Described in this paper is a design of hardware accelerator for implementing public-key cryptographic protocols (PKCPs) based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) and RSA. It supports five elliptic curves (ECs) over GF(p) and three key lengths of RSA that are defined by NIST standard. It was designed to support four point operations over ECs and six modular arithmetic operations, making it suitable for hardware implementation of ECC- and RSA-based PKCPs. In order to achieve small-area implementation, a finite field arithmetic circuit was designed with 32-bit data-path, and it adopted word-based Montgomery multiplication algorithm, the Jacobian coordinate system for EC point operations, and the Fermat's little theorem for modular multiplicative inverse. The hardware operation was verified with FPGA device by implementing EC-DH key exchange protocol and RSA operations. It occupied 20,800 gate equivalents and 28 kbits of RAM at 50 MHz clock frequency with 180-nm CMOS cell library, and 1,503 slices and 2 BRAMs in Virtex-5 FPGA device.

The transmission of multimedia information over error-prone channels such as wireless networks has become an important area of research. In this paper, we propose two Error Concealment(EC) schemes for wireless transmission of JPEG2000 image. The Multiple Representation(MR) is employed as the preprocessing in our schemes, whereas the main error concealing operation is applied in wavelet domain at receiver side. The compressed code-stream of several subsampled versions of original image is transmitted over a single channel with random bit errors. In the decoder side, the correctly reconstructed wavelet coefficients are utilized to recover the corrupted coefficients in other sub-images. The recovery is carried out by proposed basic(MREC-BS) or enhanced(MREC-ES) methods, both of which can be simply implemented. Moreover, there is no iterative processing during error concealing, which results a big time saving. Also, the simulation results confirm the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed schemes.

In a seminal judgment of November 2002 (Case C-476/98) relating to the compatibility with Community laws of the 'nationality clause' in the 1996 amending protocol to the 1955 U.S.-German Air Services Agreement, the European Court of Justice(ECJ) decided that the provision constituted a measure of an intrinsically discriminatory nature and was thus contrary to the principle of national treatment established under Art. 52 of the EC Treaty. The Court, rejecting bluntly the German government' submissions relying on public policy grounds(Art. 56, EC Treaty), seemed content to declare and rule that the protocol provision requiring a contracting state party to ensure substantial ownership and effective control by its nationals of its designated airlines had violated the requirement of national treatment reserved for other Community Members under the salient Treaty provision. The German counterclaims against the Commission, although tantalizing not only from the perusal of the judgment but from the perspective of international air law, were nonetheless invariably correct and to the point. For such a clause has been justified to defend the 'fundamental interests of society from a serious threat' that may result from granting operating licenses or necessary technical authorizations to an airline company of a third country. Indeed, the nationality clause has been inserted in most of the liberal bilaterals to allow the parties to enforce their own national laws and regulations governing aviation safety and security. Such a clause is not targeted as a device for discriminating against the nationals of any third State. It simply acts as the minimum legal safeguards against aviation risk empowering a party to take legal control of the designated airlines. Unfortunately, the German call for the review of such a foremost objective and rationale underlying the nationality clause landed on the deaf ears of the Court which appeared quite happy not to take stock of the potential implications and consequences in its absence and of the legality under international law of the 'national treatment' requirement of Community laws. Again, while US law limits foreign shareholders to 24.9% of its airlines, the European Community limits non-EC ownership to 49%, precluding any ownership and effective control by foreign nationals of EC airlines, let alone any foreign takeover and merger. Given this, it appears inconsistent and unreasonable for the EC to demand, $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ a non-EC third State, national treatment for all of its Member States. The ECJ's decision was also wrongly premised on the precedence of Community laws over international law, and in particular, international air law. It simply is another form of asserting and enforcing de facto extraterritorial application of Community laws to a non-EC third country. Again, the ruling runs counter to an established rule of international law that a treaty does not, as a matter of principle, create either obligations or rights for a third State. Aside from the legal problems, the 'national treatment' may not be economically justified either, in light of the free-rider problem and resulting externalities or inefficiency. On the strength of international law and economics, therefore, airlines of Community Members other than the designated German and U.S. air carriers are neither eligible for traffic rights, nor entitled to operate between or 'free-ride' on the U.S. and German points. All in all and in all fairness, the European Court's ruling was nothing short of an outright condemnation of established rules and principles of international law and international air law. Nor is the national treatment requirement justified by the economic logic of deregulation or liberalization of aviation markets. Nor has the requirement much to do with fair competition and increased efficiency.

There are recently a lot of inconvenience because every client should be set to the proxy server on the browser in order to control the access by means of the client authentication in the proxy server. The client authentication technology using the transparency cache in this paper will be transparently used for every user in the internet which option of the authentication function is simply set in the cache server. In addition, the administrator will get the benefit since he can control the traffic of each client and strengthen the security. And also, this system is expected to use in the eCRM deeply rotated to the tendency of the client in the field of the e-commerce like shopping mall in the internet since the administrator can monitor the pattern of the client using the internet. This technique can be applied to the company affiliated research center, the EC website, and the military where it is essential for the tight security even though there are no additional security devices.

Information systems, which support information security functions such as CALS and EC systems, should have cryptographic functions for information in order to storage and communicate securely. Additionally, including recovery of lost keys, lots of cryptographic keys should be securely managed. In this paper, we present some results of development of a key recovery system for recovery of encrypted data. The proposed system, in a type of key encapsulation approach, confirms to NIST's RKRP(Requirements for Key Recovery Products) that is a defecto international key recovery standard, as well as CC 2.0 that is a international security evaluation criteria. A message sender secretly choices two or more key recovery agents from a pool of key recovery agents. The key recovery information is generated by using the recovering key, random keys and public keys of the chosen agents. A message receiver can not know which key recovery agents are involved in his key recovery service. We have developed two versions of prototype of key recovery system such as C/Unix and Java/NT versions. Our systems can be used for recovery of communicating informations as well as storing informations, and as a new security service solution for electronic commerce service infrastructures.

When a receiver of ciphertext message can not decrypt a message because he has lost his private-key, the private-key of receiver and session-key of the message should be recovered. In this paper, we developed an Encapsulation based Key Recovery System (EKRS). EKRS is a new key encapsulation based key recovery system which is characterized by secretly choice of KRA, randomized target keys. n-way recovery type, and useful for commercial key recovery. EKRS is formally specified by a pictorial model, an Extended Cryptographic Timed Petri Net (ECTPN). Secure information flow and reachability of a session-key are verified by using reachability graph of ECTPN. EKRS, executing over a Public Key Infrastructure, can be used as a security solution in Web based applications such as CALS, EC an EDI.

대부분의 안전한 운영체제는 주체와 객체에 보안 등급을 부여하여 운영하는 다중등급 정책(MLP: Multi-Level Policy)을 수용하고 있으며, BLP 모델은 이 정책을 표현하는 검증된 대표적인 모델이다. 하지만 이러한 다중 등급 보안 운영체제들은 접근 주체인 프로세스가 접근 객체로서 존재하는 등급화 된 프로그램을 실행 시 새로운 프로세스를 위한 보안 등급을 부여해야 하는데, 접근 주체와 접근 객체의 보안 등급이 다를 경우 보안 등급 결정 문제가 발생하며 정보보호의 목적에 위배되는 결과가 발생한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 위에 언급된 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방안을 BLP 모델 측면에서 고찰한다.

In the meantime Korean Insurance Industry has been developed a steady growth under government's political protection. But insurance market seems to be opened unavoidably owing to the liberalization of international trade by the Agreements of UR and the bloc of economy by EC Integration and the Organization of NAFTA. By the above reason, especially, in case of hull insurance, the rate of hull insurance is being instituted as a problem. Accordingly the recognition for the problem like this, in thsi study, explained the major objectives of rate making and described the basic rate making methods that are used in property and liability insurance, and searched the rate making schemes of hull insurance rate of the major nations by comparing method. And as a conclusion, the writer presented several schemes including new rate making scheme of hull insurance rate and the security of statistical data about loss ratio, and the establishment of Korean Hull Insurance Association.

With an increasing importance of the information security issues, the efficienct calculation process in terms of finite field level is becoming more important in the Elliptic curve cryptosystems. Serial multiplication architectures are based on the Mastrovito's serial multiplier structure. In this paper, we manipulate the numerical expressions so that we could suggest a 3-times as fast as (3x) the Mastrovito's multiplier using the polynomial basis. The architecture was implemented with HDL, to be evaluated and verified with EDA tools. The implemented 3x GF (Galois Field) multiplier showed 3 times calculation speed as fast as the Mastrovito's, only with the additional partial-sum generation processing unit.
