be public-key among sensor nodes and it is not efficient to find public-key because of the problem for time and energy consumption. To remove problems in pre-distribution of secret keys, we propose a new cryptographic key management protocol, which is based on the clustering scheme but does not depend on probabilistic key. The protocol can increase efficiency to manage keys because, before distributing keys in bootstrap, using public-key shared among nodes can remove processes to send or to receive key among sensors. Also, to find outcompromised nodes safely on network, it selves safety problem by applying a function of lightweight attack-detection mechanism.

In the paper, designed digital contents security module to check unlawfulness reproduction and distribution of digital contents. This paper applied Diffie-Hellman algorithm that use discrete logarithm and random number as primary for public key application to create encryption key that agree each other through communication channel between DCPS and HOST, and applied Triple DES repeat DES 3 times through 2 different encryption key that is selecting ANSI X9.17 that is key management standard, ISO 8732 and PEM(Privacy-Enhanced Mail) etc. by secondary protection for safe transmission of digital contents in transmission line. Designed security module consist of key exchange module, key derivation module and copy protection processing module. Digital contents security module that design in this thesis checks reproduction and distribution of digital contents by unauthenticated user through user certification function and digital contents encryption function, and protect digital contents transmission line.

A non-interactive key exchange protocol provides an efficiency of overall system by eliminating additional communication. However, traditional non-interactive key exchange protocols without updating a private key fail to provide forward secrecy, since there is no usage of ephemeral key for randomness of session key. In 2012, Sang et al. proposed a certificateless non-interactive key exchange(CL-NIKE) protocol, but they do not prove the security of the protocol and it does not provide forward secrecy. In this paper, we propose a new CL-NIKE protocol and it's security model. Then we prove the proposed protocol is secure under the security model based on DBDH(Decision Bilinear Diffie-Hellman) assumption. Moreover, we propose a CL-NIKE protocol with forward secrecy which updates user's private key by using multilinear map and prove it's security.

MPTCP(Multipath Transmission Control Protocol) is able to compose many TCP paths when two hosts connect and the data is able to be transported through these paths simultaneously. When a new path is added, the authentication between both hosts is necessary to check the validity of host. So, MPTCP exchanges a key when initiating an connection and makes a token by using this key for authentication. However the original MPTCP is vulnerable to MITM(Man In The Middle) attacks because the key is transported in clear text. Therefore, we applied a ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman) key exchange algorithm to original MPTCP and replaced the original key to the ECDH public key. And, by generating the secret key after the public key exchanges, only two hosts is able to make the token using the secret key to add new subflow. Also, we designed and implemented a method supporting encryption and decryption of data using a shared secret key to apply confidentiality to original MPTCP.

In mobile and secure military networks, full-meshed IPSec tunnels, which do correspond to not physical links but logical links between each IPSec device and its peer, are required to provide multicast communications. All IPSec devices need support in changing IPSec tunnels by a way of using a multicast group key which is updated dynamically. Tactical terminals, which often constitute a group, need also secure multicast communications in the same group members. Then, the multicast group key is required to be updated dynamically in order to support group members' mobility. This paper presents challenging issues of designing a secure and dynamic group key management of which concept is based on the Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange algorithm and key trees. The advantage of our dynamic tree based key management is that it enables the dynamic group members to periodically receive status information from every peer members and effectively update a group key based on dynamically changing environments.

Several variants of the Diffie-Hellman public key distribution are examined, and a simple and relatively secure public key distribution protocol is introduced. Using a normal basis of GF(2$^{m}$ ), this protocol is implemented, and simulated in software. A program is developed, whereby a normal basis is effectively searched for fast multiplication in GF(2$^{m}$ ).

Seo와 Sweeny는 통신 당사자간의 직접적인 세션키(session key) 교환을 위해 SAKA(Simple Authenticated Key Agreement Algorithm)를 제안했다. SAKA는 패스워드(password)를 사용하여 사용자인증 기능을 제공하는 변형된 Diffie-Hellman 키 교환 프로토콜로써, 키 생성 및 사용자 인증 시 요구되는 계산량과 메시지 전송량을 고려할 때 효율적인 프로토콜이다. 그러나, 최근에 Lin은 SAKA의 안전성에 취약점이 있음을 지적하고 개선된 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 개선된 프로토콜이 여전히 재전송 공격(replay attack)에 안전하지 않기 때문에 사용자 인증을 제공 할 수 없음을 보인다.
