Designing efficient and secure electronic payment is important for M-Commerce. In this paper, we propose an efficient Micro-payment protocol that allows multiple transactions using ID-based public key encryption-system. The proposed payword system requires to generate authenticated key generated by Weil-pairing which uses an elliptic curve cryptosystem over finite field Fq for transactions. Therefore, it is more secure in known key attacks as well as man-in-the middle attacks.

Since one of weak points of public crypto-systems is to require the verification of public key, identity based crypto-systems were proposed as an alternative. However, such techniques need a private key generator which can be a single point of failure. To improve such weakness, threshold identity-based crypto-systems were proposed. In this paper, we propose a new threshold identity-based encryption scheme which is constructed to extend an identity-based encryption scheme by Cocks. Since the proposed scheme is based on quadratic residues, it has smaller complexity of encryption. And we prove that the proposed scheme is secure against a chosen identity attack.

An authenticated group key agreement protocol allows a group of parties communicating over an insecure network to share a common secret key. In this paper, we show that Zhou et al.'s ID-based authenticated group key agreement schemes do not provide forward secrecy.

The connection between devices in Ad-hoc network a network based on trust. Because a temporary device frequently join or leave, the authentication and security technology should be prepared for malicious device of a third-party attacks. The authentication scheme with the existing certification and ID, and the security technology using symmetric key and the public key is used. Therefore, in this paper we proposed two devices not having shared information use to generate each other's authentication ID. The use of authentication ID can establish the mutual trust and, provide security and efficiency for communication uses to generate a symmetric key.

Several identity-based and authenticated key agreement protocols have been proposed. It remains at issue to design secure identity based and authenticated key agreement protocols. In this paper, we propose a one round authenticated group key agreement protocol which uses one more key pair as well as the public key and private key of typical IBE(Identity-Based Encryption) system. The proposed protocol modified Shi et al.'s protocol and He et al.'s protocol. The public and private keys and the signature process of our protocol are simpler than them of their protocols. Our protocol is secure and more efficient than their protocols in communication and computation costs.

Recently, there are rapid development of information and communication and rapid growth of e-business users. Therefore we try to solve security problem on the internet environment which charges from wire internet to wireless internet or wire/wireless internet. Since the wireless mobile environment is limited, researches such as small size, end-to-end and privacy security are performed by many people. Wireless e-business adopts credit card WPP protocol and AIP protocol proposed by ASPeCT. WAP, one of the protocol used by WPP has weakness of leaking out information from WG which conned wire and wireless communication. certification chain based AIP protocol requires a lot of computation time and user IDs are known to others. We propose a Micro-Payment protocol based on credit card. Our protocol use the encryption techniques of the public key with ID to ensure the secret of transaction in the step of session key generation. IDs are generated using ECC based Weil Paring. We also use the certification with hidden electronic sign to transmit the payment result. The proposed protocol solves the privacy protection and Non-repudiation p개blem. We solve not only the safety and efficiency problem but also independent of specific wireless platform. The protocol requires the certification organization attent the certification process of payment. Therefore, other domain provide also receive an efficient and safe service.

이동 Ad Hoc 네트워크는 무선 채널 특성으로 인해 많은 보안상 위협에 노출될 수 있으므로 인증, 무결성, 기밀성 등의 보안 서비스를 제공하기 위한 키 관리 메커니즘이 요구된다. 그런데 Ad Hoc 네트워크는 중앙 집중적인 관리 노드의 부재, 동적인 위상 변화, 통신 자원의 제약 등의 특성을 고려하여 키 관리 메커니즘을 설계하도록 요구하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 클러스터 기반의 Ad Hoc 네트워크에서 ID 기반의 임계치 암호화 기법을 사용하여 공개키의 사전 분배 가정을 제거함으로써 토폴로지의 확장성과 유연성을 반영하고, 분산적이며 확장성있는 키분배 서비스가 가능하게 하였다. 또한 클러스터간에 교환되는 메시지의 무결성을 보장하기 위한 클러스터 MAC키 협상 방안, 헤드와 클러스터 내 특정 멤버간의 보안 채널 구축 통신하고자 하는 클러스터 멤버 호스트간에 안전하게 세션키를 생성, 분배하는 메커니즘 등을 제안하였다.

A group key agreement protocol allows a group of user to share a key which may later be used to achieve certain cryptographic goals. In this paper, we propose a new scalable two-round ID-based group key agreement protocol which would be well fit to a Pay-TV system, additionally. to the fields of internet stock quotes, audio and music deliveries, software updates and the like. Our protocol improves the three round poop key agreement protocol of Nam et al., resulting in upgrading the computational efficiency by using the batch verification technique in pairing-based cryptography. Also our protocol simplifies the key agreement procedures by utilizing ID-based system. We prove the security of our protocol under the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption and the Bilinear Decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption. Also we analyze its efficiency.

디지털 서명의 정당성을 검증하기 위해서는 서명자 공개키의 유효성을 인증해야 한다. 이 때, PKI 기반의 인증서를 통해 인증을 수행한다면, 무선 인터넷이라는 특성에 따른 보안상의 문제가 있을 뿐만 아니라 비효율적이다. 그런데 별도의 인증서 검증이 필요 없는 개인식별정보 자체를 공개키고 사용한다면 인증서 검증을 위한 무선 인터넷에서 유선 인터넷으로의 접속 없이 서명의 검증이 가능하게 되고, 무선망만을 이용한 통신이 가능하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같이 이동 통신 환경에 적합하도록 개인식별정보를 공개키고 사용하는 디지털 서명 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Mosts user of internet and smart phone has certificate, and uses it when money transfer, stock trading, on-line shopping, etc. Mosts user stores certificate in a hard disk drive of PC, or the external storage medium. In particular, the certification agencies are encouraged for user to store certificate in external storage media such as USB memory rather than a hard disk drive. User think that the external storage medium is safe, but when it is connect to a PC, certificate may be copied easily, and can be exposed to hackers through malware or pharming site. Moreover, if a hacker knows the user's password, he can use user's certificate without restrictions. In this paper, we suggest secure management scheme of the private key file using a password of the encrypted private key file, and a USB Memory's hardware information. The private key file is protected safely even if the encrypted private key file is copied or exposed by a hacker. Also, if the password of the private key file is exposed, USB Memory's container ID, additional authentication factor keeps the private key file safe. Therefore, suggested scheme can improve the security of the external storage media for certificate.
