In this paper, we proposed an effective technique that uses location-based encryption technique and spatial encryption technique to improve security vulnerabilities in previous reversible data hiding technique that can hide twice as much confidential data as the NSAS technique. If the proposed technique is applied to hide confidential data in an image, the same amount of confidential data can be hidden compared to the previous technique, but the security of confidential data is greatly enhanced. By hiding confidential data in an image using the proposed technique, high-quality stego-image can be generated, making it impossible to visually distinguish whether confidential data is hidden in the image. Additionally, confidential data can be restored from stego-image without loss, and the original cover image can also be restored without loss. Through experiments, it was confirmed that when confidential data is hidden by applying the proposed technique, the quality of the stego-image is maintained up to 39.73dB, and the security of the stego-image is greatly strengthened.

With increasing interest in ubiquitous computing technology, an infrastructure for the short-distance wireless communication has been extended socially, bringing spotlight to the security system using the image or location. In case of existing security system, there have been issues such as the occurrences of blind spots, difficulty in recognizing multiple objects and storing of the unspecified objects. In order to solve this issue, zone-based location-estimation search system for the image have been suggested as an alternative based on the real-time location determination technology combined with image. This paper intends to suggest the search service for the image zone-based location-estimation. For this, it proposed the location determination algorism using IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee's RSSI and for real-time image service, the RTP/RTCP protocol was applied. In order to combine the location and image, at the event of the entry of the specified target, the record of the time for image and the time of occurrence of the event on a global time standard, it has devised a time stamp, applying XML based meta data formation method based on the media's feature data based in connection with the location based data for the events of the object. Using the proposed meta data, the service mode which can search for the image from the point in time when the entry of the specified target was proposed.

This paper proposed a method that detects emergency situations in a video stream using MHI (Motion History Image) and template matching for a video-based intelligent security system. The proposed method creates a MHI of each human object through image processing technique such as background removing based on GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model), labeling and accumulating the foreground images, then the obtained MHI is compared with the existing MHI templates for detecting an emergency situation. To evaluate the proposed emergency detection method, a set of experiments on the dataset of video clips captured from a security camera has been conducted. And we successfully detected emergency situations using the proposed method. In addition, the implemented system also provides MMS (Multimedia Message Service) so that a security manager can deal with the emergency situation appropriately.

With the growing exchange of data between individuals and institutions through various electronic communication, valuable data protection is in high demand to ensure that it is not hacked and that privacy is protected. Many security techniques, such as encryption and steganography, have emerged to prevent security breaches. The purpose of this research is to integrate cryptographic and steganography techniques to secure text message sending. The Rijndael algorithm was used to encrypt the text message, and the Least Significant Bit algorithm was also used to hide the encrypted message in a color image. Experiments on the suggested method have proven that it can improve the security of sent messages due to the human eye's inability to identify the original image from the image after it has been covered, as well as the encryption of the message using a password.

The security of the image information is very important in many areas of the IoT(Internet of Things), and study a number of ways to display the security (copyright, etc.). In this paper, information of image that is used by the IoT is converted to a DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) and QC(Quantization Coefficient). And watermark (message) is to create a new encoded message(WMQR) through a QR Code. QC and WMQR applies LSB steganography techniques, can get the security (copyright, etc.) of image information. LSB steganographic techniques may be inserted according to a message (Watermark) to determine the location (Secret Key). The encoded image is sent to the recipient via the Internet. The reverse process can be obtained image and a QR code, a watermark (Message). A method for extracting a watermark from the security of the image information is coded using only the image and Secret Key, through the DCT and quantization process, so obtained by separating the watermark (Message) for the image. In this paper, we were able to improve the security of the method of image information, the image quality of the image by the simulations (PSNR), in turn, benefits were also normalized correlation (NC) and security.

As taking pictures by using smartphones has become more common in society, there are many incidents which are unexpected manipulation of images and leak of confidential information. Because of those incidents, demands that identify forgery/alteration of image file and proves of the original copy is constantly increasing. In general, smartphone saves image file as JPEG form and it has DQT which determines a compression rate of image in a header part of image. There is also DQT in Thumbnail image which inside of JPEG. In previous research, it identified a smartphone which take image by only using DQT, However, the research has low accuracy to identify the devices. There are two main purposes in this research. First, this research will analogize a smartphone and an application that takes a picture, edits and save an image file by testing not only about a DQT information but also a information of Thumbnail image. Second, the research will build a database of DQT and Thumbnail information in JPEG file to find more accurate image file's origin.

CAPTCHA is a verification scheme whether or not a human user has made a service request. Most CAPTCHAs that are based on text, image, or simple game suffer from vulnerability that can be compromised by automated attacks and stream relay attacks. To resist such attacks, CAPTCHA that utilizes human recognition as been suggested but it show poor usability for deploying in the Internet. We propose an Emerging Image Cue CAPTCHA that offers improved usability and resists stream relay attacks, as well. We also examine the usability of the proposed CAPTCHA and investigate the attack resistance by conducting user study and experiments on simulated network environment.

In this paper, we propose an improved optical security system using three phase-encoded images and the principle of interference. This optical system based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer consists of one phase-encoded virtual image to be encrypted and two phase-encoded images, encrypting image and decrypting image, where every pixel in the three images has a phase value of '0' and '$\pi$'. The proposed encryption is performed by the multiplication of an encrypting image and a phase-encoded virtual image which dose not contain any information from the decrypted image. Therefore, even if the unauthorized users steal and analyze the encrypted image, they cannot reconstruct the required image. This virtual image protects the original image from counterfeiting and unauthorized access.. The decryption of the original image is simply performed by interfering between a reference wave and a direct pixel-to-pixel mapping image of the encrypted image with a decrypting image. Both computer simulations and optical experiments confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed optical technique for optical security applications.
