As more users use mobile devices, shoulder surfing attacks have emerged as an important issue in security. According to research report, in fact, the result showed that about 30% of smartphone users are hit by shoulder surfing attacks. To this end, in this paper, we consider a shoulder surfing attack and propose a partially hidden password system to resistant to its attack. In order to help readers understand, we describe the proposed password system in more detail using one simple example. The core idea behind the proposed system is to place the user's password randomly in the specified grid instead of entering a password directly. As a result, even if an attacker makes a shoulder surfing attack to observe the password, the user can hide the preset password and defend against the attack. We also show how the security of the password system proposed in this paper is improved. In addition, even if there are consecutive shoulder surfing attacks, the security of the proposed password system is robust.

많은 기업에서 방대한 데이터를 안정적으로 처리하고 업무시스템을 통합하기 위하여 SOA(service oriented architecture) 기반의 ESB(enterprise service bus) 모델을 적용하고 있다. 그러나 SOA 구축을 위한 기존 웹 서비스 기술은 안전하게 데이터를 교환하기에는 한계가 있어 웹 서비스 보안 기술의 표준화가 진행되고 있지만, 실질적인 적용이 미흡한 상황이다. 이와 같은 환경으로 구축된 대규모 업무시스템을 사용하는 내부의 종단 사용자는 다양한 조직과 역할로 구성된다. 종단 사용자가 규정된 일정한 권한을 넘어 인가되지 않은 정보를 취득하여 개인의 이익이나 악의적인 목적으로 이용하고자 하는 경우 기업은 외부의 공격보다 더 큰 피해를 입을 수 있다. 본 논문은 종단 사용자가 이용하는 웹 서비스 기술의 보안 위협을 식별하여 대응 할 수 있는 보안 아키텍처를 제안하고자 한다.

웹 메일 시스템은 이동성이 뛰어나고 누구나 쉽게 사용할 수 있다는 장점으로 인해 차세대 전자우편 시스템으로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 기존의 웹 메일 시스템은 보안 메커니즘이 전혀 적용되고 있지 않거나, 보안 서비스를 제공한다 하더라도 그 강도가 약해 외부의 공격자에게 메일의 내용이 쉽게 노출되거나 위조 및 변조의 위험이 있다. 이와 같은 문제의 해결을 위해 본 논문에서는 전자우편 보안 국제 표준인 S/MIME에 기반한 안전한 웹 메일 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 안전한 웹 메일 시스템은 메일의 송수신 및 저장, 사용자 정보의 저장 등의 기능을 수행하는 서버 부분과 메일 작성 및 읽기, 암호화 및 전자서명 기능을 수행하는 클라이언트 부분으로 구성되어 있다. 기존의 보안 웹 메일 시스템에서는 메일에 대한 암호 연산이 웹메일 서버에서 수행되지만. 본 논문에서 설계 및 구현한 시스템에서는 송신자의 클라이언트 모듈에서 S/MIME에 기반하여 작성한 보안 메일을 서버로 전송하면 서버는 이를 수신자에게 전달하고, 수신자의 클라이언트모듈은 수신한 메일에 대한 복호화 및 전자서명 확인을 수행한다. 이와 같이 보안 메일의 작성을 비롯한 암호연산을 서버가 아닌 클라이언트 부분에서 처리하도록 함으로써 송신자와 수신자간의 End-to-End 보안을 가능하게 하여 안전성 및 신뢰성을 향상시키고 서버의 부하를 줄여 전체 시스템의 효율을 향상시켰다.

We propose to design a Holochain-based security and privacy protection system for resource-constrained IoT healthcare systems. Through analysis and performance evaluation, the proposed system confirmed that these characteristics operate effectively in the IoT healthcare environment. The system proposed in this paper consists of four main layers aimed at secure collection, transmission, storage, and processing of important medical data in IoT healthcare environments. The first PERCEPTION layer consists of various IoT devices, such as wearable devices, sensors, and other medical devices. These devices collect patient health data and pass it on to the network layer. The second network connectivity layer assigns an IP address to the collected data and ensures that the data is transmitted reliably over the network. Transmission takes place via standardized protocols, which ensures data reliability and availability. The third distributed cloud layer is a distributed data storage based on Holochain that stores important medical information collected from resource-limited IoT devices. This layer manages data integrity and access control, and allows users to share data securely. Finally, the fourth application layer provides useful information and services to end users, patients and healthcare professionals. The structuring and presentation of data and interaction between applications are managed at this layer. This structure aims to provide security, privacy, and resource efficiency suitable for IoT healthcare systems, in contrast to traditional centralized or blockchain-based systems. We design and propose a Holochain-based security and privacy protection system through a better IoT healthcare system.

The attack technique targeting end-users through phishing URLs is very dangerous nowadays. With this technique, attackers could steal user data or take control of the system, etc. Therefore, early detecting phishing URLs is essential. In this paper, we propose a method to detect phishing URLs based on supervised learning algorithms and abnormal behaviors from URLs. Finally, based on the research results, we build a framework for detecting phishing URLs through end-users. The novelty and advantage of our proposed method are that abnormal behaviors are extracted based on URLs which are monitored and collected directly from attack campaigns instead of using inefficient old datasets.

The history of computer virus comes along with that of computer. Computer virus han surfaced as a serious problem in information age. The advent of open network and widespread use of Internet made the problem even more urgent. As a method of defense for computer virus most companies use anti-virus software. Selecting appropriate anti-virus software involves various criteria and thus it is a multiple-attribute decision making problem. The purpose of this study is to prioritize anti-virus software evaluation factors. To do that, first of all, important evaluation factors are selected based on previous research on anti-virus software as well as general software evaluation models. Then, a questionnaire survey was conducted on end-users, system administrators and anti-virus software developers. The survey result was analyzed with ExpertChoice 2000 which is based on Analytic hierarchy Process technique. This study found that there are clear differences among three survey groups regarding the relative importance of overall evaluation factors. End-user group ranked "cost" first, but it was the least important factor to developer group. Developers pointed out "operational support" ad the most important factor. There were also obvious differences in the relative importance of detail evaluation items. Both end-users and system administrators shared 7 common items among top 10 most important items. Moreover, neither of the two groups ranked any of the items in the "operational support" factor in top 10, whereas all 4 items in the factor were included in top 10 by developer group.

One type of network security breach is the availability breach, which deprives legitimate users of their right to access services. The Denial of Service (DoS) attack is one way to have this breach, whereas using the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is the trending way to detect a DoS attack. However, building IDS has two challenges: reducing the false alert and picking up the right dataset to train the IDS model. The survey concluded, in the end, that using a real dataset such as MAWILab or some tools like ID2T that give the researcher the ability to create a custom dataset may enhance the IDS model to handle the network threats, including DoS attacks. In addition to minimizing the rate of the false alert.
