As computers and networks become popular, distributing information on the Internet is common in our daily life. Also, the explosion of the Internet, of wireless digital communication and data exchange on Internet has rapidly changed the way we connect with other people. But secure mail is gaining popularity abroad and domestically because of their nature of providing security. That is. It has been used a variety of fields such as general mail and e-mail for advertisement. But, As the data transmitted on network can be easily opened or forged with simple operations. Most of existing e-mail system don't have any security on the transmitted information. Thus, security mail system need to provide security including message encryption, content integrity, message origin authentication, and non-repudiation. In this paper, we design and implement secure mail system with secure key agreement algorithm, non-repudiation service, and encryption capability to provide services for certification of delivery and certification of content as well as the basic security services.

PKI Internet banking is used to have users register their public keys with the banking server together with the identity information, and verify the signature for both user and transaction authentications by using the registered public keys. Although the Blockchain-based financial systems such as Bitcoin adopt similar digital signature-based authentication scheme, there is no server that participants can register public keys with because they perform P2P payment transactions. The purpose of this paper is to identify the advantages and disadvantages of the Blockchain-based payment transactions by analyzing the differences between the most common PKI Internet banking and Blockchain payment systems. Based on the analysis, this paper suggests the issues that need to be enhanced from the aspects of architecture and security in order for Blockchain payment transaction systems to be applied universally.

Web service is defined to support interoperable machine to machine interaction over a network and defined as distributed technologies. Recently in web service environment, security has become one of the most critical issues. An attacker may expose user privacy and service information without authentication. Furthermore, the users of web services must temporarily delegate some or all of their behalf. This results in the exposure of user privacy information by agents. We propose a delegation model for providing safety of web service and user privacy in ubiquitous computing environments. In order to provide safety of web service and user privacy, XML-based encryption and a digital signature mechanism need to be efficiently integrated. In this paper, we propose web service management server based on XACML, in order to manage services and policies of web service providers. For this purpose, we extend SAML to declare delegation assertions transferred to web service providers by delegation among agents.

The smart card with the cryptography and VLSI technologies makes it possible to implement the electronic cash easily. A number of electronic each schemes have been proposed by many cryptographic researchers. In this paper, we propose a practical electronic cash system, using blind digital signature scheme. Schnorr's authentication scheme based on the discrete logarithm problem, and the hierarchical cash tree based on two one-way hash functions for dividable payment. Thisf electronic cash scheme has such properties as privacy of the payment, off-line payment, non-reuseability of cash, transferability of cash to another customer, and dividable payment of cash. This electronic cash protocol is well suited for implementing in smart card.

This paper describes an efficient method to implement a hardware circuit of RSA public key cryptographic algorithm, which is important to public-key cryptographic system for an authentication, a key exchange and a digital signature. The RSA algorithm needs a modular exponential for its cryptographic operation, and the modular exponential operation is consists of repeated modular multiplication. In a numerous algorithm to compute a modular multiplication, the Montgomery algorithm is one of the most widely used algorithms for its conspicuous efficiency on hardware implementation. Over the past a few decades a considerable number of studies have been conducted on the efficient hardware design of modular multiplication for RSA cryptographic system. But many of those studies focused on the decrease of operating time for its higher performance. The most important thing to design a hardware circuit, which has a limit on a circuit area, is a trade off between a small circuit area and a feasible operating time. For these reasons, we modified the Montgomery algorithm for its efficient hardware structure for a system having a limit in its circuit area and implemented the refined algorithm in the IESA system developed for ETRI's smart card emulating system.

The importance of software is increasing due to the development of information and communication, and software copyright disputes are also increasing. In this paper, the source of the submitted programs and the files necessary for the execution of the program were taken as the scope of analysis. The large-capacity file transfer solution program to be analyzed provides additional functions such as confidentiality, integrity, user authentication, and non-repudiation functions through digital signature and encryption of data.In this paper, we analyze the program A, program B, and the program C. In order to calculate the program similarity rate, the following contents are analyzed. Analyze the similarity of the package structure, package name, source file name in each package, variable name in source file, function name, function implementation source code, and product environment variable information. It also calculates the overall similarity rate of the program. In order to check the degree of agreement between the package structure and the package name, the similarity was determined by comparing the folder structure. It also analyzes the extent to which the package structure and package name match and the extent to which the source file (class) name within each package matches.

The flow of global digitalization is leading to the emergence of a decentralized system environment based on blockchain or distributed ledger technology in the fields of economy, identity authentication, and logistics. Accordingly, a requirement that public services be searchable from several decentralized maritime service registries (MSRs) has been derived in terms of the discoverability of e-navigation services. This study describes a decentralized MSR environment composed of the MSR ledger and multiple local MSRs, and it has implemented a service search system that can search global e-navigation services in the environment through a web browser. This system is a decentralized application that dynamically generates service attributes, geometry information, and free text queries, and that provides users with relevant MSR and service access information from search results that are registered in the MSR ledger. In this study, we tested the established decentralized MSR environment and the system that performs service search within that environment, and we discussed its advantages and limitations.

Korean Government-PKI (GPKI) is a public-key infrastructure which provides authentication and security functions for information system used by central government, local governments, and public institutions of the Republic of Korea to provide their own administrative and public services. The current cryptosystem of GPKI was established in the early 2000s, and more than ten years have passed since the last improvement in 2010. Over the past decade or so, the information security, including cryptography, has undergone many changes and will continue to face many changes. Therefore, for the sustainable security of GPKI, it is necessary to review the security of the cryptosystem at this point. In this paper, we analyze the current status and the security of technologies and standards used in the system. We identify cryptographic algorithms with degraded security, international standards which are obsoleted or updated, and cryptographic parameters that should be revised for the high security level. And based on this, we make several suggestions on the reorganization of cryptographic algorithms and related technologies for the security enhancement of GPKI.

In today's business landscape, collaboration and interoperability are crucial for organizational success and profitability. However, integrating operations across multiple organizations is challenging due to differing roles and policies in Identity and Access Management (IAM). User-centric identity (UCI) adopts a personalized approach to digital identity management, centering on the end-user for authentication and access control. It provides a decentralized system that ensures secure and customized access for each user. UCI aims to address complex security challenges by aligning access privileges with individual user requirements. This research delves into UCI's ability to streamline resource access amidst conflicting IAM roles and protocols across various organizations. The study presents a UCI-based multi-domain access control (MDAC) framework, which encompasses an ontology, a unified method for articulating access roles and policies across domains, and software services melding with UCI infrastructure. The goal is to enhance organizational resource management and decision-making by offering clear guidelines on access roles and policy management across diverse domains, ultimately boosting companies' return on investment.
