  • Recently, the security requirements of the embedded system which were not considered when the embedded system is independently deployed are being increased because the embedded system is connected to an internet. The connection to the internet of embedded system is the meaning that it is exposed to the various kinds of external attack and can be a victim to these attacks in anytime. Particularly, it is trend that the user-related information is stored into the personal terminals and/or electrical appliances such as PDA, home gateway for home network, settop boxes and so on. So it is needed the security mechanism which protects the user information from the malicious accesses. Accordingly, the coverage of the system security is being expanded from the general server to the embedded system. And it is not enough that the embedded system supports only its inherent functions and it becomes the essential element to provide the security function to the embedded system. This paper applies the RBAC(role-based access control) function to the embedded linux OS and tries to strengthen the security of the embedded linux OS. RBAC is implemented as a loadable kernel module with LSM(Linux Security Module) security framework for user's flexibility.

  • Recently, more users have been using IoT embedded systems. Since the wireless network function is a basic and core function in most embedded systems, new security threats and weaknesses are expected to occur. In order to resolve these threats, it is necessary to investigate the security issues in the development stages according to the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL). This study analyzes the vulnerabilities of the embedded systems equipped with the wireless network function, and derives possible security threats and how dangerous such threats are. We present security risks including bypassing the authentication stage required for accessing to the embedded system.

  • As the amount of flash memory being used in embedded device is increased and embedded devices become more important in many computing environments, embedded file system security becomes more important issue. Moreover embedded devices can be easily stolen or lost because of it's high portability. If the lost embedded device has very important information, there's no means to protect it except data encryption. For improving embedded devices' security this paper propose design and implementation of flash cryptographic file system. For this purpose YAFFS is used. By the modified YAFFS cryptographic file system, the security of embedded devices can be improved.

  • Currently embedded system has been widespreadly used in digital Set-top box, mobile phone, USN, etc and the significance of security has been increased due to be necessarily embedded in these all system. In this paper we propose new integrity verification scheme among the main security requirements in target system based on the korea TTA standard, security reference model for embedded operating system, published in december 2006. Moreover the proposed scheme is more effective than the previous scheme, Jung, et al.[2,6].

  • In this paper, we propose the integrated security management framework supporting the trust for the ubiquitous environments. The proposed framework provides the gathering and analysis of the security related information including the location of mobile device and then dynamically configures the security policy and adopts them. More specially, it supports the authentication and delegation service to support the trusted security management for the ubiquitous networks. This system also provides the visible management tools to give the convenient view for network administrator.

  • Home security has become the prime concern for everyone in present scenario. In this work an attempt has been made to develop a home security system which is accessible, affordable and yet effective.The proposed system is based on 'Remote Embedded Control System' (RECS) which works both on the web and gsm platform for authentication and monitoring. This system is therefore cost effective as it relies on existing network infrastructure. As PCA is most popular and efficient algorithm for face recognition, it has been usedin this work. Next to it an interface has been developed for communication purpose in the embedded security system through the ZigBee module. Based on this embedded system, automated control of door movement has been implemented through electromagnetic door lock technology. This helps the users to monitor the real-time activities through web services/SMS. The web service consists of either web browser command or e-mail provision. The system establishes the communication between the system and authenticated user. The e-mail received by the system from the authorized person will monitor and control the real-time operation and door lock. The entire control system is reinforced using ARM1176JZF-S microcontroller and tested for actual use in the home environment. The result shows the experimental verification of the proposed system.

  • This paper describes a new progressive embedded Internet Protocol(IP) camera available for real-time image transmission. It was applied for ship safety and security on seashore area. The functions of developed embedded system was more effective and excellent than conventional systems. Nowadays, each nation has established harbor security systems to jump up their ports to international port. Recently Incheon port has tried to change man security into center security system used by image security system. The security system of Incheon port has some advantages like effectivity of security system and reduction of manpower and cost, installed by image security system with CCTV cameras at the entrance gate and around the fence. Thus in this paper, we have designed and implemented a Personal Digital Assistants(PDA) based Image Surveillance System for Harbor Security using IP Camera under ubiquitous environment. This system has big advantages which are more effective in an emergency and low cost and small manpower than conventional systems.

  • The home network system of ubiquitous computing concept is changing present our home life as more comfortable and safe. Also, it permits that we can connect the home network system and control the appliance which is linked to the home network system without limitation in time and place. But, as other systems that use the public network like the Internet, remote control/monitoring of the home network system that use the Internet includes problems such as user's access which is not admitted and information changing. This paper presents the efficient solution about the security problem that is recognized to important problem of the home network system. Also this paper implements the security of the home network system based on the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play), adding VPN (Virtual Private Network) router that uses the IPsec to the home network system which is consisted of the ARM9 and the Embedded Linux.

  • Even though the Internet applications such as e-mail and FTP are widely used, fax is still an important media for data communications till today. Many researches on security over the Internet data communication have been done over the years, on the other hand not many researches have been dedicated to the fax security issue which is as important as the Internet. In this paper, we describe the development of hardware and software of the embedded security fax server which increases the security in supporting existing fax. The developed system is designed and implemented to maintain security while minimizing the delay due to encryptionㆍdecryption. Since there's international or domestic tryptographic standard and each nation have their policy to restrict the use of cryptographic system, we adopt domestic standard cryptographic protocol admitted in Korea. And the system supports two modes: Security mode and Non-Security mode that user can choose from. The system can be applied directly which is the requirements of users at company ,End the government. We verify the performance and functioning of the system in various real environment.

  • The object of this paper is to design a embedded system based on sensor networks. The proposed system can manage the heating by sensing and analyzing the temperature and humidity in apartment house and others. For implementing this system, we devide JAVA API into the platform-independent JAVA part and platform-dependent native part for the implementation of JAVA API to manage the linux based embedded system devices, and focus on the control of the embedded system devices using JAVA API.
