  • In 2017, amid changes in the security market such as integrated security (IS) and convergence security (CS), a variety of security paradigms in terms of operation and management have been suggested. Rather than changing existing network infrastructure and bringing about fluid, multi-dimensional changes, these solutions and technologies focus entire security capacity on a primary protection, leading to network infrastructure suffering from unexpected inherent violations and problems in a continued manner. Therefore, it is time to propose and develop a flexible network section that can protect from attacks of similar pattern and concentrated traffic attacks by applying a new concept of WB (Water-Bubble) to network infrastructure and analyzing on the basis of experiment and installation. Methodology of the WB-based highly secure flexible network section proposed in this study is expected to provide materials for studies on how to achieve network section security taking into account three major limitations and security standards: fluidity, unpredictability, and non-area scalability by contact point ratio, by changing a network area predicted to be the final target of attack into resonant network section (area) with flexible area changes.

  • Existing web-based system management software solutions show some limitations in time and space. Moreover, hey possess such as shortcomings unreliable error message announcements and difficulties with real-time assistance supports and emergency measures. In order to solve these deficiencies, Wireless Remote Control System(W-RCS) was designed and implemented. W-RCS is able to manage and monitor remote systems by using mobile communication devices for instantaneous control. The implementation of W-RCS leads to these security problems as well as solutions to aforementioned issues with existing web-based system management software solutions. Therefore, this paper has focused on the security matters related to W-RCS. The security functions based on public key infrastructure include mobile device user authentication and target system access control. The W-RCS allows real-time user authentication, increases the flexibility of resource administrators and mobile device non, and provides not only uninterrupted services, but also safe mobile office environments.

  • e-Business in healthcare sector has been called e-Health, which is evolving into u-Health with advances of ubiquitous technologies. Seamless information sharing among health organizations is being discussed in many nations including USA, UK, Australia and Korea. Efforts for establishing the electronic health record (EHR) system and a nation-wide information sharing environment are called NHII (National Health Information Infrastructure) initiatives. With the advent of u-Health and progress of health information systems, information security issues in healthcare sector have become a very significant problem. In this paper, we analyze several issues on health information security occurring in u-Health environment and develop an information security standard for protecting health information. It is expected that the standard proposed in this work could be established as a national standard after sufficient reviews by information security experts, stakeholders in healthcare sector, and health professionals. Health organizations can establish comprehensive information security systems and protect health information more effectively using the standard. The result of this paper also contributes to relieving worries about privacy and security of individually identifiable health information brought by NHII implementation and u-Health systems.

  • Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) have become increasingly significant in intelligent transportation systems, they play a great role in improving traffic safety and efficiency. In the deployment of intelligent VANETs, intelligent vehicles can efficiently exchange important or urgent traffic information and make driving decisions. Meanwhile, secure data communication and vehicle's identity privacy have been highlighted. To cope with these security issues, in this paper, we construct an efficient anonymous authentication scheme with secure communication in intelligent VANETs. Combing the ElGamal encryption technique with a modified Schnorr signature technique, the proposed scheme provides secure anonymous authentication process for encrypted message in the vehicle-to-infrastructure communication model, and achieves identity privacy, forward security, and reply attack resistance simultaneously. Moreover, except the trusted authority (TA), any outside entity cannot trace the real identity of an intelligent vehicle. The proposed scheme is designed on an identity-based system, which can remove the costs of establishing public key infrastructure (PKI) and certificates management. Compared with existing authentication schemes, the proposed scheme is much more practical in intelligent VANETs.

  • To build an information oriented armed forces, the Korean military telecommunication networks adopt TCP/IP standard communication infrastructures based on ATM packet switched networks. Utilizing this network infrastructure, the Korean armed forces also applies to the areas of battleship management for efficient operation command controls and resource management for efficient resource allocations. In this military communication networks, it is essential to determine the least cost network topology under equal performance and reliability constraints. Basically, this type of communication network design problem is known in the literature as an NP Hard problem. As the number of network node increases, it is very hard to obtain an optimal solution in polynomial time. Therefore, it is reasonable to use a heuristic algorithm which provides a good solution with minimal computational efforts. In this study, we developed a simulated annealing based heuristic algorithm which can be utilized for the design of military communication networks. The developed algorithm provides a good packet switched network topology which satisfies a given set of performance and reliability constraints with reasonable computation times.

  • We analyzed security threats and suggested countermeasures about the block chain technologies which has emerged as a core technology of the fourth industrial revolution. We know that increasing the security leads to slow down program processing rate in the block chain systems. The block chain system which is currently an early stage of technological development, to become an economic and social infrastructure, development of technology and active policy implementation will be necessary. We studied on the security threats and countermeasures of the Bit Coin based on block chain. Further research should be undertaken on the possibility that future studies could have a real adverse effect on the integrity of the data.

  • Public Key Infrastructure(PKI) provides a strong authentication. Privilege Management Infrastructure(PMI) as a new technology can provide user's attribute information. The main function of PMI is to give more specified authority and role to user. To authenticate net and role, we have used digital signature. Role Based Access Control(RBAC) is implemented by digital signature. RBAC provides some flexibility for security management. NEIS(National Education Information System) can not always provide satisfied quality of security management. The main idea of the proposed RNEIS(Roll Based NEIS) is that user's role is stored in AC, access control decisions are driven by authentication policy and role. Security manager enables user to refer to the role stored in user's AC, admits access control and suggests DB encryption by digital signature.
