  • One of the fastest-growing mobile services accessible today is mobile payments. For the safety of this service, the Near Field Communication (NFC) technology is used. However, NFC standard protocol has prioritized transmission rate over authentication feature due to the proximity of communicated devices. Unfortunately, an adversary can exploit this vulnerability with an antenna that can eavesdrop or alter the exchanged messages between NFC-enabled devices. Many researchers have proposed authentication methods for NFC connections to mitigate this challenge. However, the security and privacy of payment transactions remain insufficient. We offer a privacy-preserving, anonymity-based, safe, and efficient authentication protocol to protect users from tracking and replay attacks to guarantee secure transactions. To improve transaction security and, more importantly, to make our protocol lightweight while ensuring privacy, the proposed protocol employs a secure offline session key generation mechanism. Formal security verification is performed to assess the proposed protocol's security strength. When comparing the performance of current protocols, the suggested protocol outperforms the others.

  • Internet of Things (IoT) services are widely used in appliances of daily life and industries. IoT services also provide various conveniences to users and are expected to affect value added of all industries and national competitiveness. However, a variety of security threats are increased in IoT environments and lowers reliability of IoT devices and services that make some obstacles for commercialization. The attacks arising in IoT environments are making industrial and normal life accidents unlike existing information leak and monetary damages, and can expand damage scale of leakage of personal information and privacy more than existing them. To solve these problems, we design a session key based access control scheme for secure communications in IoT environments. The proposed scheme reinforces message security by generating session key between device and access control network system. We analyzed the stability of the proposed access scheme in terms of data forgery and corruption, unauthorized access, information disclosure, privacy violations, and denial of service attacks. And we also evaluated the proposed scheme in terms of permission settings, privacy indemnity, data confidentiality and integrity, authentication, and access control.

  • As a way for defending against cyber security threats, there has been a research on cybersecurity information exchange between security management domains in order to raise security performance of the whole network. One of the hottest issues in exchanging cybersecurity information between security management domains is that the requirements of those domains on information sharing are different with each other because each is autonomous domain. This paper proposes a mechanism for effective cybersecurity Information exchange between independent security management domains, which can satisfy their requirements on information sharing through sharing policy and sharing policy control protocol, proposed in this paper. In this paper we have developed an integrated security control system that supports the proposed mechanism. Through the system the performance of the proposed mechanism is measured and evaluated.

  • Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a network architecture, which has no backbone network and is deployed temporarily and rapidly in emergency or war without fixed mobile infrastructures. All communications between network entities are carried in ad-hoc networks over the wireless medium. Due to the radio communications being extremely vulnerable to propagation impairments, connectivity between network nodes is not guaranteed. Therefore, previously developed routing algorithms in wired networks cannot be used. And many new algorithms have been undergone. This study proposes the secondary leader approach to the cluster based routing protocol(CBRP). In case, the primary leader becomes abnormal status so that the primary leader cannot participate the communications between network entities, the secondary leader immediately replaces the primary header without selecting process of the new primary leader. The performances of proposed algorithm ACBRP(Advanced Cluster. Based Routing Protocol;CBRP using secondary leader) are compared with CBRP and results are presented in order to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

  • The remarkable advancement of quantum steganography offers enhanced security for quantum communications. However, there is a significant concern regarding the potential misuse of this technology. Moreover, the current research on identifying malicious quantum steganography is insufficient. To address this gap in steganalysis research, this paper proposes a specialized quantum steganalysis algorithm. This algorithm utilizes quantum machine learning techniques to detect steganography in general quantum secure communication schemes that are based on pure states. The algorithm presented in this paper consists of two main steps: data preprocessing and automatic discrimination. The data preprocessing step involves extracting and amplifying abnormal signals, followed by the automatic detection of suspicious quantum carriers through training on steganographic and non-steganographic data. The numerical results demonstrate that a larger disparity between the probability distributions of steganographic and non-steganographic data leads to a higher steganographic detection indicator, making the presence of steganography easier to detect. By selecting an appropriate threshold value, the steganography detection rate can exceed 90%.

  • XaaS (Everything as a Service) provides re-usable, fine-grained software components like software, platform, infra across a network. Then users usually pay a fee to get access to the software components. It is a subset of cloud computing. Since XaaS is provided by centralized service providers, it can be a target of various security attacks. Specially, if XaaS becomes the target of APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attack, many users utilizing XaaS as well as XaaS system can be exposed to serious danger. So various solutions against APT attack are proposed. However, they do not consider all aspects of security control, synthetically. In this paper, we propose overall security checkup considering technical aspect and policy aspect to securely operate XaaS.

  • Internet of Things(IoT) technologies should be able to communication with various embedded platforms. We will need to select an appropriate cryptographic algorithm in various embedded environments because we should consider security elements in IoT communications. Therefore the lightweight block cryptographic algorithm is essential for secure communication between these kinds of embedded platforms. However, the lightweight block cryptographic algorithm has a vulnerability which can be leaked in side channel analysis. Thus we also have to consider side channel countermeasure. In this paper, we will propose the scenario of side channel analysis and confirm the vulnerability for HIGHT algorithm which is composed of ARX structure. Additionally, we will suggest countermeasure for HIGHT against side channel analysis. Finally, we will explain how much the effectiveness can be provided through comparison between countermeasure for AES and HIGHT.

  • Recently internal information leakage in industries is severely increasing in spite of industry security policy. Thus, it is essential to prepare an information leakage prevention measure by industries. Most of the leaks result from the insiders, not from external attacks. In this paper, a real-time internal information leakage prevention system via both storage and network is implemented in order to protect confidential file leakage. In addition, a Hadoop-based user behavior analysis and statistics system is designed and implemented for storing and analyzing information log data in industries. The proposed system stores a large volume of data in HDFS and improves data processing capability using RHive, consequently helps the administrator recognize and prepare the confidential file leak trials. The implemented audit system would be contributed to reducing the damage caused by leakage of confidential files inside of the industries via both portable data media and networks.
